Woke up too early
It's going to be a cold, rainy day in Grove City. So sad. I guess this weather is evidence of the fact that fall is on its way, and to me that is a bummer.
Right now I'm sitting here, listening to Butterfly Kisses on my headphones. It's kind of a depressing song. I need to stop giving myself 50 minutes to get ready, because I obviously don't need all that time. There seems to be a recent theme in my blogging... It only happens at the strangest hours of the day. :)
Oooo... New song! Nicole C. Mullen's "When I Call on Jesus." Well, I'm gonna pack up my stuff for class. I hope y'all have an amazing day!

Diet Coke with Lime is simply amazing when it's so cold that the top turns slushy. But seriously, who would be stupid enough to drink caffeinated pop at 2:00 in the morning? Well my friends, not all of us are that logical. I guess there's just a lot to think about these days, and what better time to do that than the middle of the night? :)
I guess it's been a while since I last posted. I've been back here at Grove City College for the past week: acquiring a quality education in a thoroughly Christian environment at an affordable cost. I have noticed a change in the social dynamics since coming to GCC for the first time. Freshmen year, the work was so overwhelming and I spent too much time on it. And ever since, the focus has shifted from academics to friendships. The academics are part of being here, but friendships are the what keep me coming back.
It's so nice to return to a place that is familiar and comfortable, a place where you can just pick up where you left off. GCC has become a sort of second home, which is strange to say since in previous years I have struggled so much with homesickness. But I guess that it's different this year... Part of it is probably just getting older and more confident. Part of it is knowing so many people here. Part of it is being loved by friends, and loving them back like they're my own sisters. Part of it is the excitement of a new year and memories to be made.
I love the fact that wherever I go, God is with me. He is so good, and I will never grasp the extent to which that is true. Yet He still hears my little prayers, and He answers them! He rules over all the nations, but He knows how many hairs are on my head. It's like the Nichole Nordeman song, "Oh Great God, be small enough to hear me now" (I think that it's called "Small Enough"). I won't get going on my Nichole schpeal... I'll just say that she is amazing and everyone should listen to her music for the lyrics.
So now that you've had a taste of my disoriented, late-night thinking, it's time for bed. I don't think that the caffeine in my system is gonna be a problem... I'm wiped out. So anywho, this is going to be a very interesting semester. I can't wait to see what God's going to do!!
You Grovers (I hate that term), keep the studying in perspective. I'm sure that I'll be seeing "y'all" around. And the rest of you peeps, come visit me! :)
