I’m a Big Kid Now!
I guess before I came to college I didn’t think about all the parts about school, and money, and well life. I think I had it in my mind that I was just going to be living away from my parents, doing whatever I want, and answering to no one. In reality though, that isn’t what has happened, and I am kind of glad. I learned right away, yes I still have to answer to my parents, even if I don’t live with them. They ARE paying for my education. Classes do matter, and are sometimes quite difficult and take a lot of work to succeed in, and money, goodness does it go fast… In all of this though, I think I have already grown up a bit, just since they time I have been here. I am on my own. Independent would be the word. I am a big kid now!!!!!! I love it!!!!!

Lord, I almost cried reading this. Glad you’ve mastered the class is hard mantra - took me at least a year and a half to grasp that…might be why I didn’t get to keep the Hope scholarship too long.

Just don’t get too big to not need the rest of us. You’ve always been “bigger” than your age. I love you girl!
