And so it begins...

Well, in 5 days, but still. Summer is ending and school is next week...greeaaattt.

Recap

I have the best friends in the world. And I got to hang out with them all summer.

For starters, New York was amazing.

I got to go with my best friend for the 4th of july, see my dad, and hang out in the city for 5 days? SO FUN!

I started working at Nike again. Finally have some type of idea what I want to do after I graduate? Ha it will probably change in 2 months.

- Go to grad school at ucf for sports business management

- Graduate from it :)

- Move to Portland & work for Nike Corporate

- And somewhere in between there God is gonna change all those plans around, ha why do we even make schedules when He likes to spice everything up for us

A few things I have learned since last summer, is definitely God brings the people in your life to you, when He needs them to find you. His plan for your life is far greater than you could have ever imagined, beyond your wildest dreams, for better or for worse.

And when we finally reach the end of ourselves, the very second everything seems incomprehensible and nothing makes sense, He is still there.

LOVE EXISTS. It is real, it is tangible, and it is everywhere.

"Love the Lord your God, and love one another. Love one another as he loves. Love with strength and purpose and passion and no matter what comes against you. Don't weaken. Stand against the darkness, and love. That's the way back into Eden. That's the way back to life." - Redeeming Love
