| As I am entering my final semester of college I feel a little discouraged. Life has not followed the path I had planned it would take. My biggest struggle (that I feel will always haunt me) is the fact that I am single. I planned on being married or engaged before leaving CBC. Unfortunately God has different plans than we do. This is more than likely a good thing. If life were predicable, if God did everything on my terms I would never learn to trust Him at a deeper level. If I enter graduate school single, I will have to trust Him. Trust Him that He will be my provider and protector. Although my heart desires a mate and a companion, I need to trust in and rely on God more than any other human being. Perhaps God is maturing this in me before he entrusts me with something as precious as a relationship. As I continue to wait, I know it will be hard and I know it will be lonely. However, I also know it will be worth it. When the time is right for me to enter that stage of my life, I will hopefully be a stronger, more mature woman of God. I will not enter a relationship for any selfish reasons (to feel loved, to not be lonely, etc…). Rather, I will enter a relationship in order to glorify my heavenly Father. To the single women at CBC- be encouraged. Don’t doubt yourself- your beauty or your worth. Instead, realize that God is doing something bigger and greater in your life than you could ever imagine. |

| What can I say. I LOVE CBC. Not only do I get state of the art cement flooring in my dorm, they provide free pets! My favorites? Large water bugs and mice. Here is our newest addition. Herb the Mouse...

| I went to McAlisters today and got some food to go. The girl who handed my my food was, according to my approximation, in her early twenties. When she handed me my food.... she called me "babe." I'm not sure how to handle that.... |
