It takes years to get those friendships that you know will last forever.
At least that is what I thought.
So I'm sitting here, in my dorm room at 11:44 pm, writing my first blog ever, and I cannot stop thinking about the amazing things God is doing.
I have a best friend in Mexico doing missions for an awesome cause. Who gives me strength and teaching just through a blog
I have a ton of friends in college doing what they love and having a great time.
I have all of those other friends, still stuck in high school, but having a good time I think.
And I have those new friends, keeping me uplifted from day to day in this new life I've started a little over a week ago.
I friggen love this place. I love everything about it. I love how everyone says hi to you on the way to class, I love how I can be open about my love for God, and realize that everyone here is here for that same reason, I love how I can become the person I want to be because no one knows what I was. I can start fresh, and most of all, I love the relationships gained through just a short week at this amazing school.
I love how I can walk out in the hall, and see people with a smile on their face. Even in the morning. I love how I can walk into anyones room and just talk or be crazy with them. I love the innocence and the love for God that dwells around this place, and I love how God moves people here, whether it be from chapel or from something else that I would totally not expect it to come from.
I seriously have met some of the most amazing people I could ever meet here. They are my rock at this school, and I can't imagine a day here without them.
In just a short week here, I've seen a change in my additude. I've happy all the time. I'm not the go-to guy anymore (at least not yet), but I'm just like everyone else. No drama (yet). I'm happy in the mornings, i'm happy in the afternoon, and i'm really happy in the evenings. Even when i'm exhausted. Sad is not a part of my mood anymore, and its awesome.
Yeah, sure, I miss all of those amazing human beings that have gone separate ways. I miss them more than ever, but I know they're being taken care of, and if not I hope they know they can call me anytime.
So, this is my first blog. I think this is the start of something amazing.
Praise God.
