All summer I've had 2 responses to the questions I get from family and friends about college
1. “I am so beyond excited and ready!”
2. “I am a little nervous, but I'm ready.”
So basically excited and anxious, no in-between seriously none.
So the big question is, have I been preparing myself???? I want to say yes but I feel like I haven't done a vey good job at it. Lets see what have I done to
prepare myself… nothing. Ready to face the reality of life? No. Am I Ready to introduce yourself all over again to new friends? No…not really.
But wait why am I saying no…?
Why do I already sound defeated but yet I haven't even made it to school yet??
This is where things take a turn.
I have so much anxiety for the future and for no reason at all; for things I have yet to even experience. I am through having anxiety about every little thing. I know I am prepared. I know I can make new friends. I know I can thrive. How do I know this? Because I trust the Lord and the plans he has. Plus whens a better time then now, I mean seriously. I am beyond grateful that I have the opportunity to go to college. Trusting the Lord is what has gotten me where I am today. Its as simple as that, trust. (Proverbs 16:3 has been my life verse lately) The college world is real and raw, enough said. I would not be headed for Oklahoma if it wasn't in God’s will.
SO here we are full circle exactly 2 weeks before I move in… SUREAL.
“Are you ready for college?
I love your post Sister!!! I know you are beyond ready! Proverbs 3:5 Love you greatly!!
