Oh no, I had a thought and a feeling

Well, I've almost been at school for 4 weeks..... things have been crazy!  I won't write about all my woes and troubles, but I will say that I am back at school WITHOUT chickenpox, with a new allergy, and returning ear problems.   But I'm still walking, talking, and breathing, so all is good. :)

Ah. Covenant..... I love it so.  It's starting to feel like home.  The weather is getting cooler and the nights are getting longer, fall is almost here. (yippy! hehe)

I'll try to post pictures soon..... I'm not sure when though.



For now I'll leave you with this:
I would love to live in a REAL tree house!!!!  I hope there's a creek somewhere close to this one…. it'd be a shame if there weren't.

chickenpox?

Well, school has started and I love it!  I'm still looking for the niche on campus that I really fit into and for the group of friends I will hangout with a lot.  I have met some super people there so far and I honestly LOVE it.  Covenant is DEFINITELY where I'm supposed to be.
Sunday I had been there for a week and two days and things were going great!---- until I started to get itchy.  That afternoon I broke out into a mild case of the chickenpox from the vaccine I received two days before moving off to college.  Weird, huh?  How often do you hear of people catching the chickenpox at 18 years old and during their second week of college?  Needless to say I've been pretty irritable all week.  I feel like I'm missing out on everything that's happening on campus and there's NOTHING I can do about it because I've been sorta banned from school.  But, then I read Psalm 51 the other night and I felt a whole lot better.  Although I don't know why God had me come home and miss out on a lot of stuff at college, but I know it was for a reason.... I'm just trying to trust him.  I know skipping school seems pretty microscopic to you all, but to me it's huge.
Today I'm heading back to school and hopefully I'll get to stay longer than 9 days this time. I'm ready to be back (even though I have a TON of homework to catch up on...).
Adios for now!  Hopefully I'll get better about blogging once I settle into more of a routine.
