I'm going to miss being a freshman

I’m going to miss being the center of attention, and I’m going to miss being invited to everything. It’s almost like an obligation for upperclassmen to treat us to things. I’m going to miss being treated like a youngin’, like I don’t know anything. But I guess it would be nice to finally treat new freshmen that way. I’m kind of excited actually.

My last day of classes was today, and honestly, so much has happened my freshman year, I can’t even keep track. I found the best group of friends I could ever ask for. I learned so much more about myself. I finally healed from past scars and got over a stupid boy. I found a church. I figured out what I want to do with my life. And all in all, I got closer to God in so many different ways.

Leaving home was the best thing that I could ever ask from myself. I had grown too comfortable in NYC and Boston just gave so much thrill and spiritual growth. I was thrown into situations that I could only depend on God for, which I am so glad about, and I had the best mentors that I could ever ask for to help guide me to where I am today. My first year has come and gone and I could not have asked for it to be any better. The people that I have developed relationships with and chose to surround myself with were purposely put in my life for a reason and I am so thankful. I’m excited for next year to come and I hope to give each and every freshman I know the same experience; hopefully even leading them to Christ. I guess that will be a goal that I would want to accomplish by the end of the Spring 2012, but of course, all in God’s time.
