October 2 2017.

Happy October everyone!!! It's officially pumpkin spice (even though I hate pumpkin flavor), boots, and bon fire season!! Even though we've only had a few days of cool weather and those days are not supposed to last long I am super excited to Welcome the season!! I even downloaded a Halloween ringtone to get me in the mood. Fall is hands down my favorite season (for multiple reasons) but this year I'm spending it in a new city. If you've read my previous post, you probably know that I am now living in Charlotte and attending UNCC for a couple of semesters. Moving almost 2 hours away from home has really hit me hard and the little things like downloading a new ringtone and decorating my apartment are what help me feel a little more at home here in a big city.

There are a lot of things I like about living here and a lot of things I don't like about living here. The first month was probably the toughest to get through however. I was extremely homesick and made very few friends.  My best friend  lives about 2 hours away and everything was extremely different. Especially driving. Traffic in Charlotte is crazy and many people drive as if they have no idea what they're doing(including me, which doesn't exactly go well with the driving anxiety I have).

The first day of class wasn't the first day of classes. It was convocation day. All the newbie students wore the same t-shirt and walked around with their specific colleges and went to mini lectures about their program of study. After hearing multiple stories of people who majored in the same program of study as me and knew from the beginning that it was what they wanted to do for the rest of their lives, I knew my path  wouldn't be the one I was on. I didn't have the gut feeling that said this is where I was meant to be. In fact it was the opposite. My gut was telling me that this wasn't where I was supposed to be. So that day I made a decision. I was going to find a new path.(yet again).

However, the thing about finding a new path is that it doesn't just magically appear out of no where. So, here I am another semester in college (now a JR.) still unsure of what I want to do with the rest of my life. Still lost, wondering why the universe led me here and what does it want me to do. Maybe the universe put me in Charlotte to toughen me up before it tells me what it wants me to do.

Now, you might be wondering why I shared this with you. And that's a good question, because I try and keep my post more picture oriented. But I wanted to share my experience and my story. Most of the time I feel like I'm running out of time to figure out what I'm meant to do with my life.I forget to stop and think that it's okay not to know. It's okay to be lost. For some people great careers and extraordinary lives are not planned. It happens when it's supposed to happen.And that is more than okay.

So, If you're like me and you're not sure what you want to do it's okay. You are not always meant to know. Just keep trucking and living you're life for you. Don't care what other people say as long as it makes you happy. I believe that if that's the way you live then eventually you're life will fall into place as it was meant to.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post!!
Also, before I end this I would like to say thank you to my brother and sister in-law who have made this transition a little easier!
As always, Thanks for reading!
Until Next Time,
