Worthwhile...

There. I did it again. You know what I've had multiple people ask me about?
"Jacob, what are the '...' for at the end of a text?"
I swear, I just put them there cause I'm bored. Honest. They don't mean anything.

Ahem. Continuing on. 
Being in college, I've come to understand the worth of someone/something. Quite literally, what is college worth? My bank account says it's worth about 20k a year (which I don't have); my brain says it's priceless because I get to travel abroad and learn things for my future career; sometimes I also feel it isn't worth it, because I feel like the first year and a half of classes are full of crap and useless.
College, depending on where you go, also makes you question the worth of many non-tangible things, such as friendships. Luckily, my old (back home) friends worth has only increased; I love them and hope it goes on forever. My new friends, their worth is still being assessed. Some will be allowed to stay, some will have to go, but that's life. 
As we continue on here, I'll discover old friends are worth more, and perhaps the best thing I have has really been by me all along. All of my friends, my family, other things that I took for granted, now they've been taken away. It'll take a lot of adjusting, but I know in the end it'll work out. Just gotta trust in God, and he'll lead you to whomever he pleases - odds are you'll like 'em too!
