She believed she could so she did. I remember writing that on a piece of paper in the exam room when I was sitting for my Chief Mates license. (you can read the whole exam saga here if you need a refresher)

I decided that now that I'm officially taking the plunge I needed to channel some of that same energy so I painted it this weekend.

Do you remember when I passed my Chief Mates exam? It was exactly one year ago. June 16, 2011. Do you think it's amazing that I took my first job on June 15, 2012?

I believe I can and hopefully soon I'll tell you what it's like to say I did!
