| i was told that it's time to write a serious entry. so here it is:
i guess it's the time of year where i write a sentimental entry reflecting on my life the past year. this is strange because it's really only half way through the calendar, but the end of the school year. can you believe that i'm going to be a senior? it's pretty crazy to think that only a little while ago, i was new to binghamton and was so ready to leave after a year. needless to say, i didn't leave after a year and i stayed. do i regret it? no. am i glad i stayed? i guess so. i think the past year and a half have been a big test for me. how do i deal with obstacles? how do i get over disappointments? i've learned a lot of things. i've learned how to accept and appreciate where i am in life, whether i like it or not. it's not for me to decide. it really is up to God and what He wants for me. obedience is a lot harder than it seems, especially when it comes to difficult issues. issues like my future and my relationships. it's hard to see the bigger picture when so much of the world today is focused on the "now." but i guess i know that no matter how much i want to change about the things that seem to be going wrong, if it's meant to be, then it's meant to be. in the wise words of my 8th grade french teacher, "just accept it and enjoy it." although it's a simple phrase, it has a powerful meaning. i have more than i could ever need and really have nothing to complain about. i have a loving family that takes care of me and will always be there for me. i have loving friends who are loyal and trustworthy that always know how to make me smile. and most importantly, i have God who provides all things and will never leave me. what more can i ask for?
