Today is Friday. This is my last Friday in the USA for almost a full year what the what y’all….
Listen to how good the Lord is:
I went to UTK and UTC this past weekend to say my final goodbyes to my friends because I head to New Orleans tomorrow to say goodbye to my dad and my friends couldn’t make the trip home in the middle of the week. So, I spent the weekend in the life of a college student. It was awesome and I can’t wait to go to college (except for the homework- haha).
But.. not gonna lie, the goodbye was hard. Having spent all day with them, when it came to saying goodbye it was so difficult to just drive away but I knew I had to… I couldn’t drag it out longer. I was crying fat tears as I watched my friends grow smaller in my rear view mirror. I quickly jumped out and ran back to give Al one last hug. Then I was off. I cried the whole way back thinking how could this of been my last time seeing my peeps.
This past week I kept thinking to myself that I would just love to see them one. more. time. THEN I was face timing Margo and we figured out that everyone is coming home from college Friday night and I was leaving Saturday morning. WE HAD ONE MORE NIGHT TOGETHER!!! Excitement grew as I reached out to everyone explaining that we needed to hangout one last time.
So, tonight was Friday night and everyone just left and I am so thankful the Lord gave me one last night with my best friends. We spent it by going to our favorite restaurant and ordering the best dessert and ending it by talking on the floor in my bedroom till midnight.
The only bad part was having to say goodbye again. Dang, was that not fun, even for the second time.
Even though the goodbye was hard I’m beaming with joy from being able to be with them again.
Y’all I could not be more thankful that I was able to see them again. I needed them to help me get through my last Friday. If you guys are reading- I love y’all.
That being said…
I HAVE ONE WEEK LEFT TILL I LAUNCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dang how time has flown. How crazy!
I am so so so excited but so equally terrified. But lets get this thing going!! I’m ready to do the WORLD RACE!
I’m so close to leaving but also SO close to being fully fundraised.
I never would have thought I could raise 14,951 dollars all by myself… and I still think that because I would have not been able to do it without each and everyone of you. Thank you to who has prayed for me or donated. It means more than I can describe.
I currently have $13,028 fundraised right this second. THAT MEANS I only have $1,923 left!!! If you feel like helping me with that final bump across the finish line please donate to me and help me go follow the Lord across three continents!
Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU!
Can’t wait to share my journey with y’all.. IN ONE WEEK!
God is good.
