First Day

Well. Here I go. Here is my blog, and here you will read and experience some of my innermost thoughts, feelings, and ideas.

Today was the first day of college.  At Belmont University.  Notice this distinction.  People told me being a music major would be hard, but... I never knew THIS hard. I mean, it's day 1 for crying out loud!
5 classes spanning from 8 am to 5 pm is tough, with only 2 hours of break in between.  All music. All the time. Now. I'm really not COMPLAINING, I promise. This is what I've wanted to do my whole life, and it's finally here.  I'm so privileged to be here, to have gotten here, I wouldn't give it up for anything.
BUT...
a teacher telling you on the first day that your major is pointless and that he personally favors majors that "can put food on the table," to me, is a bit rough.
-But it's not gonna scare me, not gonna bring me down.

For all reading this... I would love it if y'all could send me some suggestions of popular music I could sing for my seminar class! It can be literally ANYTHING that's NOT classical OR Musical Theatre! I'd love your comments! :) It can be from any genre, any time period, (within reason). :)

So needless to say, today was a day for Phillipans 4:13.   "I CAN [and am determined to] do ALL things through CHRIST, [and Christ alone] who strengthens me."
I always knew there was a reason this was my favorite verse.

So hello world, whoever may be reading this.  I am on the journey of the rest of my life, and I am prepared to conquer the world with my Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior and my Guide.
He strengthens me to be all that I am, and all I will be in the future, and I cannot even BEGIN to imagine life without the Lord.

Also, skype is the best invention in college. I love you family! :) Thanks for talking!

I love you Jesus,
thank You for everything now, and all that You will solely be the reason I overcome the things of the future...

Amen, and Goodnight!

Megan :)

Day 1.
