One week. MVNU.

In one week i embark on a new adventure: College. Though i am quite excited and thrilled about this, i must admit that i am nervous as well and am feeling slightly uneasy about the situation. This is normal i'm sure. I'm excited about the spirituality of the campus i'll be going to. It's something i need. I knwo that it won't fix my struggles, but the atmosphere will be much healthier for me to cope with my problems. I'm excited about the academics. As odd and nerdy as it may sound, i can't wait to write a paper. Or read a chapter from a textbook. Or discuss biology and writing in my new classes. I can't wait to learn. I can't wait to be on a campus where i feel loved. I can't wait to be with friends who i already know, and those who i haven't properly met yet. I'm excited about the fellowship. However, with these excitements comes the doubts and nervousness about moving into an entirely new, and unfamiliar, place. I'm scared that i won't fit in. I'm scare that i'll lock myself in my room all day and hardly ever meet anyone. That would be very unfortunate. I'm scared that the guilt that i feel about leaving my mother will practically haunt me and will keep me from doing the things that i want to do. I'm afraid of failure. I'm afraid of loneliness. There are so many fears that i have as well as many excitements. I'm worried about college, but as i've said, i am very excited about moving in on campus and being a college student. I will be counting down the days (i have been for awhile). I suppose this blog is a way to confess my worries and excitement as well as a chance to say goodbye to my friends from high school. I will miss a lot of you. I love all of you and wish you the best. We WILL keep in touch. I WILL see you again. I promise. Good luck with college or whatever your plans may be. :) Hello MVNU class of 2013!!!!!!
