As I sat here thinking about how my life will change again in the next month and a half I was reminded of Blake Shelton's song God Gave Me You. Which led me to the letter of the day, F for Friends.
When I was leaving at the end of the summer for college I really wasn't ready because I was having to say goodbye to my family and new friends that I had grown so close to like Ernest. I wasn't ready to leave the city I had known for the past 18 years of my life but I knew that it was just the next step in my life.
When I first came to Baylor I was so excited because I already knew three friends there: Mary, Audrey and Margie. These girls have been with me through everything that's been going on this year as I've transitioned to college life and words can't express how much I miss Mary and how much I will miss Audrey and Margie when I leave for Trinity.
Then I met Miss Vanessa. Words again can't explain how much I love this girl. We gripe and complain about things together and go to happy hour at sonic together and I wouldn't trade her friendship for the world.
And last but not least there is my gorgeous roommate Ashley! We joke with each other and like all the same TV shows. It's great! Even though we get on each other's nerves sometimes we always love hanging out and joking around together.
All of these friends were placed in my life for the ups and downs and I know no matter what they will always be there for me. So never take your friends or family fore-granted. And as always, Act Justly, Love Mercy and Walk Humbly.
Love,
Alicia
