One semester down....!!!!

AMEN!!! HALLELUJAH!

it still shocks me that i am even here, in Florida, in college. i cant even fully comprehend that i have just completed my first semester of COLLEGE!!!! i really never thought i had a chance with college or even imagined i could ever go to school. But the cool thing is that God knew i could, and His plans are perfect and He provides for all needs, that is one thing i have learned this semester.
here are a few other random things that i have learned or that sum up my semester.
1. God knows everything.
2. the christian bubble, its hard to come out of when not prepared.
3. Friends are a great thing to have.
4. being away from home for long periods of time is very humbling.
5. no matter how much you have enjoyed a semester, it is still good at times to see it come to an end.
6. starting out strong isnt as important as finishing strong.
7. life back home, it goes on with out you.
8. balance in life, its something that is slightly difficult to accomplish
9. communication is extremely key in having a roommate
10. its a blessing to have a job.
11. Raman noodles....cant stand them
12. late night talks with friends are so awesome (i think there is a certain hour of the night where your guard just goes completly down and you are just you...makes for great conversation)
13. waffle house and sonics is an important part of BCF life
14. hair dyeing, thats how we roll in NAPE-TOWN (thats what we call our dorm, its really Napier)
15. Preview Day is the bomb, best chapel music, best food(gotta put ur best foot forward...!), classes are 95% going to be canceled or extremely shortened.
16. Leah, Ashton, Elizabeth, April = good times!!
17. relationships here move like 10x faster then anywhere else. i think this could be good, and bad...(they dont call us Bridal College of Florida for no reason...!!!)
18. bike rides into town, pretty much amazing, allthough, my chain is acting funny...i should get that fixed before i fall in a ditch
19. IT GETS COLD IN FLORIDA!?!???????? When did this happen!!???!! yeah, DEFINITELY found that out!!!
20. i figured out that when i am bored or super annoyed i clean, which i guess can be beneficial...

i have truly enjoyed this semester. and have no doubt that this is where im supposed to be. but i am so more then excited to return to Stafford. even if only for a short time. I think i am prepared for all the changes that have happened in the last 8 months. its going to be different...very different. cant wait to see yall!

Oh, memories!!

I remember when you first came to BCF! Only the Lord knew what was ahead!

I enjoyed reading this post, because I was taken back to that semester. Somehow, I managed to let it slip by me and I feel as though I didn't really connect with the girls in the dorm like I had originally intended to. Anyway, may the Lord be praised for his faithfulness and loving kindness.
