Maiden Voyage

So I know that it has been awhile, because I let myself get distracted and etc. All of them are really excuses. 

For the first time in my life I own a car. I have named her Penelope! She is a cutie and I love her. Lets just say that we have bonded a lot these last few days. First off, when she had a slow leak in her tire. So I took her to get it fixed at a tire service place, lets just say that they weren't as helpful as they could have been. They told me that my alignment was out of place and that I would have to get new tires, because it was rubbing my tires in the wrong spot. They said that they couldn't fix it because of liability issues. Inside I was thinking, 'you can't plug the hole??' I went in hoping to get it fixed, but found out that they just wanted to take advantage of me (you would have to have been there to understand their tactics). So I went to another place that told me that they could fix the leak in my tire no problem. Then I went to another more trusted mechanic, they said that the alignment was only a little out of place. Not enough to cause that problem. But that in fact it was my bearing that were loose and that I would need new ones. Got her all fixed up. Gassed her up; took her home and loaded her up for the maiden voyage. My first time driving by myself to school. It took two days to get here, but I made it. Luckily, alive and all in one piece. I have only to thank Heavenly Father and his angels, and all those who prayed for me to travel safely. I seriously could not have done it without them. I am not just saying that either. I mean it with my whole soul. I have said prayers of gratitude and thanks for the protection and safety. I also have prayed for those whom helped me on my way and made this all possible. My heart is brimming with happiness and gratitude. Also, my body hurts like the dickens cause it was a 21 (maybe more) hour drive over all, with little sleep because of the time change and stress. I am also torn between standing and wanting to sit. 

I am thankful to be able to start another school year. Hopefully, I will have great roommates and enjoy this semester. I really hope and pray that I can study hard and do well in my classes. I want to finish school as soon as possible. I will just have to work hard to do so. 

I also have a wonderful family. I will miss them terribly while I am away. I hope that they stay safe and have many blessings poured abundantly upon them. I can not express the depths of my love for them in words. It is something that you will have to feel.
