It's Just The Beginning

My school year has come to a close and my summer is getting ready to start. I'm getting so excited and so nervous at the same time. During this week, I have been trying to get all my stuff situated for this new adventure that I'm about to embark on. I've bought all the stuff that I need. I have an eye doctors appointment to get contacts tomorrow. I'm getting my clothes ready and my room clean. I'm starting to realize that I'm going to be putting myself out of my comfort zone. 

One thing about me is that I can be an incredibly shy person. I'm learning that shyness doesn't get you anywhere and that for me to meet new people and get things done, I have to talk. I'm about to meet and be around people I have never met before 24/7. Yes, I've had small conversations with them on Facebook chat but that only goes so far. My biggest fear is the beginning. I'm nervous about the start. But, it's just the beginning. I'm excited for the relationships that I'm going to make. I'm excited for what God has in store for me and my team this summer. I'm excited that for 6 weeks of my summer I'm going to be at church camp. I'm excited that I get to travel to Tennessee and California for 3 weeks each. I have all this excitement. I'm just hoping that my nerves don't get the best of me. That the first day, I will walk in and make instant and life-long connections and relationships that will have a positive influence on my life. 

This summer is going to be tough but I have no doubt that its going to be a summer that I will never forget.
