It’s been nearly two months since I last posted, which has frustrated me tremendously. I switched majors because writing was supposed to consume me. I was expecting to have a lot of time on my hands to just sit on my laptop and write. School has been a little rocky. I am taking 18 units, […]

Commencement.
I started my second year of college today. Today was the start of a new major. Today I saw the people I will be working with for the next 16 weeks. I began a new season in my life. I was honestly quite scared all last night and this morning. On my way to school, […]
The One He Loves.
I think it started Tuesday.. I’m not too sure. All I’m sure of is that I’ve been feeling spiritually dry. It’s not like I lost desire to seek Him. It’s just that my flesh was resisting receiving from Him. There was a laziness that came about me as well that aggravated me. Thank God I […]

It was literally a retreat from everything: the busy city life, cell phone reception (including WiFi), friends, and my parents. In the last four days, God moved and spoke way beyond anything I could have […]
The Perfect Path.
All grades have been submitted and I was able to see what I grade I received in each of my classed. The result was saddening for my Biology. I was hoping to barely make it through. I was hoping I got just enough points to get me to a C+. Instead, I ended the semester […]
Sophomore Status.
I did it! I officially completed my first year of college and what a year it has been. A little over a year ago, I was on the edge about going to college right away. I had the desire to take a semester off and travel or volunteer at an orphanage in Mexico or help […]
April Showers.
I am left in awe of how much pruning and growing I allowed myself to go through this month. It definitely was not easy. There were days where I really gave into temptations, to mean and dirty thoughts, to insecurities. I doubted myself so much. I doubted whether I was good enough for others, whether […]

The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward. Steve Maraboli (via feellng)
