Also, I found my roommate, people! This is something I am super excited about. I was going to have all random roommates, but another opportunity came my way. My new roommate and I found each other and I could not be more ecstatic about it! we have a lot in common and it seems like we will get along really well. I cannot wait to meet her in person. There is always a risk when having a random roommate, so knowing who mine will be for the five months I am in Florida is a huge relief. We are going to try for a 3 bedroom in Patterson.

My arrival date is inching up on me much faster than I expected. Part of me just wants to get there already and start making memories and the other part of me is not ready to leave my family or my home. Leaving the place I grew up in is something I knew was going to happen when accepting my offer for the Disney College Program. It is also the one thing I have been dreading. I love my family and my home, but I also know that this opportunity does not come along often and it will all be worth it! There is no reason any of us should live in fear. We should always be brave and trust that we can do all things through Him who gives us strength. So, I will cast all my anxiety and fears on the Lord, because he cares for me. We need to chase after our dreams, not hide from our fears. Am I right!?

Adventure is out there,

 

 

And this whole new adventure I will be embarking on still does not feel real. Eeeeee!
