Just Keeps Getting Better!

Hi Everyone!!

I just finished my 2nd week of college! Big things happened!!

BSU finally kicked off Monday, and there was a great group that showed up! I love gathering with a room full of people ready and willing to worship and talk about God. Truly amazing!! Tuesday, The guys and girls split up at 7 those nights and we have a bible study. My first bible study with an amazing group of girls was amazing! It's great to have a devotion with them and talk to each other about everything. Wednesday, for about 5 minutes at 11:30 every week, we meet in the chapel to do a little devotion and pray. Thursdays, we go to nursing homes and sing to the elderly. I have to work during that time so I can't go with them, which makes me extremely sad... :(

But I am ready to be involved in BSU and see what all God has in store for me while I'm there! 

^me and Grace at our first BSU!

Thursday, I had an interview to try out for Trailblazers at my school. (Trailblazers is sort of an organization at the school that retreat the school and go to high school recruiting kids and telling them why they should go to Colin! And they have to be willing to speak in front of people and be enthusiastic about the school!) well I was extremely nervous because they were only excepting 11-14 students out of 54 trying out!! But I made it!!! Me and 23 other students made it! I was so excited and was praying that of God would allow me to, that I would make it. I'm so excited!

^i made it!!

As an RA in my dorm, we finally received our permanent schedule for the rest of the year. My advisor asked if anything was wrong with it, and there was only one thing wrong. I had to work on Wednesdays from 5-7, and I told her how I was heavily involved with church and I was one of the leaders for the youth group. A girl said she would trade with me for Thursdays at 7-9. So I was all excited to trade, then I realized that I will be missing football games. I was sad, but I knew church was more important and God is my first priority, so I traded. My human nature wanted to go to football games instead of church, but I knew what God wanted me to do. So everything worked out. I get to go to church, and I get to see the ending to football games! 

^me and Grace at our first Wolfpack game! Colin won 29-20! I got to see part of 3rd quarter and all of 4th!

College life is amazing so far, I hope and pray it stays that way! 

Show Love, Be Love.
