It has been WAY too long since I have blogged on here and I apologize to any of you who are still my readers lol, and if you not I do not blame you because I have been off in a far land of not blogging! That being said though I am back and back to stay because I realized how much I missed this and the community of people who read it and really just want to document my life as I go through so much in these years of being in college and making some of the biggest choices of my life. I love to read Kelly's Korner and how she says yes I blog for my readers, but I also feel it's for the blogger as well to be able to document the things in your life. To me it's almost like an online scrapbook and a small window into you life and heart and that is what I want mine to be seen as :).
I will deff. still continue to talk a lot about my weight loss for sure because it is such a huge aspect in my life, but as time goes on I am realizing it's not my whole life but yet just a big part of it so that is why the "Change" square in my header got added, because it is an ongoing process of change in my life, getting to new goals, staying at current ones and living a healthy lifestyle while encouraging others to do them same!
My first square in my collage is Faith, and representing my faith in Jesus Christ. That cube is deff. the most important of all because without my faith I am NOTHING. This year I have gone through many trials with family issues, changes, schooling, continuing the weight loss, and without God in all that I would have never made it. This year I believe He pulled me through many things to bring me to Him eve deeper than before, actually WAY deeper than before because I think while I was young and didn't know He was kind of just a figure in my mind not really a God I needed to have a daily personal relationship. I will deff. be posting more on this and the amazing change Christ is doing in my heart and other issues that come up because being a Christian college student can be difficult at times and I am deff. FAR from perfect at it but I am trying and through my struggles I know I will learn more and more :o).
My bottom left square is for family which while it has changed this year as I have lost the relationship with my mom, it has grown a ton because I have been able to become close to my Dad and be the best big sister I can to my SEVEN....yes you read right lol, 7 siblings! Now that I am living on my own and in college the dynamics really have changed and it is harder to be as close but we are all close in a different way and can encourage each other even from a far or not so much in each other's daily lives. They mean the world to me and I love them a lot and know posts will surely come from them :)!
And lastly my final square is about Belief and Hope, and those are two things that are going to cover a wide spectrum of things for my blog, kind of like the "everything else" category haha. I do have meaning in the fact my reason for picking it is because right now at 20 and in college life seems SO uncertain some days, and all I have is Belief in my dreams and Hope in a future that I know God will provide but that I must take the steps towards even when they are uncertain. So this many be Belief in my major(which I am currently maybe possibly changing again lol!) belief in love that some day I will find that prince charming even though at the moment it seems impossible but I KNOW I KNOW haha I am only 20 thankfully ;o). Hope that I will make it through college and get this dream job I have in mind, Hope that I will get back to my goal fully and find a place that I am happy with my body and not always asking for more and seeing the imperfections. And then of course some fun topics like fashion and life and frankly sometimes just what is on my mind.
I have realized this last year I am a very expressive person and love to talk things out so for that reason I decided I need to blog and felt led to do it even just to share a couple things that some people might enjoy and also for the weight loss part too, great accountability and fun to be able to relate with others because as always it's not "diet" but a lifestyle change so it never ever stops! Well I am going to head off here and get ready for church but I hope this post gets read and that this is the beginning of something great on my blog just with some new changes :o).
Happy Sunday!
