(I'm sitting in one of those windows)
YAY :) i finally started a blog. I've always wanted to do this, but never really got around to it. I love journaling and yeah I do it from time to time, but online blogging seems so much easier. I dont even know how this works... I don't know if people actually read these? Well if you are reading this, I hope I at least know you because that could be really creepy if you dont...haha. But then again, if you do know me, might be kinda weird too...oh well :) Either way I think this is really cool...and because I love procrastinating on homework and stuff, so this is awesome haha.
I'm sitting in the library of my beautiful school right now. My view from where I'm sitting? The center of campus which is filled with students laying on the lawn or sitting by the fountain. Students seem so happy here, as if california sun just makes them so happy and gives them enthusiasm for life. The fountain is by far my favorite spot on campus. At night it has multi-colored lights and students think its funny to run around in it or hop from rock to rock. And on the weekends, people REALLY think its funny to run around in it at late hours...haha I'm sure you can guess why. I really can't believe how pretty this place is. I feel like I'm on a TV show. (and no not on the OC haha) But I walk around campus and I absolutely love looking around at everything. The structures are brand new, the sculptures around campus are pretty entertaining to look at, the students are smiley and happy, the grass is perfectly green, the various fountains are beautiful, and the football field is shiny and new, and just screams out school spirit. I just feel so blessed when I walk around here. I'm finally getting to the point where I can walk around campus and wave to several people I know as I walk by, something in high school that I would constantly be able to do. I felt weird coming into college not being able to walk around know at least 10 people on my way to class. The saying, "small fish in a big pond" came to mind. I'm used to feeling like a big fish in a big pond, something I'm currently striving for. Is it weird that I feel like I have to be as involved as possible wherever I go? I don't feel satisfied until I really feel like I make an impact somewhere. I just can't sit back and watch other students lead things and make a change on campus when I'm not doing the same thing. Sure, I'm part of a sorority now and very involved with that and am a member of the tennis team. But somethings missing...and I'm hoping this "something" turns into an opportunity sometime soon. But then again, I have to chase down an opportunity, I can't just sit back and wait for it to come to me. But I know God has some sort of greater plan for me, something waiting to happen...
Alright well I better get back to studying, this whole blogging thing is awesome because I can totally procrastinate :) haha not a good thing, but something I love doing so its all good. Back to reality in the life of a college freshman.

Hi Amy, Miss blogger :) I absolutely love that you started a blog, I love to read your writings, and see things through your eyes. Maybe you'll even put up some of your past fantastic writings?
ReplyDeleteReading this entry was so enjoyable, but also made me miss you a ton. It reminds me of all the aspects of you that I treasure so much. This most certainly inspires me to always strive for that "something." I am very jealous of your fabulous school, I hope one day I will speak this highly of my school. Your writing is so great, and I love the little hints of humor within.
You have taught me so much in life, and I am very excited to learn more through your writings here, and get to hear fun little things about your days!
Love you Always Amy K. :)
