I'm starting fresh. No more thirteenosity. Seeing that I'm no longer 13...I thought it was only suitable to kill the name. Let me catch you up on..life. This summer is in a way similar to past summers in the sense that I am super busy, but very different in the sense that I get to go on different adventures. To start off, I get to serve at my church's vacation bible school in a few weeks. That following Sunday, I get to go to the most safe and amazing places I've ever attended and that is The Swamp. I have had the privilege of attending ever since I was 9 and I plan on keeping it that way and continue to build relationships and memories. Fast forward to the second to last week of July and I get to go on an amazing family vacation with my wonderful family. Literally 2 days after we get back, I get on a plane to go to...BARBADOS! I am so grateful that I am able to take a mission trip to Barbados with The Swamp and I ask for prayers since this is my first time out of the country...but also that I am able to impact some camper's life that week.
I know this summer will be filled with new opportunities and eye opening experiences that I can't wait to start, but 3 days after I get back from Barbados I walk through the doors of high school for the very first time. I've been asked if I'm nervous at all, and my response to everyone has been "80% excited, 20% nervous." I mean I think it would be unrealistic to say I wasn't a tad bit nervous for the new chapter these next 4 years bring.
So again, I want this blog to be my place where I can share my feelings on certain topics, share my travels and experiences I go through, and hopefully have some fun with fashion and diy stuff(: So in the name of High School Musical, "this is the start of something new."
