2 weeks notice

the countdown begins my friends...

one) im super excited for this new chapter in my life! i get to meet tons of new people and take classes that actually interest me. i'll be in a new town, so i'll have a lot of exploring to do...i think that God is definitely gonna use this transition to grow me, and while i am kinda nervous about that, i can't wait to see how he's gonna use me and grow me while im away at school...

but...

two) sometimes i feel as though im not ready to leave this place yet. here is where i know everything, every person, every street...im confortable. im not ready to leave my family and my friends yet...im gonna miss everyone so much...

and...

three) i know that here will not be forgotten :) ill be coming home a lot...i still have a family and a boyfriend and lots of friends here. and it's only 3hrs away...so that means that you should come and visit me too!
