So this past Friday I headed home for Labor Day weekend to spend some much needed time with family and friends. I had some company for half the drive since I drove my friend Liz to Modesto. We had some good talks and we laughed a lot which made the drive go by really fast. Once I got to Clovis, it really felt like I had never left, but at the same time it was weird being home. I was happy to see my family and my pets too! That night I hung out with some friends, and I'm not going to lie, I kind of felt out of the loop on everything that was going on... I was lost in all the conversations and inside jokes, but I just kind of accepted that we're going to grow and change over time and that our different experiences may put distance between us, but it's the past memories that will always keep us connected. Saturday night I went to the Fresno State football game which was really fun! I got to see a lot of people at the game, and it was nice because SSU doesn't have a football team. Sunday was probably my favorite day though! My friend Andrew came over and we made waffles and fried rice (it sounds like a weird mix, but the 2 dishes weren't exactly meant to go together). Then in the afternoon I met up with Victoria for coffee and some time to catch up on everything; there is one friend that no matter how much time we spend apart, we can always get together and manage to stay close. After that I went to The Well and it was just simply amazing. The worship was great and the message was exactly what I needed to hear! After church I went to Winco with my mom to buy stuff for my dorm, then I said goodbye to my friends. This morning I woke up early, packed up, and headed back to my "other home". Right when I walked in the door I was attacked by Chloe and Kaitlin... I was SO happy to see them! We talked for hours about our weekends and how we felt so lonely without eachother haha. I'm so blessed to have people like them in my life! Now I am off to study for my psych quiz and hopefully squeeze in some reading!
"For this is what I'm glad to do; it's time to live a life of love that pleases You... And I will give my all to You, surrender everything I have and follow You...I'll follow You"
I cannot wait to see the amazing things God has planned for my life... Praying that He consumes my whole heart! (:
