Hello DS!!!  I know it has been a long time, but I am back!  The last time I really talked with you all I was feeling very lonely and hopeless.  Then I started college in the Fall of 2008.  I didn't do so well in the fall semester.  I was having alot of problems at home that really distracted me.  So I finished the semester with a 1.6 I think, and I was placed on academic probation.  So when the spring semester came, I was blessed to do things alot different.  I appealed for my financial aid, and God blessed for it to go through.  So I went back to school in the spring and worked my butt off, and the Lord blessed me to finish the spring semester with a 3.25-the minimum requirement for the dean's list.  My cumlitive is a 3.1.  I am very proud of myself.  If it is the Lord's will, I will be attending summer school soon.  So pray for me.

College is cool.  It is not like how I expected, b/c I though everyone was going to be out to get me.  It wasn't hardly like that though.  I met alot of cool people, and I had alot of fun.  I learned that people can accept you and love you for who you are.  This fall semester I look forward to going back and moving on campus.  I'll be a big 27 year old college sophmore living in the dormitories.  I know it'll be wierd, but guess what?  It'll be my own spot.  Along with my roommate of course...hahaha...lol!  So DS spring some tips on me about living in a college dorm!  What's it like?  What do I need to take?  I look forward to your responses!  Take care and talk with you soon.
