Just Me.

Last weekend, I moved off campus to my Aunt and Uncle's in Churchville.  I was so excited. 

My boyfriend came up and helped me move, and while it was extremely stressful, I was still super excited to be living off-campus and to be able to afford college. 

I had my last week of work and learning to commute...and that leads to today. You see, most of my friends moved onto campus today, and the rest are coming tomorrow. And it wasn't until they all started moving in that I realized I wouldn't be able to walk across campus or next door to see them. 

This is an extremely hard realization for me. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE living in Churchville with my family, but I also had to leave the first place that I felt at home in 20 years. I can honestly say that I think I understand why people don't like moving. And I now understand why my mood was so bad while moving. Because every other time I've moved, I was stressed but was okay. Not this time.  

So today, I had a rough day. No lessons, no convictions. Just a girl who misses being able to walk to the room next door to see her best friend. And I know with time it will get easier, but at the moment I have to learn to be okay with just being okay. 

"But You, O Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head high" -Ps 3:3
