  1. I'm a ONE year old graduate and my advise is..
    even if you have to wait a while to land your "dream" job or opportunity, have PATIENCE and BELIEVE that if God has that for you, it's for you.
    We like to set time limits on when things should happen, and give up if that time has expired in our books...but just remember God doesn't work on our time, it may be hard and discouraging but you have to keep PUSHING!

  2. Wow ladies, "CONGRATULATIONS" doesn't even do it justice. To the ladies I know personally and even those I don't, I am extremely proud to see this collection of images...it is such a beautiful thing. I wish you all the best and I hope your journey unfolds in a way even greater than you imagine.

    Going along with what Tracey said, my advice is to go in the direction that makes you happiest and continue to do one thing every day that takes you further in that direction. As long as you keep making steps, great things will unfold. And if you keep your heart open to all the possibilities, whether you know exactly what they are or not, they will come to you and blow your mind!
