Life as I know it...
I don't know if I've ever been so thankful for a group of girls. I feel so comfortable with them, they're like family. I always thought I'd hate having an all girls dorm, but it might be the best thing ever. I love that even though we all believe pretty much the same thing, we're still so different. I love that even when it's hard or embarrassing or even if it hurts us to admit we can all just be open and honest with each other and not have to be afraid of being judged. I love that I can completely be myself and not have to hide one single part of who I am. I love the support that we all give each other and that we live to lift each other up. I love that we all have bedtime prayer together, and that's not even considered weird at all. I love that when I'm having a bad day I know I have twelve girls that will be there for me regardless of my struggle. I love our RAs and how brave and courageous they are and how they aren't afraid to share things with us. I was just so afraid that coming to a Christian school would be rough, that everyone would be all "holier than thou" and judgmental. But it's just the opposite and I'm so thankful for that. I feel so blessed to even know these girls.
Just an update because I haven't done the LJ thing in a while..
I'm no longer a music major and I'm really glad about it. I'm a Business Administration major now and it's pretty much awesome. The teachers are all incredible and yeah. I love it.
I think I'm going to be studying at Cambridge for a semester. It's ten weeks long. We get to do a week long individual study in Ireland and a two week individual study of Europe and backpack to wherever our hearts carry us. I don't know how I'm affording it, but I'm just going to trust that God will make a way. He's been pretty darn faithful up until now, so I don't know why this would be any different.
I'm also applying for a summer internship at Mission Lab in New Orleans for next summer. We have to apply now because so many people want the job. I really feel like I'm supposed to go there. I've never felt more strongly for anything before. New Orleans is just such a wonderful place and Mission Lab is just so amazing. I just hope I'm able to a part of such a ministry.
Voices is pretty much the hardest thing I've ever done. Traveling is fun and all, but the every weekend thing just stinks sometimes. I don't even know where we are half of the time. It's been hard not knowing when I'll get to go home or see Trae next. Luckily though we are getting four days over the Spring Break to go home. I'm going to be making the trek to Statesboro to check that place out. I'm really excited to meet Trae's friends and such.
I really love this place. I REALLY do. I feel like my life has really changed since I've been here. I think I'm finally growing into who I'm supposed to be. That's what college is for right?
Sorry for the length of this entry, if anyone has even read this far. I really hadn't intended upon writing this much.
