My Experience So Far.

As our first full week of classes comes to an end I think that I will reflect on my experience here at Wartburg so far. My first day on campus was actually August 13. There were many things going through my mind on that day.   So many feelings I was feeling....I was nervous about being by myself and I had the biggest pit in the bottom of my stomach and the only reason I could think of why this was happening is because it was the feeling of one of the chapters of my life being over and the next one was starting. This was something hard for me at first because it seemed as though the world was moving so fast all around me and I wasn't ready for it. I felt like I couldn't actual enjoy life because it was moving to fast. However, this feeling past very quickly when football started and I actually met some people. It also helped that I was so busy with football that I didn't actually have time to think about any of those other feelings. I started to feel nervous again when classes started up. But again these feelings passed too. Occasionally I get some of these feelings just sitting around doing nothing but then I think of all that is yet to come and how I have so much ahead of me. I forget all the other things and the past and try to live in the present....the here and now....and not worry about what i cannot control.
