My week of difficult tests and comprehensive exams is almost over! I have one test at 3:30 today and I will have nothing to worry about for the next month! Well, except planning the wedding. But I don't really call that a complaint. I cannot wait to get started on that right away! Well guys, today is also my 21st birthday. I was up late last night studying when I drifted off for a little bit (okay like 2 hours). In those 2 hours, I got to thinking about all of the amazing people the Lord has blessed me with in my life. Not only do I have an amazing family, but I have a future new family that I will be adopting as my own in the coming months. I could not ask for better in-laws. Also, I have two unbelievable counsels/friends. They are my pastor in Tuscaloosa and my RUF campus minister. These two people have helped me theologically and also in life. They have answered some of my most deepest theological questions and have helped me through hard times that are just a part of a Christian's life.
I have also been blessed with my wonderful sorority sisters. To have 250 other girls stand behind you and be excited for you on your birthday, engagement, or just getting a good test grade makes a girl feel on top of the world. I will never forget the friendships I have formed through Alpha Chi Omega and those relationships will remain strong forever. It is always amazing to me how so many girls, from different backgrounds, upbringings, beliefs, and personalities can mesh to form one awesome sorority. My sorority has impacted the University of Alabama in so many positive ways. We really are powerful women that can achieve anything. I will never forget the excitement of my sorority sisters when I had my candlelight, revealing to them that I was engaged! Everyone was so genuinely excited. I felt truly honored and blessed to have them be apart of this momentous occasion in my life.
Well, tonight is going to be full of fun birthday festivities and a little partying. Then tomorrow Thomas and I are going to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra and going to Muscle Shoals to visit his familiy. Can't wait!
