Starting Again...Again

So, I'm back in Santa Barbara for my final semester at Westmont. It's hard to believe college is ending, and yet, at the same time, not. So much has happened. I have tried my best to take advantage of every opportunity. I know that looks different for everyone. My taking-advantage meant leaving as often as I could. In the past four years, I have moved nine times...and I'm not done yet. I have loved all the places I have lived for one reason or another. Some have definitely been more difficult than others, but each has left its mark on me--each has helped me grow in some way. After spending last summer living in Santa Barbara, finding places to love and aspects of the city to cherish, I am glad to be back. SB is a beautiful city to say the least.
Today was my first day of classes...eventful. Not the class part...my car broke down. Yeah, it could've been horrible, but--surprisingly--it wasn't. People were so helpful, friends, the AAA lady, the tow-truck man. I am trying desperately not to freak out. It's just difficult being stranded when I feel like I need to get so much done. At least I have groceries now. Anyway, I also got to see a lot of friends today I haven't seen in awhile. I had forgotten how many people I love. There will be a lot of coffee dates in the near future...yes!

More soon...
