A Beginning And An End....

I would like to start this blog by saying that I am NOT an english major, nor an accomplished writer. That being said, please excuse the multiple grammatical mistakes and misspellings that will occur in this blog. I will try to update my blog regularly throughout my journey but I make no promises.

It is crazy to think that in just a few days I won't be a college football player anymore. You would think I would be somewhat prepared for this after ending highschool football...you would be wrong. I can't even begin to express what these last 5 seasons with the Bluehose have meant to me and my family. I have met and made life long friends and had some incredible experiences (sitting in the San Francisco Giants dugout and playing at Clemson). I don't even know how I will begin to cope with no Dirty Five (my boys on the o-line) or early morning winter runnings in sub-freezing temperatures. Okay so maybe I won't miss the runnings so much but all my boys here will be sorely missed.

I am pumped out of my mind to be getting to go play ball in Turkey in about a month and a half. I love to game and He gave me another opportunity to play which is awesome. I am getting everything geared up and ready to go in January. This whole new culture thing is gonna be an experience, esepcially living in a city of 15 million +. Especially since the biggest city I have ever spent any time in is Atlanta and the biggest I have ever lived in is Villa Rica. Like I said, I will try to update this pretty regularly so I won't have to write a book everytime. Alot of stuff will probably be vague for necessary reasons. He will provide and give me courage and protection as I go. I hope yall enjoy.
