I was supposed to head up on Thursday -- the day after I had returned from St. George. I was so overwhelmed on Wednesday night. My dad was supposed to take me, but things fell through and he wasn't able to. Luckily I have a very nice best friend who offered to take me. But I still didn't want to go. At all. Said best friend convinced me to go and Thursday morning at 5:45 we were off to Logan.
The was long and hard and crazy. I had been waiting for college for so long, but didn't understand how I could have gone from a care-free high school student to college bound overnight.
That day I had to take a math test, was shown around by overly excited student body officers, had a bunch of orientation, and finally met with my adviser and registered for classes. Boy was it a scary time.
Finally, the day ended. Though I was exhausted, I felt great peace. From the moment I walked onto campus to the moment I left, I knew everything was right and good. As we were driving up, I felt so much fear and doubt. I was second guessing my judgement left and right. I didn't want to be a grown up anymore. I wanted to runaway, never go to school, and start the first Mormon convent. But I thankfully got a reminder that what I was doing WAS right. I love this quote from Elder Holland.
Don't doubt yourself. I made the decision to go to Utah State months ago. And I prayed about it and trusted it and lived for it. And it is still right now.
The church is true my friends. Don't you forget it!

SOAR is a long crazy day. I remember doing that. I was definitely second guessing myself by the end. But I LOVE USU. So excited for you!
