Why Hello There, Senior Year!

Today I started the first day of my last year at Ouachita. I can't really fathom that I'm officially a senior in college and that in a few short months I will be graduating and deciding what to do with the rest of my life.  Weird!  I have high hopes for this year.  As I started the year in the caf with breakfast, coffee, and the Word, I poured out my heart to God.  We talked about how apprehensive I am about classes, friends, and my future.  It's amazing how reassuring His Word is.  He reassured me that as I lay my life down to Him, He will take care of the details. (I read John 15 this morning, and especially learned from verses 12-14. It's a cool little full circle command.  Kinda sweet!)
So, for this year - the last year of my undergraduate degree - I want to live. I want to soak in everything I can at Ouachita and enjoy the place I've called home for the past three years. It's exciting to start the beginning of the end of this journey.  Here's to new things, familiar things, new friends, old friends, school, band, youth, and loving life here in Arkadoo!
For the record, day one of classes was pretty good! I'm stoked about my Cognition and especially History of Psychology classes! Physical science might just be a pain, but I think it'll be alright. It's looking to be a great semester!

I also, hesitantly, want to announce a little project. I've wanted to do this for a while now but haven't had the commitment level to actually do it. However, with this being my senior year, I want to document the year and what better way to do that than through pictures. I mean, I love pictures, so why not take one everyday? Plus it'll help me to improve my photography skills.  Therefore, I'm implementing a "Project 365." A picture a day. Rules, you ask? Well, it has to be a good quality picture of something that sums up what I was involved in for the day.  No requirement of people or me or neither, so just whatever I feel like photographing.  I've told some friends and since I'm announcing it on here, maybe I'll actually have a full commitment and finish it till the end. (:
So...Here goes nothing, or something great (take your pick).

I haven't taken a picture yet for today, but I will. I haven't decided what I want it to be yet. So, be on the look out for a surprise! (:
