A little after the start.....

So this blog is starting a little after the decision was made (the making of a decision could have been it's own two year long blog) but here it is after much praying, waiting, thinking, and etc..

Before I say the decision that I made in February here are all the possibilities I considered, some more seriously than others but almost all with hours of Internet research and some with actual applications filled out and sent in.

Moving to Austin for graduate school.

Moving to Colorado Springs.

Moving to Miami for attempting graduate school.

Moving to New York for attempting graduate school.

Teaching in Indonesia.

Teaching in China. (Pretty much any Asian country that would pay me to teach English. Some actually keep calling me.)

Moving back home to Houston.

Moving to Minneapolis.

Trying to do the World Race for missions.

Joining the Peace Core.

Staying in Tulsa.

Staying in Tulsa but working at a different school.

Moving to Dallas.

Teaching in Dominican Republic (they said I didn't have enough experience)

After all of it........

I am moving to Nashville.

(It sounds even more official typed up.)

This one fell into my lap unexpectedly. (Story inserted below)

I want to go to grad school for a degree in International Education.Not many schools have that program All the other places that have it are either too cold, too expensive to live, or I do not know anybody. I was randomly reading a special education article online, one click lead to another and boom a little school called Vanderbilt has and it is in Nashville. Granted, Nashville I really only know two people, but that is better than no one.

So here it goes..... now leapings of faith to get a job, find a place to live and a roommate, make some friends, and get into Vandy for fall 2011.

Next time more on the title of the blog...........
