I have always dreamed of going to college in another state to experience a new place.. and well.. I leave in 2 days for Oregon!!!!
The weeks all seemed to go by incredibly slow, but the last few days are flying by so fast! Craziness. Reality hit me when I started packing up my room.
I have grown so much just this past year and I feel like this is the perfect time for me.
Exactly one year ago, I didnt know who I was. I had low self esteem, I was anorexic, but I thought in some way that I was happy. News flash to that girl: youre not happy. Then in October, I went to my best friends sweet 16 birthday, saw an old friend, and we started dating. Whether I knew it at the time or not, that was exactly the time that I began to grow; he brought me to church where I met the most incredible small group of junior girls that I have ever known. Now before this, I did not want to know God, I didnt want to have faith, and I never wanted to hear about it. But God used this guy to bring me to church where He would use these girls to bring me back to Him. And that He did. I believe that the purpose of my relationship with that old friend was to bring me back to God, and when I got to the point where all I wanted was to strive for Him, that would be the end of the relationship so that I could truely only want and be satisfied with God alone.
I have never in my life been happier than I am now with God.
It has gotten to the point where I dont even recognize that girl in the early months of 2009. My relationship with God only continues to grow and that is why I think this is a perfect time for me to start a life in Oregon.
I cant wait for college :D
Woooo!!! <3
