Cross Country Friends

I had cross country practice this morning. If you had told me 2 years ago that I would be getting up at 6 am to RUN, I would have considered you a crazy person. But here I am... I ran for 30ish minutes this morning without walking at all, so that was actually good for me.
I am so thankful for all my friends at cross country. I was surprised when I first joined that I didn't feel really stupid. I expected to be made fun of by all the seniors since I'm only a freshman, but I totally wasn't at all. Everyone there (well, most people;)) is really nice and I'm glad to know everyone. These people have to be able to like me when I'm sweaty and tired, so I know they won't let me down.
So far, cross country has been a really great decision for me, and I really hope I continue to get better!

Courtney

I'm excited, because my friend Courtney who lives in Illinois will be coming down here soon:) Courtney is a great friend, and I enjoy all the time I get with her, even though it's not very much. When Courtney comes over, we usually talk and play mad libs. Lots and lots of mad libs:) I don't get to see her in person very much, but thanks to Skype and gmail chat, we are able to keep in touch. I love today's technology:) Although we do write an occasional letter or two:) Because we are apart for so long, the time I do get with Courtney is fun and special.
Thanks so much, Courtney, for being a great friend!

Breanna

I am so thankful for all of my friends that God has placed in my life. My best friend is Breanna. I blog with her at Psalm 119:11. We do so much stuff together, and I'm at her house every chance I get. From running, to playing Mario on the Wii, to watching Untold Stories of the ER at 1 in the morning, we do just about everything together.

Breanna and I are different in a lot of ways, but we get along great. Our differences and similarities have challenged us and helped our friendship grow. I really encourage you to find good friends who can help you grow spiritually. You might have tons of friends that you know from school, sports practice, etc., but if you don't have a close relationship with someone, you cannot have accountability. It is an amazing feeling to know someone that you can tell everything to.

Thanks, Breanna, for being a great friend!!
