It's almost here...

...I am now only 4 days away from my first day of school as a senior, which I am still having a hard time believing. The past 2 weeks have been great, I moved into my house with my wonderful roommates, had a week of training for CAB, and then spent this past week hanging out with the new freshman. It has been an extremely bust 2 weeks but sooo much fun! I am really excited about this upcoming year and what it will bring. I want God to challenge me and to use me, I want to apply to grad school, to plan some awesome events for school, to be intentional about my friendships with people, I want to build an awesome community with my roommates that is centered around Christ, I want to explore new parts of Riverside that I have never seen, I want to soak up every moment I can during my last year of college but most of all I want to do all this for the glory of God!!!

Tradition...

When we (Monica, Me, Courtney, Vicky, and Liz) graduated from high school we started a tradition where right before we left for school we would all get dressed up and go out to dinner. A couple years later what started out as dresses and going to the Cheesecake Factory is now jeans, sweatpants, and a t-shirt and getting takeout. Although the woardrobe and dinner location has changed the time we spend together is still awesome no matter where we go or what we wear. I love these girls so much and am so thankful for the roles they have played in my life and I feel blessed to be a part of theirs. We all considered it a miracle that we were able to carry on our tradition this year as we are all a lot busier than we have been, but I hope we will carry on the tradition for years to come!
