My Velvet Ditch❤️ Wow how fast time flies!? They tell you that four years will go bye like the blink of an eye, but you can’t really understand it until you experience it. When you think about it college can be summed up into a couple sorority recruitments, four football seasons, surprisingly two snow weeks, eight finals weeks, a last in and last out World Series win, one culture building basketball season, and the many memories and lessons that come in between (these are specifically to us at Ole Miss, but I think the rest of you catch my drift). That really is not that much time to spend in a place, but somehow in college we become engulfed completely in the places we are now calling our Alma Mater. I truly don’t know how I ended up spending four years in a small town in Mississippi and if you had told me a couple years ago that’s where I would be going to college I wouldn’t have believed you. I know that sounds cliché and I know many other people feel that way about where they choose to go, but I can’t tell you that I never contemplated whether I made the right choice by coming here. I realize now that the Lord doesn’t make mistakes and He led me here regardless of if I always understood it or not. I can thankfully say now that I do understand why I was led here. The growth I’ve seen in myself and the people around me because of Him and because of our shared place is immensely worth every tear filled night questioning this decision. The memories I will take with me forever, the environment of a small town like Oxford, the late night studying or car rides when we couldn’t sleep, the sisters I paid for;) the dedication of these people who love Ole Miss more than anything in the world, the Hotty Toddy’s and incorporating y’all into my vocabulary permanently – these are the things that changed my life forever. He is more faithful than I ever could’ve hoped. I am so eternally grateful that I was able to have this chapter be apart of my story. I owe it all to Him! I will carry these Mississippi memories with me forever and ever! The spot that ever calls, until next time. Thank you forever my dear Ole Miss🤍
