I am beginning my second week of college and I must say that I thoroughly enjoy everything about it... except for not being able to see my old friends... but nevertheless, I have made many new friends and they are all wonderful! I couldn't have asked for a better roommate, we get along so well and she's a delight to be around. Classes are going great as well! None of them are too hard.... but Anatomy and Physiology is a constant reminder of how much work I didn't have to do in high school. lol I have to study every night in order to not get behind in my classes but I don't mind. My inner nerd comes out at night when I find myself enjoying my work... :)
This past weekend I went on a Christian Youth Retreat called Chrysalis (Chrysalis is the cocoon stage of metamorphosis). It was FULL of surprises... literally lol and it was kind of nice not being allowed to have phones or clocks which enabled us to be completely focused on the purpose of why we were there. It was absolutely amazing to see so many people who truly care about you and love you no matter what. When I saw how many people were praying for us young ladies to have a successful weekend, I was completely speechless. Over the weekend I truly strengthened my relationship with God, which I must admit was weakening with my busy schedule the first week of college. However, I've become completely motivated to get myself back into the swing of things with my nightly studies. My table, which we named the "Pearly Girls" was full of beautiful, inspiring young ladies. I was seated next to my best friend, Olivia, and I even made a friendship that I know will last forever :) It was an emotional and tiring weekend but completely inspiring and life changing! I wouldn't have changed anything at all! "BELIEVE WITHOUT FEAR!"
"But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."
Isaiah 40:31
FLY WITH CHRIST
