I had so much fun planning how I was going to decorate my room. Since the walls are white I wanted to go with a very simple but pretty look. I loved how it turned out and my new space feels like home.

College Dorm Tour!!!
So I have been moved out of the house and living here in my new apartment for 11 days now. Move in day was a lot better than I expected! I went pretty smoothly all day even though I was so nervous the day before and on my way there! I felt like I was going to be sick! But once I met my roommates I was relieved! It was a very calm day and it actually felt special!

So Where Am I Going To College?!
With my high school graduation right around the corner, 2 weeks to be exact , my next new chapter in life of course is COLLEGE. For the past 3.5 years I thought I knew where I was going and what I was going to do. I knew God was calling me to serve him through ministry. I thought he was guiding me to this amazing Lutheran university and to be a Director of Christian Education. My heart and soul was set on pursuing this and going to that certain school. The thing is God has different plans for my life and for most of them I don't even know about yet.
For the 2014 - 2015 school year I will be attending Jefferson College in Hillsboro, Missouri. In Missouri high school students who meet grade and attendance requirements and do 50 hours of tutoring get 2 years of community college for free. This is a great deal and for some kids this is the only chance they get for a college education. This honestly in the end was one of my only options. I have parents who do not support the whole "church thing" and refused to let me get loans.
When I finally realized that Jefferson College was where I was going to go, I had to ask myself how I was going to react. Was I going to cry and be miserable or realize that this is all in God's plan and be excited about it? I chose to have perspective and know that a lot of good can come out of this and I still have a bright future in front of me! After praying about it a lot and God giving me that perspective, I felt at peace about the whole situation.
So I am pleased to announce for the 2014 - 2015 school year I will be attending Jefferson College. I am having a blast planning on how I am decorating my room since I have my own bedroom! I have been knee deep in crafting so I have cute things to put in my room. That will be another blog post! I know with going this direction education wise, I have a bit more freedom when it comes to what I want to pursue for my career. I plan to hopefully transfer to Missouri Baptist University and do something along the lines of Christian Ministry and Communications.
My goal is to also become a professional photographer and really take off with that. I hope to also go somewhere with this "blogging thing" and music. I want to be able to do what I love and am passionate about while still being able to support myself financially. My main thing is to always do and go where God is leading me. Doing that I know everything will be just fine :)
