These past couple of weeks have been beyond crazy. Life has "begun" again as my sophomore year kicked off. Always blessed but at times stressed, I've been pushing through a new beginning. This year has been really interesting as I've tried to seperate myself from some of the activities that my peers engage in. The great thing about it is that none of it is intentional. It's become a true change in my spirit and desires.
Some have said that I've gone "ghost" lately. Not true! It's just that staying off the scene is so much fun. I had enough of the "being seen" stuff last year. With every revelation, my priorities change and my focus becomes clearer. I hope the same for you. I'm shooting for a 4.0 this semester, so I've realized that a lot of things have to be cut out and I'm enjoying that process.

A friend of mine told me that they can't stand being alone. Their thoughts consume them and it's frightening. How can your thoughts be frightening? When you don't know how to control or cope with the relaity of your life. I revel in my thoughts and that alone time or time with just a single friend is the best.
I'm also seeing the value of true friendships and relationships. Often, we know people but we don't really know them. Just their title or who they associate with. To really value someone and learn and grow from them, it's important to really get to know them and obtain a deeper connection. So, hopefully I get to really know people this year and vice-versa.
Love,
Alexandria Collins
