Waiting to begin my adventure


I officially have 28 days before move in day. I'm excited, nervous, scared, eager, etc. I still have so much to do...its not even funny. I still don't know where I'm living or with whom. I haven't bought most of the "essential dorm room needs". I need to buy a new laptop. I need to get my shots (I have an appointment on June 30th..should be fun) in order to be allowed on campus.

I don't know whether or not I feel ready. It doesn't even feel like I graduated high school yet...which of course I did June 5th. I don't feel like an adult even though I'm 18...maybe getting my drivers' license will help with that one. I don't know...it's just all weird to me.

I guess the perfect way to describe how I feel about this college adventure is to say I'm FINE...Freaked out, Insecure, Neurotic, Emotional (thank you Italian Job). All I can say is thank GOD I'm not going at this alone.

And thank GOD that HE passed on to Paul this bit of knowledge:

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. "
Philippians 4:6,7

This bit will help me survive college...I have no doubt about it
