life here is stimulating, exciting, new, fresh, and progressive. god is taking me on a marvelous ride. i can feel myself changing, but it's something abstract and i'm not sure if i could convey how or in what specific, subtle way. i went to the gold star chapel the other day and jotted down a prayer request: Jesus, be my first love - captivate my heart. it boggles my mind that i'm here. is it weird that i still feel this way seven weeks into the school year?
