Fresh Start

Well yesterday I officially moved into college..! Still doesn't seem real to me. It was a little stressful at first, especially realizing how small the rooms were (: But it got better as the day went on. The hardest part was obviously when my parents left..tears were shed for sure! Not having a roommate has also been very interesting. Enjoying the space while I have it though (: But not having someone here to hangout with for the first few days is hard. But last night I went to the movie on the quad with my suitemates and the girls across the hall, so that was fun. By the time we got back I was exhausted and went to bed.
This morning we all kind of woke up late because we were so tired from yesterday so we just skipped breakfast and had a later lunch. After lunch we went to the fest thing happening in the quad, I went with the same girls as last night. We had a lot of fun even though it was quite warm.
 I came back to my room to cool off and read the Jesus Calling devotion for today. It was so fitting for today. Here are a few lines from it that really stood out to me and were comforting: "I am all around you, hovering over you even as you seek My Face." "If My children could only recognize My Presence, they would never feel lonely again." Meeting new people is not the easiest thing for me so starting out at a completely new place and knowing almost no one is really hard. Hearing this words was perfect at this time. I know God has great plans for me here at Ferris and I know he's going to help me through everything.
In a little while we're going to Cookies @ Clark so hopefully we will meet some new people. Then later tonight it's Meijer Madness so that should be fun. In the morning I'm also going to church with Kalon so I'm excited for that.
