Getting Started

Hey everyone I am new at this blog thing but I was inspired by Aimee and Casey to start one! I think it is a great way to keep in touch with people and let them know how your life is going. Well I am 21 and I am a student at Clark College. I will be graduating from there hopefully after this quarter and in August I will be starting at Washington State University Vancouver. I am excited to begin this new chapter in my life. I will be getting my bachelors degree in human development, and my masters degree in elementary education. After that I will be a teacher! I am also a huge believer in Jesus Christ and I do not know what I would do without Him in my life. Since joining Summit View Church in December, I have devoted myself completely to Him and plan to do so for the rest of my life. My family is also hugely important to me. I have the best mom anyone could ask for and a wonderful sister who I love to death! My grandparents have been a huge support to me as well, especially my grandpa after my dad passed away almost 15 years ago now. He has been the male role model in my life. He takes me to lunch and the movies, and, yes if you can believe it, taught me how to drive! (that was quite the adventure, just ask him). My dad's family lives in South Carolina and even though I do not see them very often I talk with them on the phone and they are also a huge support system for me.

I love to read my Bible and write in a prayer journal that I have. I can look back at the journal entries and go wow, I have changed so much in my relationship with Jesus! I went to church growing up but after my great-grandmother passed away my mom, sister and I stopped going to church. I rarely read the Bible and then last year Kris took me to a college group called The Way. Then he invited me to Summit View and I have been going ever since. I can't wait to see what God has planned for my future, but I know that if I follow His path, He will be with me and guide me always!

I would love comments and will be giving updates regularly!
