Back at MC

Depressing. Its actually kind of funny. For four years of my life, I was the rebellious kid that always counted down my days until I moved out and was on my own. Well, now that's not exactly the case. I enjoy coming home, it happens to be a lot different now. It is so nice just to go home and relax and hang out with my family and friends. This week was not long enough. I am so ready to be back at home. Finals are not looking too great. I am just ready to get them over with and start new next semester. Only two and a half more weeks.

Holidays!

I am so ready for this semester to come to an end!!!! It is just becoming old and annoying. I am really excited about my new classes next semester. They seem a lot more interesting (except algebra). But moving on, my favorite time of the year is approaching. I never can decide which i like better, Thanksgiving or Christmas? Thanksgiving is always a plus, because well there is jut better food, and its my birthday! But Christmas is always good, because i see family that i never get a chance to see but at that time. I have no idea how to tie what i just said into Mississippi college, except for the fact im ready to leave and get a break! Well with all that said, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Letting go.

Ever since I have been at college, I have been dealing with the issue of letting things go. Whether it has been relationships, grudges, or my past in general. It has taken a while, but I'm finally realizing what is best for my life. Today at church the speaker said something that really just touched my heart. It was something that I needed to hear, to reassure that I am making the right decisions by letting things go. It was "life is the sum total of the choices we make." We can choose waking with Jesus or walking with the world. For a while I had been choosing walking with the world, because it was just so much easier to do. I thought of every way possible to deal with my problems instead of going to God. Last night I hit rock bottom in a relationship, which has only happen to me once before, and that very moment all I thought was God. Before all I though was things of the world. I know its time to let go of the old, and start with the new. I believe being at MC and being at the new church I am at, has really helped me grow and be able to let go. I've always known that God would be there to catch me when I fall, but now I not only know... I can feel it.

Also moving on to a brighter subject.. I am so ready for next semester! I am really excited about some of my new classes! This past week I decided I was going to double major in French and Psychology. I am not sure what I will do with my french, but I'm hoping that God will be able to use me and french. I just can't want to see all the adventures and ups and downs my life will take!

Undecided

So second essay is finished for English... and we are about to start on the third. I am one of those people who likes to be given instructions and guide lines such as topics. I do not really like just writing about anything. Sometimes I honestly have nothing to say. I went back and looked at the blogs that I have written and none of them seem like a good essay.
My experience at MC has truely been amazing so far. It started off slow but I am beginning to enjoy it more and more. I know I have changed since I've been here. I am still the same Emily, just improved. I've grown up a lot. Whether it be college in general, or MC, something has had a major impact on my life.
I am just really excited to see what the next few years have to offer me. I have an idea that it will only keep getting better. I'll find my groups, find my friends, and find my place.
