business trips and rainstorms

well, it's been quite sometime since i last posted anything, and i thought tonight might be a good time to break that streak. as many of you know, i went to minneapolis, minnesota last thursday and friday for a job interview at the corporate headquarters for target. honestly, i felt the interview went really well. i'm super excited because this seems like a really great job opportunity on top of the fact that i would keep doing my own fine art photography on top of the job. so i'm pretty happy about that.

the big news is that they told me i would be contacted by tomorrow, and since i haven't heard anything yet, i'm assuming that means i will hear from them tomorrow. it's really strange, in the past, i would have been freaking out about this, and worried and nervous, but i feel like God has really put me at ease about it all. case in point, the rainstorm going on right now. i just went outside a little while ago and sat on the porch for a while and watched the rain and listened and thought. rain always has a really calming effect on me, even during massive thunderstorms (kinda like this one was a while ago). i'm not really sure why the calm me, but they do. so i just went outside and revelled in the fact that this thunderstorm was like a calming gift from God. so as i sat there, i just thought, and listened, and i can't say that anything profound came, other than it felt like a short, intimate time between me and God. i haven't had a lot of those lately with all of the craziness associated with my graduation coming up, so it was nice to just kick back and relax for a little bit.

i'm sure that in a few hours there will be another post, relating to the world what happened with target. until then however, i'm going to sleep.
