It's been many months since I last even looked at my blog and since it's a new year I thought I would get back to blogging. There's no better time like the present, right? I am in the midst of my Christmas break and still have a week of relaxing before my final semester of undergrad begins, but I've been thinking about how crazy my life is going to get during 2015 and I simply wanted to reflect before I got too ahead of myself.
I've had quite an interesting and unique college experience--one that many college students don't get to experience. I am a division 1 athlete, something that many students don't get the opportunity to call themselves. I have grown since my freshman year in many ways; I have become a tougher person, and I have learned a lot about myself. It's quite amazing to me to think back to what kind of a person I was my freshman year and the person I am today. I've grown a lot in my faith over the years and have really just started to dive deeper and figure out what exactly my faith is and so far its been an exciting journey. I've broken out of my shell quite a bit as well over the years. I'm still quite shy and fairly quiet and I often keep to myself, but I more openly ask questions and talk more to people that normally I would not have. I have also learned how to deal with and learn from the mistakes I make. I made a couple mistakes that sometimes I wish I could go back and change and they weigh quite heavily on my shoulders from time to time, but I'm slowly learning to let go of those mistakes and learn from them.
For right now though, I'm reflecting on the past and looking forward to the future, but ultimately I'm living in the present moment. I'm loving life right now and loving the people that I am surrounded by so I'm going to enjoy my life one day at a time and whatever comes I will let it come.
