Goodbye!

So this is my last required blog post, and I know I said that I like blogging, but considering how busy I am right now this will probably be the last time you here from me.

Here is the thought that keeps cycling through my mind: I cannot believe how fast this semester has gone by.

I was looking forward to being done with school for a while, but I didn't see how close the end really was. This semester has been crazy hard, but I am going to miss it. Well I don’t know if “miss it” is the best way to describe my feelings... I think it is better to say that I am grateful for this semester because it has taught me a lot about myself. I learned what I wanted to do in school and I try to set plans for the future. I made the huge decision to go on a mission, and I cannot wait to serve the Lord (I submit my papers at the beginning of May!). This semester I have been blessed to have amazing individuals come into my life that have taught me so much, and I have also learned from relationships that I have lost. I know that things happen for a reason and that people come into our lives with a purpose.

I don’t know everything, not even close, but I know that I am stronger because of this year and what I have learned. I know that God has a purpose for me and I cannot wait to serve Him, not only on my mission, but throughout my life!
