It's been awhile since I've written a regular post. Nowadays they're mostly about music, but that's not a terrible thing I guess. Another semester is right around the corner. I'm looking forward to class, yes, but I'm also actually terrified. The first day especially freaks me out. It involves leaving my comfort zone, and meeting a whole roomful of new people. Who do you even sit by on the first day? One would think that being in my senior year of college, I would have grown accustomed to this dizzying obstacle. Sadly, that is not the case. In my mind I'm already prepping myself, telling myself not to worry, and that it'll be fine. I'm also praying that the Lord would give me strength, and that I would be able to be a witness this semester also.
It's easy for me to get caught up in worrying about myself, and what other people think of me. Lately I've actually been so self-conscious that I avoid certain people. (Any by certain I mean attractive, because why would an attractive person want to talk to me?) But putting that aside, I know that those thoughts are selfish and self-absorbed. Instead I want to be quick to consider how others might be feeling, what they might be worrying about, and try to put myself in their shoes. We all have a story to tell.
Those are just a few pre-semester jitters. I'm sure they'll be over soon, and I'm sure there will be all kinds of crazy things that go on as well. I wish you all the best!
