Wake Me Up

Well, as of this past Wednesday I am 21. It's kinda scary but somewhat surreal. Was up early for work, then went out for breakfast with me myself and I, internship, then Bible study. It was a long day, but well worth it.
Internship is going quite well. Love the people in the kitchen and they are awesome to work with, even when it rains for almost 24 hours and the basement starts to flood :)
Work is another story. I'm not getting many hours to begin with because of school and the fact the store isn't open after 5 in the evening, but I when I am there I feel like the GM is taking advantage of that. Feeling underappreciated and a lot has gone down in the past few days, and the next week or so to come, so combined with whatnot I am about two seconds away from quitting. I can't bring myself to do that though, leaving the store in a rut with other employees lessening their hours. The Panera nearby is hiring a cafĂ© associate, basically a general use person. It would be a huge blessing to get that job because then I could have more hours since they close later in the evening. It's also well within walking distance so I would be saving on gas too.
On a better note, the worship leader at church helps run the Bible study at school. I had mentioned to him that I was interested and have been watching rehearsals these past two Sundays. Church is starting up with Tuesday night services, same thing as Sunday mornings just on a different day. He asked me to sing harmony with another lady for this Tuesday and then Sunday and Tuesday following. It would awesome to be able to get that opportunity.  
It's been a hectic week altogether and I don't think the next couple are going to be any better.
I had heard this quote before, but a couple times it was mentioned at camp by some of the resident staff. In a nutshell it explains what I feel right now, and how I want to feel in the long run:

“If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world." C.S. Lewis
