1st down!

Today I finished my first week at school. I'm exhausted, but I made it through the first week! As my mom and I would say, I made a first down. Being from the south we are of course football fans, so it seemed like the perfect metaphor. My mom definitely won her game when she graduated from nursing school this summer. I'm just looking to make it to the end of the 1st quarter at this point. That would be the end of the semester for those of you who are not catching on. ;)

I'm starting to learn my way around and I really like this city. My heart is still currently with Atlanta, but there are some good things I can say about this place.

Classes went really well. I really like all of my professors and I really like that they each begin class with a prayer. Really puts you in the right frame of mind. Also, my professors are really funny. Neat individuals who really love the Lord and who are extremely intelligent; I look forward to getting to know them more. I have read more in the last week than I have all summer! I think I may need glasses because by Thursday night I thought my head would explode if I looked at another book or computer screen. I should start working this week so it will be interesting to see how I balance all of that. I know the Lord is good and He will provide.

I know this is short, but I just wanted to give a quick update. I will write more later because I'm definitely learning a lot and have a lot more to share. :)
