Hold Up! Wait a Minute!

I just got through spending the marvelous month of January in what I have now realized is my favorite place in the world- Oregon. So why am I in the San Fran airport and preparing to board a plane that will take me aaall the way back to the Midwest? Talk about 1 step forward 2 steps back. What was I thinking!? Well it's a weird one for sure. I have to endure all over again the long semester-trek through the desert, without the vital things I need to survive: mountains, valleys, the ocean, pine trees, orchards, and friendly Pacific Northwestern natives. All. Over. Again.
So mundane. So irritating. Such a waste of time.

Wow. The above comes across as quite pessimistic, does it not? How about a chance to rewrite the awful first impression I had of Greenville College. A new shot at conquering difficult classes (calc, chem, & bio to name the lethal trio). An opportunity to engage the faces I walk past every day, yet take no notice of. PEOPLE. (They're what make the world go round).

So may this infernal nightmare turn into something incredibly blessed and so fruitful that I can't comprehend it.

Help me Jesus!
