I'm Baaaaaaccckkkk

Hey Blogger! Long time no see. Well I'm back and we will see how long this lasts. This is a very exciting time in my life so why not blog about it? Even if no one else reads my blogs, I will appreciate these a few years down the road. Reading about my apprehension for college, having a roommate, and living away from home should be fun. Eeeek...

I write this posts from a stool in my kitchen. Scary enough, ONE WEEK from today I will not be living at home any longer. In fact, I will be living in a residence hall at the University of Iowa. For the first time in my life I will be out in the world on my own. I have my concerns, but it's time to put on my big girl panties and get ready for all that the world has to throw at me. I will stand with my catcher's mitt ready to grasp the challenges and ready to grow from the new experiences.

I've often found myself wondering if going out of state for college was a good decision. After all, I love the great state of Michigan so why was I so anxious to leave? I guess my point still stands that if I don't leave now, I never will. That doesn't mean I will never return to Michigan. In fact, I have full intentions of moving back to Michigan after school, but college is the time to live with no restrictions, to explore, and to be free so I am going to take full advantage of it. The great state of Iowa has no idea who is coming for it. Look out Iowa City... You have met your match!


Well those are all of my late-night thoughts for now. You can count on the next few posts being related to college as well! Bear with me, this is a lot of change for me. Until then, go Hawks!
