For the most part, I am an intorvert. I mean I like my alone time, I like small groups, feel alone in big groups, and feel drained after being surrounded by people. But there are moments when I love to be the life of the party, I like to be the guy who seems always happy, who seems different from everyone else. If its meeting new people, I am not shy at all because it is something I love to do. When it comes to being thrown into a new group of people I love to start introducing myself, making jokes, and getting to know everyone. In moments like those I feel like a stud, hehe. I mean sometimes I wish I could be that guy all the time. In those moment I feel cool, I feel appreciated, popular, admired. Honestly, though, those times that I feel like that are very few. Other times I wish I could be that guy, that guy making the jokes, directing the conversation, making the group fun. In these other times I am usually on the sidelines with nothing to say. And sometimes the reason I say nothing is because i have nothing to say. I don't make stuff up, I only speak when I have something to contribute. With all that having been said, today was a freshman orientation of sorts, and I was thrown in a group with all new people, and well needless to say I felt like the stud, hehe :)
With college starting, and everything going on, I find myself overwhelmed with all the things that I need to pray about. There is family, friends, finding an accountability partner, maybe finding a mentor, for the cross country team, temptation, a girl/girls, career choice, witnessing, meeting new people, getting a close group of Christian friends.... I mean really the list just goes on and on. I mean how do you narrow down prayer? All of those things are important things that I need to pray for, but there is so much. I feel like there are so many different things going on in my mind that I don't know which I should focus on most at the moment, because they feel like almost all of them need top priority. I guess I must have faith that the Holy spirit will intercede for me with groans and express the prayers that I can not.
