Hi again! Yeah, it's a second post for today, amazing, eh? But hey, consider yourselves twice blessed. *winks*
I was reading a few bloggers and they gave me ideas to chew on. One of those ideas has to deal with friends. I just realized how blessed I am to have such good friends. Even though circumstances change and communication can be iffy, I have friends that have stayed true. I want to thank you for that. You (speaking to all my friends) have helped me tremendously. I've gone through moves, emotional disturbances, and college life, and you've been there for me. I've ranted and raved - you listened. I messed up - you forgave. I gave advice - you took it (with a grain of salt of course). To you, my friends, I owe a lot and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope in the months and years to come that I can be a friend just like you.
Lord, I pray that You will touch my friends and hold them in Your palm. Just pull them into Your arms and provide for all of their needs. Bring them closer to You. Thank You for these people and that You've brought them into my life. Thank You for the influence that they've had on me. Just bless them and keep them. Amen.
The second topic is that I really miss college. Yes, I've been living on campus, but there are few people around. I miss the hustle and bustle of 90 students living together and studying together. I miss the deadlines and the assignments. I like breaks, but this summer is carrying on way too long! Bring on the fall!
My brother leaves on Monday (the 21st) to drive down to AZ. I wish I was going with him - to see the dorms and the college. Unfortunately circumstances wouldn't allow me to. It's certainly a weird feeling to know that the experiences I had two years ago are going to be replayed (in a different setting, yes, but the feelings are going to be the same). It's weird to think that my little brother is 19 and a freshman in college. It amazes me.
It also amazes me that I'm 21 and a Junior in college. How in the world did that happen? Seems just like yesterday I was in Wilbur and graduating... *sigh* Time goes by way too fast. In less than two years I'll graduate from EBC and be out in the "real" world. Kind of daunting, actually.
Well, I have things to do tomorrow and then I'll be heading to Everett on Wednesday! Yay!
