Sophomore Year = too little sleep + two(ish) years to go :)

1. These past few days have been pure chaos (or at least that's what it feels like). My work schedule + my class schedule could potentially kill me...SOON. I considered posting my full schedule (both work and class) but I didn't want to sound like a complete whiny-baby, so I refrained ;). Basically, I'm just going to have to buckle down and suck it up. I know that as the year progresses I will adjust and maybe even grow to love it (cross your fingers. ha)...but right now all I know is that I'm tired. All. The. Time. I am just going to have to rely on God to really restore me physically, mentally, and emotionally throughout the year.

2. My apartment situation is interesting to say the least. I really do love the girls I'm living with, I just have a feeling this year will be more of a ministry than a living arrangement for me...

3. Speaking of my apartment, I LOVE LOVE LOVE having my own kitchen :) Definitely my favorite part so far. Also, having my own bathroom/shower again (shared with only one of my roomies) is a HUGE plus. PTL.

4. I have been driving myself crazy lately trying to figure out what I should start reading in my quiet times (because I'm completely cliche and want to have a new routine for this coming school year ;)). I'm thinking of reading through Psalms and (Fill-in-the-Blank), but I can't decide what else to read through...the Gospels? Major/Minor Prophets? Pauline Letters? I know I can't really go wrong, I'm just trying to chose one I can really delve in to...so feel free to give input :)

5. My classes are a little intimidating. I have this sneaking suspicion that Greek is going to eat my lunch (mostly because I REALLY dislike studying). Intro to Religious Education should be pretty tight (and VERY similar to the Educational Ministry of the Church, which I took last semester with the same prof. ha). The big surprise was that my History of Christianity class is almost ALL seniors, so I'm wondering if I should have been warned or something before I signed up for it...but once again, I love the prof (he taught my Christian Doctrine class), so I'm sure I'll like it. And lastly, I have Statistics for Social Sciences (YAWN!). Ugh. I hate math. I hate math. I hate math. So that's pretty much a DD....Oh, and I'm taking an online english from lonestar but I'm not too worried about that.

Anyways, that just about sums it up! I'll try to start posting more regularly now that I'm settling in to a routine.

If it helps, I am going through the Gospels and Psalms in my quiet times! ha. I am still in Matthew right now. It is tight! :)

Girl, this semester is already killing me and I don't even have work! I can't imagine what its like for you! I will be praying for you girl. Good luck! :)

Having your own kitchen is really going to help as you prepare for that MRS degree ;)

I MISS YOU.
