Love will find a way to bloom

I came to Idaho knowing no one. I was scared out of my mind. I basically had no family and no friends. I think approximatively 3 people from my high school were the only people I knew my first semester. It's amazing to me to see how much has changed and to see how many new people I have met, and how many I can't imagine my life without. My cousin LeDawn was the only family I had here and she took me under her wing and treats my like a sister. She has me over for dinner all the time and I know I have a safe haven to run to if I ever need one. She has helped me through the all time lows I have had here. I have also lived with some of the most amazing people on this earth. I have learned something life changing from each and every person I have lived with. It's unbelievable how well you can get to know people and how much love you can have for them for only living with them for 3-4 months. My roommates are my family away from home. They are the ones that make me feel loved when I think I'm all alone. Once you live with someone, you move to a different kind of friendship that could never me mimicked by anyone else. You get that undesirable love that would make you do anything for them no matter what. That is probably the number one thing I will take away from BYU-I. How to serve. It has made me such a better person watching my roommates serve each other. Now I have inherited that and I love every second of it. Just doing simple things like writing each other a note and saying what you feel whether it be bad or good. There is no holding back, and laying it all on the table. They are my family and you have to be blunt with your family. I have 4 semesters worth of roommates to thank for helping me become the person I am today. I will forever love them.

It's roommates you can have a picnic in your room with that are the ones that will make all the difference. They are the ones that will stick with you through thick and thin. They will forever be your sisters.
