hello, Tennessee. are you ready for me?

well, its been a while. and its been a whirlwind of a journey so far! i have just moved to the fabulous town of murfreesboro, TN last wk actually. its 30 minutes south of Nashville and about 12 hours away from my home sweet home. i started classes this week at MTSU and all my classes have at least 150 ppl in them, so everything is a big change! i like it though.

today was the first real sunny day, since I got here its been either cloudy or straight up rain. i’m glad its sunny again..but I gotta admit i’m proud of myself and thank my God, because I usually let the weather effect my mood and it would have been REALLY easy to get a lot more depressed because i’m away from home and everything familiar AND it was raining outside. since moving I have actually checked out a church here, and of course..their college ministry had about 200 college aged kids. ahh..murfreesboro is a small big town.

i live by myself and have already scared myself thinking someone was walking through my door or sitting on my couch (the way my blanket was on it looked like a leg..it was pretty interesting after i got over my heart racing 900 beats per minute). it’s funny, I told myself I would never live by myself because I would freak myself out too much..and look at me now

i miss Texas of course, and my family, my friends, knowing where i was going, a few stores and close by amenities, Tony..but this is where God has me for now and how amazing is He that He has kept me calm and happy and let me know that He is always there. to God be ALL the Glory.

 

so with that..check back next time (hopefully i’ll be writing about an exciting new job!)
