Anyways, I have finished my first semester at Geneva College. It has been a sweet semester and I couldn't have asked for a better start to this new chapter in life. I still look back at it and think that I shouldn't be where I am right now. Being at a different Christian College has been a breathe of fresh air. It has given me perspective in the things that I should look for when seeking my next job at a Christian institution. I definitely loved my time at Covenant, and don't have any regrets. I learned a lot about myself, and gained valuable experiences, but hindsight is 20/20.
I think what has made my transition so easy to Geneva has been the RD's. You guys are great and have made me feel welcome, loved and appreciated. I've told some of you this before but I think I lost confidence in myself socially when I was at Covenant. My life was my job, and I had no social life outside of it. I didn't have peers to confide in and I felt like I was a burden to my peers. I couldn't be myself....it was weird. It's been the total opposite at Geneva and the RD's are the main reason for this change.
Totally switching subjects now. I am at home in South Pas. I love home and I'm proud that I'm from LA. I love that movies are filmed in my town. I love that I get to watch the Lakers on TV. I love my house and my bed. I love being able to sleep in everyday when I'm here. I love my Mom's home cooking, and all the great food here. I could probably write a whole post on different places to eat in LA. I love that I get to come home to sunshine and warm weather no matter what month it is.
(Preface: I can't believe I'm saying this but it's really how I feel.)
It's always bitter sweet though because I don't have too many friends here anymore. I definitely regret not keeping up with High School friends, but that is another post. There is SO MUCH to do here but there is no one to do it with...wow that sounds really depressing. I guess what I'm trying to say is, that I can't wait for the day I can bring my wife( God willing) and show her around. I want to take her to Disneyland and take pictures with Mickey hats. I want to go to the "Price is Right" and try to win "A BRAND NEW CAR!!!" I want to drive her in my mom's convertible with the top down and ride up and down Pacific Coast Highway. I want to take her on top of Mulholland Drive at night and stare at the LA lights.
