Anticipating The Mainland Return

It is quite interesting to see how much "away from home" starts feeling more and more like home. Freshman year was filled with excitement, distractions, and lots of men (Smith Hall), but I had a much stronger need to go home. With Sophomore year came closer friends, new relationships, and an awakened love for the adventure of being on your own --I am still far from fully independent, but something about living with your best friends and learning about things you find fascinating, fulfills you in a different way... a way that home cannot. Home is a warm, oversized mug of hot chocholate cradled in your palms. College is a thrift store mug full of coffee accompanied by a small home full of friends and conversation. I absolutely love them both.

I will fully enjoy and appreciate my time here looking forward to adventures to be had this coming year.

God is good.
