Blessings Abound

This is Catherine! Catherine is my roommate here at North Greenville University. I have to admit, I was extremely nervous in the weeks before I moved about meeting Catherine. So many questions and doubts ran through my mind.What would she be like? Would she like me? Would we like any of the same things? My fears, however, were unfounded because we get along beautifully! While we are different in many ways, we are unbelievably similar. For instance, we both love breakfast, Owl City, Hairspray, Dr. Pepper, Kelly Clarkson, Jane Austen, Target, and we're both PCs [sorry Mac enthusiasts]. Apart from the similarity in our preferences, Catherine's heart is what really amazes me. She wants to be a missionary in China and show Jesus to people who might not have a chance to hear about Him otherwise. She's an awesome roommate, a sweet friend, and a bit of a free spirit. I'm confident she'll make me stop studying once in a while and have fun! I'm so grateful to God for Catherine. So many times, roommates just do not get along, but that's not the case with us. I have a feeling we'll be friends for years to come.
