My biggest fear is failing

Ok, so I know it's been months since I've last updated. Plenty has been going on since then. As of right now I'm just playing around with my laptop and preparing for college. I leave Thursday and I'm heading off to Longwood University. I have never before felt such a weird mix of emotions. I'm definately growing as a person but also growing away from friends as well. I think that's just something natural. It's not like I'm not used to saying good-bye. God knows I've moved around enough for that! The thing is that my family has always been right next to me throughout it all. I know it sounds super cheesy but I just feel like so many people have come through my life and left but my parents have always been there to pick up the pieces. I don't think I give them enough credit.

This past weekend has been amazing, without a doubt! Our church got a new Youth Director and we all went on a retreat to the Outer Banks. We stayed in a small beach house but it helped us all grow more in our faith. I love having my church family and I don't know what I'd do without them. Faith is so important in my life. That's not to say that I'm a crazy Jesus Feak or anything like that. It's just that through my life experiences faith has gotten me through my hard times.

This summer has been the best one ever! I have been lucky to go on a Cruise to the Carribean, attend WorkCamp in Pettersburg, help out with Vacation Bible School, and just be with my friends. I wouldn't change a moment.
