Hello World.

Take a breath. Here we go. I'm venturing back into the wonderful world of blogging. It has been a few years since my last attempt to blog. (Aptly named: "Daily ramblings from a girl named Katie." Embarrassing, I know) Needless to say, it didn't go so well. My posts were filled with angsty ninth grade attitude. So now, four years later, I am trying again.

Let's hope this attempt is more successful.

Please let me know if I start sounding angsty.

Anyways, as I sit in a study room (ahem, thanks to Sarabeth) in the good ole James B. Duke Library, I can't help but reflect on these past few months. They've been quite the whirlwind. I mean, really. It's weird to think back on last August and then look at where we all are now. It seems like so long ago that we went downtown to celebrate a completely random person's birthday. We have all talked about how hilarious it is to look back on who all we hung out with in the first few weeks of school. And, I am so thankful for the sweet friends that God has put into my life here at Furman. They really have made all the difference. When I look back on my freshman year of college, memories of all our crazy moments will remain the highlight of my year. I don't like thinking about being away from them for three months so we're not going to talk about that here. This is a happy, angst-free blog :) But, all in all, freshman year=massive success.

So, that was my first post. I don't feel like it is as funny as Chellie's or Hilary's. Or as heartfelt as Sarabeth or Leilina's. But, as Chellie put it this afternoon, it can only go up from here.
