Hello all!
Seeing that this is my first official blogger post, I find it very hard to know exactly how to begin this post. There are no monumental marks that have taken place recently, no out-of-body experiences, and no apparent reasons as to why I should necessarily begin a blog. The thought of opening an account and writing the recent happenings and thoughts of my daily life dawned on me this morning. So now I jump and plunge myself into the waters of bloggers unknown! Bear with me while I figure this thing out :)
This morning was the first day of classes. It is always an exciting time: the bustle of students walking in and out of various buildings, figuring out your new weekly schedule that will define your life for the next five months or so, and the high-set goals for yourself at the beginning of each semester. Since I have just changed my major (yes, ladies and gentlemen, for the fourth time now...) to Public Relations-Journalism, I have a new attitude towards my classes and professors. It is refreshing to finally be enthralled by school, once again.
With the beginning of a new year, there are always new goals to be set and new markers to be reached. Like many of you, I have set a few reachable goals for myself. I plan to have my daily quiet times and to keep digging myself deeper and deeper into the scriptures and grow in Him more and more with each morning. I plan on doing better in my classes and to put forth the efforts that I know I am very capable of. I plan to keep myself in great shape and to continue shedding those pounds. I plan to doing things this year that I will never be able to do five years from now, for example, move to New York City with my sister for this upcoming fall and spring. I plan to be a light for Christ in every situation and circumstance that the Lord throws me into....
This list could go on and on, but instead of boring you to tears, I feel the need to end my first blog on this note: Christ has immensely blessed me with an incredibly talented family, amazing friends, and a blessed church. What more could a young woman ask for? This year holds so many exciting new opportunities and I approach it with vigilance and tenacity and pray that the Lord continues to shine down his mercy and love on His daughter. Until next time...
In His name,
Emily
