Halfsies

Wow, it's been a week since my last post, but I have been so unbelievably busy (midterms...suck) that I have barely had to time to check my e-mail let alone hit up my blog. For that, I am very sorry to the crowds of followers I am so sure I have. I know it must have been so rough for you :)

I was talking to a close friend of mine when I suddenly realized I'm halfway through the first semester of my freshmen year. I mean, Halloween is so close and Thanksgiving is just around the corner, two events I honestly cannot wait for. It seems to all be flying by so quickly but at the same time, I feel like I can keep the pace. I'm finding myself more easily organized, thinking clearly about the things I need to, and focusing most of my energy on just getting everything done. I've even started keeping my closet organized, which is revolutionary for me.

When I went to church this Sunday, the pastor did the miraculously thing he usually does and gave a sermon on exactly what I needed to hear; It was all about opening up to all the possibilities and opening your eyes to be able to see all the wonderful potential around you. That's why I've been just keeping my priorities general and easily at bay because I know that the biggies are coming, and I've just been biding my time until I can just accept them and take them as they are. So as the middle of my semester is passing me, while I idly wave it on, I like to think that I am just taking things as they come and just letting everything stay open enough where I can be happy with what I have. Which I am. Incredibly so.

So with keeping my options open, studying like crazy, and just attempting to keep everything going forward in general, I couldn't be happier to realized I'm right where I should be. It's nice to think that I'm about to be over the hill of the hard part and that I'm coming out of all this relatively unscathed (although my brain may or may not survive the cramming that is going on up there). Also, the obvious lack of sleep has begun to take its toll. I'm okay, so it's okay.

P.S. I wish they didn't make that stupid movie called P.S. I Love You so I could write P.S. I love you without thinking about that. But I do love you.
