Brand New

Here I am in my new residence and I can barely believe that the day has come. I had thought so much about what it was going to be like only to find out it’s nothing how I thought it would be. It’s much better. I feel calm now, at ease, knowing that this big move has finally happend and I can now start my journey towards my future.

Isn’t it exciting to know you have achieved something that you only dreamed of. To know that I am okay to be on my own is really a great feeling. I can’t say that having diabetes has changed much about the whole sitation. Since being here, my diabetes has not changed anything as far as how I go about living. I still was able to check my sugars while moving in without even worrying about anything.

I had barely any stress today so my sugars stayed within target.I am so excited that I can finally experiance college with diabetes. Of course there are going to be days where I have no idea what to do but I know that with all the obstacles that have come up I am able to handle them. This is the start to something completely brand new. Not only am I learning each and everyday how to handle my diabetes at school I could possibly be helping thousands of other first year students living with diabetes all around the world.
