Sooooo...once again I've stayed up late and haven't started my blog entry until after midnight, but I think I'd still consider this an official "Day 27" post :)
It's never easy to be away from home, and I've never had to make many decisions for myself until I came to college. When I was living under my parents roof there were many rules that I had to follow and most of my decisions were made with their assistance. Now that I'm in college I'm independent and I am forced to make my own decisions; whether or not I make the right choice is up to me. Sometimes I forget that and I call my parents for little decisions that I could be making on my own. Anyway, I think that college has been a great experience for me in being able to make my own choices and personally handle the consequences of my actions.
Making choices would be much harder though if I hadn't been raised by such amazing parents. I know that I've shared my love and gratitude for them before, but this time it's in a different way. My parents, though sometimes really strict, have given me all the right tools to be able to handle myself as an independent person. I can't thank them enough for that. Now, when tempting situations come along I feel like I can make the decisions that best fit my interests. They've taught me how to balance my life with many great things while keeping up with school and church at the same time. Who knows where I'd be without them?!?!
I love you Mommy and Daddy!
