Community and friendship. I realized looking back on it that freshman year I was missing ministry and community. Don't get me wrong I had some of the best friends and some of the best times with those friends and they helped me through a lot of hard things that year. But now that I've been at Clemson for almost 2 years I feel like I've been here the whole time and wouldn't ask for a any other place to be.
That's literally the best part about college: meeting people, making friends, investing in people, and living life together.
Tonight Becca and I were able to have a roomie dinner and we had a great night eating sushi and talking about life---seriously the lord has blessed me with a great roommate. Then as we were getting comfy on our couches watching Waterboy in our apartment a large group of boys come through the door looking for cookies. Naturally I decided to make some cookies (I would have taken a picture but literally as soon as they were out of the oven and on the plate they were gone).
Anyways with all of that said I loved every bit of tonight because it encompasses my college life. I love that I live in a place where the community is so evident and that people will just bee-bop into our apartment and hang out because that's what college and life is about isn't it? It's about relationships, it's about enjoying each others' company, its about investing in each other, its about sharing good times and bad, its about challenging each other, and most of all it's about showing Christs' love and helping to build each others' faith.
So if you ask me what my favorite thing about college is...it's community it's about my Clemson family that I love and would never want to pass up.
I hope you have that community and friendship
With all my love- Cam
