  • Whew. These last few weeks have been crazy. Scratch that. The last few MONTHS have been crazy. I've been spending close to 8-10 hours at my computer (daily) all summer long writing papers for grad school. Although it was fascinating and I learned alot, I was really ready to finish. I was so stressed my the end of it I had to leave early to go see my family. I couldn't sit still! :S Now I'm back after a two-week non-stop people-filled vacation. I'm tired now. Classes start again on Monday but I don't have any until Tuesday. It'll be a fun and interesting ride this semester. So much to do!!!

    Foggy Brains

    Okay, so last night (well the last few days) I felt like I was fighting something, so I took NyQuil right before I went to bed at 10pm. I woke up to my alarm at 6am, decided to give myself another hour. I woke up, did my Bible study, then fell asleep at 8am, had an alarm set for 9am, turned it off, woke up at 9:45 when my arms started hurting (they both fell asleep on me), then stared in a drugged fog for twenty minutes. Now I'm up physically, but that's about it. To prove my point, check out the list sentence. I do believe it's a run on. Ugh.

  • Well, here I am once more. I'm not even going to get into the fact that I am lax in my blogging-ness. Here's the deal:

    I worked all weekend and came up with nothing. I crossed nothing off my list, my apartment is trashed, and I'm still swamped. Then I realized that while I have not actually crossed anything off my list, I did work hard all weekend. What did I do? I wrote.

    I started a story weeks ago for my writing fiction class. I worked on it all weekend, only to realize that it has betrayed me. It's a novel. I'm supposed to write a short story. So, although I'm happy I have the beginnings of a novel, it really doesn't help me any in the small scheme of school.

  • Well, there goes another resolution down the drain. I decided that I would keep up with my blog more consistently this year, but no. Not me. Oh well, I guess this is more regular than the last year has been.
    Right now I'm sitting in a Super 8 room (the bed and pillows are really comfy) and am writing to you. I don't particularly know what to write except that my sister Virginia is hilarious. Let me tell you, I would have been a fool to not let her come on this trip. I can think of very few times in the day and a half that she has not cracked me up. We've had a lot of fun. We're checking out a college here in Missouri. It's really a great spot. Absolutely gorgeous. I can't believe I'm going back to school here. It's totally a God thing and not at all me.
    Kinda takes the pressure off, knowing that God put me here and has to keep me here. I'm nervous but very excited and ready for bed. Good night.

  • Knots

    There are so many shades and layers of perspective. Have you noticed that? The artistic person sees life through an artistic filter. The cynic see the world accordingly, as do the innocent, the naive, hypochondriac, net-worker, pupil, ... the list could go on forever. Since everyone sees everything so differently, how do we know who truly sees? I don't know, it just seems like perspectives are always warped, and if we could just gather all the perspectives together to form one huge pair of glasses through which we could view the world, maybe we could figure out what's going on, where we're going, and what the heck we're supposed to do. But, of course, the most important thing to remember during life and the sorting through the knot called Life is that "nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition" (Monty Python boys).

    Grab some anti-oxidants and have a marvelous day!
