The first big change started on August 1st. I moved in to my very first apartment. What?? How am I getting so old? I packed up my things from my parents house and moved into an apartment just 20 minutes away from home. You would think it wouldn't make you that homesick still being so close, but it's still pretty odd! You have all of this freedom and you don't quite know what you're gonna do with it. However, I am starting to feel like an adult. I mean come on I got excited about buying dish towels and glassware.

Another big change in my life was one of my best friends leaving for basic training. Only a couple of days after I moved in and trying to get settled I had to say bye to her for 7 months. That is just insane to me! A lot happens in 7 months and I wasn't ready for her to leave. So for now it's written letters to her. Still waiting to hear from her!
That's me on the far right and she's right next to me. Miss her already!
The next big change happens this week on the 22nd. My best friend since about the age of 2 will be moving an hour and a half away. This will be the longest we have ever been apart. I'm hoping to attend her college next year! In 2013 it was a rough year and I made a lot of bad decisions. Unfortunately, I have to pay the price this year by going to a different college than my best friend. But, everything happens for a reason and I'm ready for whatever God has planned for my life :)
Last step, college here I come! I can't wait to start this chapter of my life! woohoooo :)
XOXO,
Shayyy :)
