Back home at last. This last semester has been a really interesting one to say the least. I'm kinda getting used to college, and most people are surprised to here that. Their response is "what you don't like it!?" and all I can say to that is, well its getting a little better.
I guess I'm not like most kids in that I wasn't looking for a way to escape, get away, or find new things. I was just starting to get used to and really enjoying the things that were around me. I've never been a good adjuster, and it took me a while to get used to chinquapin. A lot longer than most people know/think. (About 2 years, around the end of my sophomore year). That's when I started getting comfortable, then realized it wasn't going to last much longer.
I guess my fear is that it will take me that long to get used to college, where you classmates and teachers change every semester. Where you meet as many as 50 new people in a week.
I've started to get used to is (mainly thanks to God, Michelle, Nicholis, Anne and Isis), but its still so far out of my comfort zone most the time. I know we aren't meant to live in a bubble. We are supposed to go outside our comfort zones, but I don't know where to go. I'm not sure why I am in college, the purpose behind it. I guess there are times in our lives where you aren't supposed to see anything but still trust anyways.
Well I guess that is just what I have to do.
so on that note:
"Lord, I love and trust you, and know that you have in mind what is best for me"
I need to continually pray and believe that.
But for now.
I am really glad to be home. See familiar faces, places, foods, etc.
I thank my family and friends (including my bestest friend) for the warm welcome back.
=)
