Dirty Laundry

Well at this very moment i am doing laundry in the blazer hall laundry mat and i was just sittin here thinking about today and this past weekend and all that's been goin on in my life when i realized that this whole past week i didn't do anything for the kingdom. Over half of my time was spent worrying about a boy who doesn't even want to date me, and the other half was worryin about my classes and all that goes along with that. If I keep goin on with my life the way i am i am never goin to grow in my spiritual life. The big red flag to this break through occurred when i went to church this morning with my brother. It was the first time since i had been back to b'ham that i had actually taken the time to even try to evaluate my spiritual life. My life needs to be centered about God and then the rest will fall into place...and i have got to learn to be content with that whole heartedly

College vs Home

Okay so the past week i have experienced tons of new things and these things have got me thinkin about life here and life at home. I love college. The classes are gonna be tough but i am really excited bcause i am going to be challenged with hard tasks in order to reach my goal of becoming a nurse. Then I think about home and i know things won't be the same when I go bakc, but there are certain people who are moving on without me that really in my heart i don't want to move on. I guess I had high hopes that they would wait for me, but who was I kidding. These people don't want to wait on me, but I don't want to move on without them. I want to focus on school, but when certain people leave little hints that they are moving on without me it hurts. Now, I'm really bad at over-reacting so that may all that these feelings are, and I really hope that's all it is!! I pray that this is just me over reacting!!

School


Well i leave for the great city of Birmingham in two days and i am super super super excited!!I feel like i have grown more in the last five days than i have all summer...it's been amazing. I think now that i am at the end of this journey in fort payne i have started to remember little things i have learned and experienced here.

I look back and I first think about all of my crazy middle school moments and I don't ever ever ever want to go back...I was a super brat and I was really annoying...Then i remember how i transitioned from middle school to high school and i am so thankful for my church family and my immedeate family for their support. Finally i think about high school and all of the amazing times i had and there are too many to count!! I loved every part of football season and the pep rallies and the basketball games and all of the crazy times in between!! I loved every minute of it.

I've met so many amazing people in just the last five years that i wouldn't take back those years for anything!! I loved getting to meet some of my closer friends who are older but who support me and let me be myself!! And i am super excited about the people i meet at college and all the fun i am going to have there!! I can't wait!! Pray for me!!
I hope that i will always be a "first-rate version of myself"
