A New Quarter Has Arrived

Coming back to school after a month long break was probably the hardest thing I've had to do in a while. Not only did I have to leave my family, friends, and the familiar aura of my hometown, but I had to come back to top bunks, stinky public bathrooms, and emptiness. Sure I've made a couple of really good friends last quarter, of which I am so grateful and blessed to have, but we have different schedules, and, to be honest, I didn't want to seem like a clingy leech of a person. Thankfully and, at the same time, not so thankfully, I have a busy schedule of classes this quarter, including 7 am -__-, to keep my mind off of the loneliness I started to feel during the beginning weeks of school. Thank goodness for my wonderful Bible study leader, Olivia, who was able to reassure me and give me the confidence I needed to tackle upcoming quarter. Not only did Olivia give me confidence, but we had an EPIC event this past weekend called Women's Time, where we shared our testimonies and ate yummalicious food. I found that the other girls were experiencing similar, if not completely the same, feelings and trials as I am going through in my life right now. Listening to each other's stories made us grow closer to each other as sisters in Christ, and I am so thankful to God that He has placed each and every girl in my life. Things are finally looking up this quarter, and I hope it stays that way.
