School, school, school!!

Guess what!?!

I am going to The University of Southern Indiana beginning in just a few weeks to embark on my journey towards a BA in Journalism!!! I am soo stoked!!

Now those of you who don't know me well, this may not seem like a big accomplishment or big deal; but let me tell you...this is epic!!! After High School, I went to an internship, then pretty much got straight into ministry and have been in that for about 4 years now! I just assumed I would never go to college, and there was never a strong desire in my heart to go regardless, so I was fine with that! However through my pilgrimage over the last couple of months; really looking inward [and upward!] seeking out the things God has put in my heart to do in this life...I've come to many different roads I could have taken. Tried walking down a few, got re-routed a few times too, and now, to finally be at this crossroads, I am thrilled!

I'm thrilled for a few reasons;

a. because it is something I really do have a deep interest in, and know it will open up doors to other passions in my heart!

b. because I feel a deep level of peace and knowing that God is so good, and he's such a good leader and will guide to me exactly where I should be in any given season in life.

and, finally...

c. I am very happy to be staying near my family. I love them so much; and they have become the biggest support system in my life, along with some close friends God has blessed me with since I've lived in Henderson, and I am so happy to remain with them a while longer.

I'm just happy, and very excited!! I feel like a little kid getting ready for the first day of school, like; yay!! New pens, notebooks and a backpack!! [Haha, I know, I am a nerd!] And on top of all that,  I just found out I need glasses, which will add to causing me to feel more studious!! ;)

Soo...let the studying begin!!
