Today was my Last First Day!
Let the countdown begin!
Depending on how you count, you can get different results. I tried multiple ways of counting and decided to start this as Day -250.
I still remember when I came to college! There was the time that I cried sitting in my truck at James and Cecilia's house because I didn't want to leave. Then there was the time that all my stuff got rained on as I was moving into the dorm. Oh, and remember that time the tree fell on my truck?! That is something I will never forget! Some things were fun and exciting, like intramurals! Other memories weren't so fun, like getting bruises from intramurals... But all of the experiences I have had have really shaped me into the person I am today!
Looking back on the last three years, I have always been surrounded by friends and family who have helped me through life. Whether it was Anna calming me down when the tree limb came crashing down, Elise encouraging me to walk closer with God, James convincing me to stay in school, Zach sitting quietly with me when I got a letter saying no one wanted to hire me, or all the coffee dates and miles I've walked around the loop with friends, God has blessed me with many wonderful connections.
Some of you reading this may have known me for a long time, but some of you only met me in college; some of you may have simply stumbled upon my blog. No matter, I can assure you, whether or not you know it, I am a very different person than I was 3 years ago, and I'm a very different person than I will be a year from now!
I want to resume my blog because I don't want to forget anything about this year! So many things are different. I live off campus now with 5 awesome girls that I'm looking forward to getting to know better. I'm taking 18 hours of courses, including FCAS (Foundational Concepts of Aviation Studies). Not to mention working 27.5 hours on campus at the Library and Facilities Services! Somehow I will have to squeeze in sleep, homework, and cooking/cleaning for myself, but I know I can do it because I'm not a freshman, I know what is required, and no matter what, life goes on! Bring it on Senior Year!!!!
Join me in this journey to the end of the tunnel! I can't see the light, but I trust that it is there and I will keep moving forward. I don't know what my future holds, but God will reveal it to me in his time!
