Changes

I am generally a fan of change, and this year is FULL of them. I start at Trinity on Wednesday and I have to learn to adapt to a completely new atmosphere. People say I'm a friendly and adaptive person, but I'm nervous about the whole transition.

John leaves for college on the 23rd. That's probably the biggest change. I've been so spoiled by getting to see him every day at school and then about once a week during the summer, and now I have to get used to him living four hours away instead of thirty minutes. It's going to be hard not having him here to talk to every minute. We'll both be on completely different schedules, which won't make it any easier to find time to talk. He's great about encouraging me about everything, but it's still rough. There have been a few nights spent crying, worrying, etc. But we've tried to center our relationship more around faith than it had been, so I think that will help. Major change there, though, no matter how I look at it.

One GOOD change... I'm finally redoing my bedroom. I've had the same tiny furniture since I was a about 5. The only that was an ok size was my bed. Suffice it to say, it was a room for a little kid, not an almost-16-year-old. Haha. I have a new desk, dresser, bookshelf, bedding set, night stand. I have a color picked out for my walls, too. It's gonna be nice to have big enough furniture and non-pastel colors on the walls.

So yeah. Mini life update, there. Hope all is well with everyone. God bless!
