The Sunday Post

Hi friends,

One of my favorite blogs, Hello-October, makes a post each sunday that she calls the Sunday post. It has always been one of my favorite reads and I always look forward to getting to read it Sunday morning. So I thought I might try it out on here with my blog.

The past two weeks have been crazy to say the least. I think I have experienced every emotion possible since I arrived here in Lubbock. Today marks exactly two weeks since I said good bye to my parents and started living on my own for the first time. 

In these two weeks I have been tested physically and mentally multiple times. I have started college volleyball workouts that have pushed me more than I have ever been physically pushed, but in only two weeks I have already seen such amazing improvement which has been an extremely rewarding feeling. However, I do not think I will ever get used to waking up at 5 a.m. but maybe with time it will get easier. I also have had to navigate my way around a large campus and try not to have a panic attack every time I have 10 minutes to be somewhere and have no idea where I currently am let alone where I am supposed to be going. I have had break downs of missing home, my dogs, my friends, and my family. But it has also been fun getting to meet so many new people and learn so much about myself even in the short time I have been here.

My first week was very hard for me. I am not a very outgoing person until I get to know people so making friends can be very difficult for me. However, I have met so many kind and wonderful people here and they have made it a lot easier for me to not be as closed off. 

I know that this journey will have plenty of ups and downs but I am so excited to see where it takes me!

Until Next Time,

Morgan
