And Summer Comes to an End


Well, tonight is officially my last night of summer! I spent the morning worshiping my King, the afternoon catching up on some TV, and this evening getting everything ready for tomorrow. As I reflect back on my summer it has been an adventure!

·      In May:
o   My best friend Sarah headed to China for around 8 weeks!
o   The fuel pump on my car went out leaving me stranded in the middle of Shackelford. Now that was SCARY!!!!
·      In June:
o   I had a nice day trip to Six Flags with Sam, Angie, the Jessica’s, and Alaina.
o   I went to camp as a counselor, which was SUPER FUN!!!!!
·      In July:
o   Sarah came home from China and Sam left for China, almost all in the same week.
o   My friends and I also had this awesome “Glow Party” which consisted of putting a bunch of glow sticks into a pool!
o   And then Sarah and her family came to visit! That made me really happy because I really missed her while she was in China.
o   In the midst of all of this, I studied for my Insurance Test.
·      In August:
o   Pastor Nathan challenged all of the Youth to carry our Bible everywhere we went, and of course as a sponsor I couldn’t let them have all the fun, lol!
o   Our Youth went to Louisville, Kentucky for National Fine Arts and I was privileged to teach Wednesday night youth for those who weren’t in Fine Arts. Now that was a hoot! (See previous post)
o   I attended a two-day class for my Insurance Test.
o   I took my insurance test and passed on the first try! Who would have thought I would be 19 and have my insurance license… Not this chick!
o   Then my car didn’t pass inspection, even after fixing all of the safety stuff. The fix? Just drive it… Finally it passed and its all good now ;)

See what I mean?  An adventure! Now it’s time to head back to college, and you know what, I am actually excited! Looking back at what I was feeling back when I started last year, so much has changed! That first semester was HORRIBLE!!!! I was just miserable. But, God brought me through it; He has brought me further than I ever thought possible, and He is still doing great things in my life. I know God is going to do great things this school year, I can feel it, and I can’t wait to see what it is! I am also excited to get in on taking my Bible to school! Since I have missed out on a good two or so weeks of taking my Bible to school, I think I’ll continue on through September!

 It's going to be a great year, and nothing is going to change that!!!!!!!!
