Sometimes...

... you have three days to write a 10 page research paper that you have barely researched. Sometimes you are about to have a panic attack. Sometimes you are thankful that it is a rough draft, but sometimes rough drafts still count. Sometimes you just have to try to focus and do your best even when nothing is coming to you to write.

I don't like those times...

BUT Mumford and Sons :)

Can you lie next to her
And give her your heart, your heart
As well as your body
And can you lie next to her
And confess your love, your love
As well as your folly
And can you kneel before the king
And say I'm clean, I'm clean

Chorus:
But tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with all my heart
Oh tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with all my heart

A white blank page and a swelling rage, rage
You did not think when you sent me to the brake, the brake
You desired my attention but denied my affections, my affections

Chorus

Lead me to the truth and I will follow you with my whole life 
Lead me to the truth and I will follow you with my whole life 

I have so much on my mind. There is so much school I have to do. Mostly a 10 page research paper. Exams are coming up. I am stressed.. BAHHHH! Can I please have a break.

Yes, I am Avoiding Homework.

My word! Why does the solarium have to be so relaxing! I almost fell asleep in a public place... the good thing is that is looked down upon almost everywhere except on a college campus. If you saw someone sleeping in a Starbucks you would think, "Man they are in public they need to wake up!". However, if you saw someone sleeping in a coffee shop onnn campus you would think, "They look comfortable and happy. I wish they did not take that couch cause it is the most comfy sleeping couch." Except the thing is that I actually have notmycouchaphobia which is the scientific term for being afraid that couches are full of nasty things that might get on me.. couches have so many crevices! Therefore I would rather fall asleep in this hard noncrevicey chair with my head on this hard noncrevicey table than a couch that I don't trust.

Another thing I have been meaning to discuss is the temperature of the showers in Coltrane. They are two temperatures: arctic and boiling your skin off. It is quite pleasant. That is all I have to say on the subject. Also I have been pondering the thought of making hair wallpaper for the people that put their hair all over the shower walls. Lets see how they like THAT. Just rinse it down the DRAIN people!

tests are lame

Apparently the cure for Senioritis was not, as previously speculated, to graduate from high school. 

false.

Laundry is fun, laundry is great
I want to do laundry on a date

Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 3:13-14


Straining is difficult. Pressing on is hard. Not dwelling on the past is challenging. 


Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. - Deuteronomy 31:6


Good thing we never have to do it alone :) 

Never Grow Up - Taylor Swift

I know that this song is not according to God's plan, and so much incredible stuff wouldn't have happened in my life if I stayed young, but there is a part of me that relates with this song. Sometimes it seems like with each year life becomes exponentially more complicated. Growing up is so hard and I doubt it stops being hard ever. 


Oh darling don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh darling don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up
It could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you
Wont let no one break your heart
No one will desert you
Just try to never grow up
Never grow up


But my life would be without the happiest moments of my life if I had been content to be a child for the rest of my life.

I do not mean for the post to make it sound like I hate college and am doing terribly and cry every night because that would be a lie. I like it here, I know lots of people, it's pretty, I am doing well in my classes, and occasionally I think: "I am really having a great time!" So with all that said..

I miss:
- Food made by my mom.
- Upward basketball
- Teaching kids
- Having a place to go and just be alone for a littttle while
- Having a place to go where I know everything and everyone
- Storm
- My own bathroom (Knowing that the hair stuck to the walls is either mine or Amy Grace's..)
- Knowing where I am and how to get to things (stupid bamboo road. that's all i have to say.)
- Diet COKE
- Classes taught by awesome people (Aaron, Nissa, Ansley, etc)
- The co clan
- My mom's camera
- Places to shop
- Being able to drive
- And people. I miss people a lot.
