back to school

So today I came back to school...unfortunately. Don't get me wrong, I love getting to see my friends and being at my new "home", but I could go without sharing with a rude person. I don't think my college experience would be so horrible if my roommate wasn't so bad. I am not one that tries to trash talk people but this is one exception. It's hard to live with someone who hates you, but the feeling is pretty much mutual. 

Anyway, no use in spending my time talking about something that does not matter to me in this life. But I am so thankful for my friends. I am so glad to be back with my two best friends, Amy and JoBeth. They are my backbones and I do not have any idea how I would have ever gotten through my first year of college without them. God truly blessed me with such amazing girls, I really could not have asked for anyone better. 

Along with them, my friend Taylor transferred here this semester. I am super excited for her to be here and to get close. We didn't really start off on the right foot, but it's exciting to be able to start new. (: Having second chances make all the difference and everyone deserves at least one. She doesn't know very many people here, so I'm excited to be a big part of her experience here. She is an amazing girl and I know she will do great. She will befriend a lot of people being such a sweet girl, I am excited to see what God has in store for her this semester. 

God is my best friend. Although I pretty much turned my back on him the last four months, but things are changing now. I can't keep living the way I have and there is no way that I will let depression rule my life. I am worth more than I think I am. I am loved, cared for, and wanted here. I need to remind myself of these things constantly, daily. I cannot wait to see the person I am going to become. I am learning to love life and the people in it. 

It is hard to struggling in a brand new place, some people would think it would be easier to just start over. Starting over has nothing to do with moving to a new place, because your past follows you. You just can't allow your past to over your present and your future. You have control of how you want to live your life. Choose wisely. 

That's all I really have to say for tonight, until next time....
