Adventures in F/A school


So Today is day 3 of 18 and I am finally getting to write a blog!!! that's how busy we have been!! It's crazy! But I have been doing great. We have had 3 test and I have passed all 3! With flying colors! haha day one was just A LOOOOOOOOOOT of paperwork! and crazy confusion! Day two was a little better but still, some crazy confusion. We got to go to the hanger last night and walk around on an empty plane! that was super fun! (I have pics down below to show my adventures.) And we get to go again tomorrow night. and every time we go, it's really late at night! like 10pm! lol and, we are there for a couple hours! so it's been some crazy hours here so far. But non-the-less, I am having a good time. Missing my family and friends a ton though. So I can't wait to go home and see everyone! =)

Up, up and away!

So as I am sitting here at my current job, listening to the drilling and re-construction of the office... I ponder to think...
I found out about a week ago that I got accepted to join the Republic Airways. Which means... I GOT THE JOB! haha I start training for the flight attendant position a week from today and I am having mixed emotions about it. I am supper excited to have this opportunity of a lifetime don't get me wrong, but I am also kinda sad right now. I feel like I have supporters on my side during this endeavor, but I also feel like I have people that are starting to be distant and not really care. Almost like they are mad I am achieving my dream and they aren't. Which hurts. Aren't you supposed to be loving and supportive towards your friends no matter what??? I breaks my heart a little to know that I have 'friends' like that. It's like I sit there and cry cuz I am sad that I am leaving them, but they just sit there, not even noticing that I am sad or upset. and then they distance them selves from me. Like they are just SO busy!
I said a prayer last night... My prayer did consist of my trip and that I am hoping I make it through training. but it mainly consisted of my friends. I prayed for all my friends. and each prayer was different, but still it was for them. Sometimes I wonder if they do they same?
I'm not trying to sound selfish or act all 'high and mighty'... I just am writing down all the thoughts that have been running through my head for the past couple days. and I'm not going to apologize cuz they are just thoughts. Every time I think of something like that though, I ask God to take it away. But it still kind of hurts, ya know...

Offically freaking out!!

OK, I am officially freaking out right now. I just received my confirmation for my flight to go to Indianapolis for the Flight attendant interview, and it is really sinking in that I am flying there tomorrow!!!! AND there might be a huge chance that they want me right away and I would be moving to somewhere unknown, and I would be totally alone. I am trying not to cry as I right this cuz I am totally going to miss everyone here. I have loving family and friends here that are the most important people in my life. but I need to follow my dreams. I will try to visit as often as possible. But I know that this is the direction that God is wanting me to take. I can just feel his presence when I am thinking about this.
I love how when you totally rely on God and his love for you, things HAPPEN!
