Hello fellow bloggers. My name is Murray Poole. I am a freshman at Mississippi College. I am from Memphis, TN (Go Tigers!). I went to Briarcrest Christian High School. It is a Baptist based school somewhat like Mississippi College, so in some ways I feel like I am at the college version of my high school. I guess that would be one of the reasons I like Mississippi College.
My teacher has asked me to think about and write about why i have come to Mississippi College. As I thought about why I ended up at Mississippi College, I realized that when I first made the decision to come here I still was unsure that it was the right decision. My Senior High Youth Leader came here and he is the one who first introduced me to MC. I am a sports fanatic, mainly focused on football. To tell you the truth, football is one of the main reasons I chose MC. I am a running back for the football team and so far I have loved every minute of it. Though the football program is one of the main reasons that I chose MC, I still understand that the main reason for choosing any school is education.
As for my major, I still am not sure. At the moment I am majoring in Business only because I know that is an option for me. Another Major I am cosidering is Physical Therapy. Again because of my love of sports, I think that I would have a great time being a Physical Therapist or trainer for a Division 1 sports team. Not only would I do this simply to be around sports my whole life, but to know how the human body works and to know what steps to take when something goes wrong. I love learning about how God has created the complex human body.
I am having a great time meeting new people and learning the ways of college life. While I still am unsure if this is truly the place that I want to be the next four years, I know that God has a plan for me and will lead me where I need to go.

WOW haha I didn't expect you to write so well or be so deep, I guess I was just being a little stereotypical of you because you were a football player. Speakin of that, did you make the dress out team? If so, what number are you? And I was at the Ole Miss vs. Memphis game last week as I am every year. I actually tutored their old quarter-back (not first string, but he was there the last two years), Matt Malouf in math lol!
I am with you, i only declared a major because im interested in it, its still up in the air if i keep it or not. but im sure we will make our decision soon enough
i am playing football too, but im also an Ole Miss Rebels fan.i'm not gonna say what happened last weekend. i hope you find the right major.
Always pray if you are unsure about something in your life. God is always going to be your best friend and He will always have your back.
you are right about that, God will lead you where you are to go and what you are to do with your life. don't stress too much over the details now, because soon you will see the whole picture.
I know what you mean about the whole major thing...i'm majoring in pre-med b/c of certain reasons but also b/c i love learning about the human body. Well good luck with football and with your major!
well put together dude, i admire you keeping God at the helm of your future here, keep it up!
