Ok, so I'm currently supposed to be packing for camp tomorrow but I'm blogging instead. I still can't believe that this will be my final Meltdown trip as a student. Around 6 trips of beach, drama, and a lot of Jesus. It's surreal.
It's been a year of lasts for me and this upcoming year will be another year of lasts. But I do have a round of firsts too: my first College Sunday School class was today, my first car is currently sitting in the driveway, my fist College event was a few weeks ago, and soon I will be attending my first College tour and many, many more firsts.
I do have mixed feelings about everything. I've enjoyed High School and all of its ups and downs. Sure, it hasn't been the typical High School experience. I never dated in High School and never got my first kiss. I wasn't in any sports and I'm nothing special smarts-wise. But I have met some of the most amazing people and done some awesome stuff. I've also learned some valuable lessons about life and grown further away and then so much closer to God than I could have ever imagined. I've made some big mistakes but I've also made some of the best decisions in the last few years.
So, as I face this last year in High School, I hope I'll be able to learn more. I hope that I'll be able to easily experience these lasts and firsts. And I hope that God's direction for my life would be clear.
Ok, I really need to pack so I can get to bed at a reasonable hour tonight!
Much love,
Andrea
