time flies

I used to think graduation would never come but that was 3 months ago, which that in of it self is hard to grasp. I miss school but at the same time I don't. But while I act lazy I actually love going out and doing things when I get to see people I love. I miss highschool I think for the reason that every tuesday morning I would hang out/make copies/and eat breakfast with my best friend. I miss that I really do. When I decided not to go straight to college and instead go on an adventure I never thought I would actually get to do it. But you know what? In 9 days I am getting on a plane and flying to Africa. In 9 days I am leaving my house, my friends, and my baby brother. The longest time I have been away from home is 2 weeks 2 thats it. I will be gone for 3 whole months 3. While I am excited I am scared too. I never thought I would get to travel the world but here I am getting on a plane all by my self and flying about as far as one 18 year old can fly away form her home in Georgia.  While I am so excited and can not wait at the same time I want to stay. I know God holds me in his hands but I am only human I am still freaking out a little but I just keep reminding myself of one thing that the bible assures me God is there.

Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”
