i have been consumed by all things college. hence, the lack of posts. and i am kicking myself for not being able to write anything because i have so much homework. but, today, i have managed to finish all that is due tomorrow by 3pm. so, here is an update on life.

i'm going to texas with some of my best friends next weekend. words cannot describe how much i am looking forward to going. just a weekend away to do nothing but have fun. no worries, no nothing. just some much needed bonding time!

i'm really enjoying school, even though all my profs decided they hate me and piled on homework in EVERY class at the same time. it's great. i had kids this weekend asking me why i liked it, why i didn't go to MNU because it's so close to home! why travel five hours to come to SNU? my answer was simply this: the community. the family. the sense of belonging you get the first time you set foot on campus. the amount of caring and effort people put into knowing you, helping you and making sure you succeed. it outweighs anything i could have had at MNU. not to mention, as much as it saddens my parents, i am moving on to being on my own. if i was at MNU, that wouldn't have happened. i would go home far too frequently. being on my own is nice. learning to say no, to prioritize. it's a process, but it's a process i'm super happy to be a part of.
