The first entry!

I am so excited to have finally gotten one of these things! It's such a good way to express my thoughts and hopefully find some like-minded people out there.

School has started back now... it is so hard sometimes to be back around all these people. I find myself feeling so left out when it comes to the college life. All anyone around me seems to care about is smoking and drinking. I have gotten to the point where even the smell of cigarettes or beer makes me sick. It is just so wasteful, so dumb. I just wish that more of the people around me would realize how much fun one can have without substances involved. Baking cookies is yummy and fun, but my housemates never want to do it... I try to be openminded when it comes to them but sometimes it is just impossible. How can one compromise your own beliefs just in the interest of fitting in?

It's the same with boys. It is so hard to find a kind, good Christian boy in the party environment. I keep referring to one of my favorite verses: Instead it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. --1 Peter 3:4--

I just love that verse, it warms my heart whenever I feel discouraged.

Anyway, enough of my ranting! It does feel so good to get that kind of stuff out in the open though. Whoever is reading this, I hope you have a wonderful and blessed night!!!
