This is me
I'm kind of new to this. And, as you can tell from my blog's name, I don't really know what I'm doing. Introductions are always a good place to start, right? Okay. Hi, I'm Lauren, and a few weeks ago, I started my junior year of college.The purpose of a blog is to share. Share new experiences, funny stories, inspiring moments, and all that jazz. Right now, my newest experience is Junior year. It's only been four weeks, but college has a way of blurring the days and simultaneously flicking through them like clicking through television channels. They go by quickly. I can't even remember what I was doing yesterday because I'm so focused on what's happening today and what I need to do tomorrow.
Anyway, it's a new semester, a new job, new classes, new friends to make. Lots of newness.
I'm a daughter, an older sister, a roommate, and a girl who's just trying to figure life out. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I love the gospel of Jesus Christ and its message of truth, healing, and joy. I am addicted to tennis and adore the piano (both playing and listening). Books are the best things in the world. Photography is fun. I hate running but do it anyway because it's "healthy." Fruit desserts are the best and seafood is glorious. So is pasta. I can sort of paint and draw.
Sometimes I can feel lost or confused about the direction my life is going. Sometimes I feel more like I'm floating along through life without actively making decisions or pursuing my dreams. But, at the end of the day, I know exactly what I'm doing and where my life is headed. I have lots of clues about my purpose, my goals, my dreams, and my future (it's called the gospel of Jesus Christ), and the realizations keep on coming. As I take life on one day at a time, I want to share those realizations with as many people as I can.
XO
Lauren
