To My Best Friends in College across State Lines,

From Mississippi to Malibu... separated for the very first time.

To My Best Friends in College across State Lines,
Bailie White

First of all, I miss you all a LOT!! I can’t wait for Thanksgiving when we will all be together again. It will be a reunion for the ages. This is the longest some of us have gone without seeing each other in our whole entire lives. Y’all are all on my mind and in my prayers often.

I pray that y’all are staying faithful to the Lord and remembering to keep Him first. I pray that you have awesome friends—friends that are holding you accountable but most importantly encouraging and lifting you up all the time. I pray that when you’re stressed or worried about a super big test that you are leaning on Him and pushing through the pain; just like we did in high school—and we made it.

When I first got onto campus at FHU, it was really different because every time I have come and stayed for a week, we have all been together, usually just down the hall from each other. But this time was different because I had new neighbors and new people with whom to do silly things all throughout the night.

FHU is everything I imagined it would be. EVERYTHING. I love it so so much. I pray that whether you are in California or Oxford or Fulton that you are loving every minute of your college experience, too. I can’t wait to catch up with all of you and hear about your adventures, crazy professors, and all of your new friends.

FaceTime soon? okay cool. Miss y’all more than words can say.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
