College

Well, wow. We haven't posted in awhile. It's very hard, sending emails all the time, recounting events to different people, it's hard to update and stay in the loop. So here's a brief recount of my college experience so far. First week. Awesome. I really liked it. So much. It was exciting and different and I liked that. I was getting along great with my roomies and making friends. Next Couple of Weeks: I thought I was on top of the world. And once I figured that out I started to go downhill. It's like Satan wanted me to fall. So I did. And now it's the first semester is already half over. I've made new friends, experienced God in a whole new way, and refocused my life on Him. Some Highlights: - Bowling in the middle of the hall with shampoo bottles - People's expressions when I tell them I'm from Alaska - Meeting fun, new people. - Doing laundry with coins - Trying to unlock my mail box...and failing miserably. 8 times. - Meeting boys and counting myself as thier friend - Getting trapped in the bus doors (yes, this did happen) - Playing invisible volleyball - Watching 25 episodes of Once Upon a Time with my friend Rachel over a period of three days. - Going to see Raiders of the Lost Ark (with above aforementioned boys) and getting back 5 minutes before curfew. - Seeing my first Praying Mantis - Seeing my first dead snake - Dancing in the (warm) rain - going to my first apple orchard - getting hugs from my DN (dorm neighbor) She gives the best hugs - Seeing and listening to Frank Peretti in Convo - Helping CFAWers find their dorms (College for a weekend students)and directing them where places were - Tie dying shirts and breakdancing in the field - Growing up So yeah. That's my first-half of a semester in a nutshell. College is a weird place, but it's also an adventure. I'm glad I came here and I hope I can spend the next 4 years here. BUT I MISS MASK. The summers are going to be so precious. I can't wait. :) ONly 9 more weeks!!! -A
