Well, today marks the end of my freshman year of highschool. We had exams today, and we were to leave school for the summer at 12:15 p.m. While I sat in my business tech class playing an intense game of Cubefield, I was itching to walk out of those doors and say "I am no longer at the bottom of the todem pole!!" And I did just that. I didn't scream it out, of course. I probably should have though.. just for the fun of it. Although my freshman year was not totally glamorous, It was one I will definitely always remember. God has shown me this year what I am called to do, and who I am called to be. I could not be happier with the way that things have turned out! My Dad has always said, "When God closes one door, he always opens another!" I have always had faith in that saying, but I have never truly applied it to my life before now. So many new doors have opened for me and I am honestly at a bittersweet turning point in my life. I cannot wait for the things that God has planned for me, and I will embrace all the trials that I have to face with a happy outlook and a Christ-like attitude. I had an amazing start to my summer today that included a pool, a golfcart, a trampoline, and some wonderful friends! I know that it will be an amazing summer, and I plan to savor every single minute of it with the people that I love. (I also must add that I am terribly excited to make lemonade and sit by the pool!)Today I left my freshman year behind and ventured into summer in a small town. Join me?
