Barista: a person who works at the counter of a coffee shop

You are looking at Starbucks' newest barista!!

I know, it seems silly that I got a college degree and I am working at Starbucks and excited about it. But....I just don't know what I want to be when I grow up yet. I have auditioned for the Dallas Opera Chorus and have an audition for the Houston Opera Chorus next week, although that won't cut it on it's own even if they want me. So, Starbucks has great benefits, long hours, and coffeee!!!!

I have been praying about my future for a while now, cause I know if I didn't let God take this situation, I would be totally lost and overwhelmed. I knew He would take care of things. I didn't get the internship I applied for in Santa Fe, which I knew God was in control, and I guess He didn't want me there. I applied for other jobs and haven't heard back yet, but Starbucks came so easy (and it's sorta hard to get a job at Starbucks!) and I really feel at peace about being there. I think that with something I have been diligently praying about, and that's important to me God wouldn't just let anything happen. He has a plan. Maybe this could fulfill one of my ministries, or I could meet people that would be important in my life. Who knows?! All I know is that I am super excited about moving to Dallas, and beginning my job at Starbucks until God leads me to another opportunity. :)
