The most engaging life I've ever had

exciting, fun, a little intimidating, definitely worth it.

Jehovah is God

Sunday night I went to bed and played my Songs of Deliverance CD by Jason Coghill and the last thing I heard before my radio turned off was "the sons of Judah are glad because you are God" and as I went to sleep I was comforted by the fact that no matter how my checkride went everything would always be great because God is and always will be God. It's a good thing too because I failed my checkride the next morning. I did accuracy landings first ~ the one manuver that I have been having trouble with all semester~ and after one try and a go-around it was like God took my plane and put it down within like five inches of the point I was trying to hit and it was so great! So I went out and did the rest of my stuff and came back for a few more landings. I did a short field landing just fine, but my soft field landing lost a gust right at stall speed so I touched down way to soon and my examiner had to fail me. But my instructor came over right away and we went right up and practiced for a quick hour and filled out all the re-check paperwork and everything, and I passed my second try!!! The cool thing about checkrides is that if you only mess up on one part, you only have to do that part over instead of re-doing the whole thing. So I did the whole second flight in 18 minutes and now I am a Commercial pilot.

So I came home right away (after two hours of trying to put all my stuff in my car) and now I am trying to stock up on real food.

And I already have my two jobs lined up! Both Mr. Cutter and Sam's were cool with me working less than eight hours apiece for them so I can get eleven hour days now!
