Today marked the end of the semester. Papers, projects and my single exam are all completed. I hardly know what to do with myself. It all went so quickly. To quickly for my liking. Everyone warned me far in advance that senior year would fly by before I could blink- the truth of their warnings continue to buzz in my ear. I do not think I am ready to graduate. I am not ready to move on with life. Not yet. I am just getting comfortable with where I am, but nothing good can last forever. We have the seasons of our lives for a reason, the challenge is living life to the fullest in the here and now, rather than in the past or the future. Christmas is soon approaching and I could not be more excited! Memory making with family and friends- sign me up! I will attempt a cookie-making extravaganza here in the far near future. We shall see what occurs. Trying to downsize in the anticipation of things yet to come. I have so many things! So many things that I do not need, but simply have because I have been lead to believe that I cannot live without them. Oh consumerism. Carrying on with responsibilities that come with life. Paying bills and scheduling work-trying not to overbook. I am really bad at time-management, and a horrible procrastinator. Not a good combination as a student, but life continues to march on in spite of this fact =) It has been rainy here in the windy city the last several days-not quite cold enough for snow, yet. I dream of a white Christmas home amongst my loved ones. We shall see indeed what the Lord provides. Praying about opportunities for after graduation, teaching at an international school or going to grad school? Prospects are exciting and terrifying at the same time. Much wisdom is needed indeed to make the right one! I have no fear because I know that God will lead me as He sees fit. It is the whole waiting process that can be tricky! =) I ran my first race this weekend with five of my closest girls here at school. Such a blessing! We died half the time, but it was something I will always remember! I hardly know what to do with myself since I don't have anymore homework at the moment. Reading for fun will be nice. Well, I am simply rambling at the moment, I am sure that more profound entries will follow in the far near future.
=)
Happy Monday all!
