Yet what is on my mind NOW. At this moment its reflection, reflecting on everything that has happened this semester. The good, the bad, the wonderful, and the ugly. I think back to my first week and move in day. I remember my parents leaving at that awful meeting. My first RA meeting as I sat curled in a little ball just wanting to go home. I stayed and thank the Lord I did.
If you sat me down 14 short weeks ago and told me that college was like this, I would laugh. It is so much better, so much stranger, a little more painful, but oh so rewarding. If you told me I would join the equestrian team I would've laughed, that to me was just a far-off dream of a child. Yet there is where I found my big and one of my best friends.
I think if someone told me my fate of rush I wouldn't have bothered doing it. I sit here now with an AOII hat on feeling proud to be chosen to be with a group of amazing girls. I would've missed out on so much, like staying up till midnight with my big watching the Polar Express, laughing the whole time, and trying to bounce whip cream off our hands and catching it in our mouths. I wouldn't have gotten into Step Sing and the dance break, which I still can hardly believe.
If I hadn't come to Samford I wouldn't have felt turmoil with people and struggled with certain things. But if I hadn't come to Samford wouldn't have learned to trust fully in the Lord and his plan. I wouldn't have gotten into the habit of reading my Bible each and every day and praying whenever stress came my way. If I hadn't come to Samford my life wouldn't be amazing.
Most of that may not make much sense but hey my mind is kinda weird!
