Coming home is amazing...but it always seems to go by too quickly. I got home around 4 today, left for dinner at 5, and have been going through some clothes and decorations to pack back up. Tomorrow I am going to church, lunch with family, and hopefully getting a haircut and doing some shopping before heading back to school in the evening. Now don't think for a second that I have been slacking this past week on homework, because to be honest I have been working a lot. But I am beginning to realize how much I still have to do. So let me make a list of what I have to do...
1. I have to write my exegesis which is around 12 pages long and requires 10 sources and lots and lots of research.
2. I have to write a 15 page paper for college writing which requires 20 sources and lots and lots of reseach.
3. I have to create 5 lesson plans for biology.
4. I have to complete a 12 page study guide for my world civilization class.
5. I have to read 8 passages before my next England meeting.
6. I have to read Persuasion for my England group discussion group.
7. Quite frankly the list goes on and on but I am starting to feel like I am whining too much.
So even if I am completely overwhelmed I am trying to remind myself that it will all be completed eventually. I mean stuff always gets finished so I need to just take it one step at a time. I get frustrated sometimes which the fact that school seems to need to be such a priority. I mean I want to make other changes in my life. I want to have more time to work out, but I always feel like my homework must be done first. I want to take random shopping trips on the weekend, but someone always has homework or an extra assignment or something. I know at this point I need to just take things one step at a time, I just want this year to be amazing. I don't want school to take over my life, and yet I also have to remember that I am at school for a reason. So now that I have ranted and raved...I must say some things that I am excited about.
I am excited to be home with my family and be able to sleep in my wonderful bed tonight!
I am excited to be watching one of my favorite shows I have missed.
I am excited that Revival is starting this week, providing me time to focus on my relationship with God!
I am excited that as frustrating as school may get, that I go to such an amazing school with wonderful friends, professors, and atmosphere!
Well I am getting tired and need to make a plan for tomorrow. So it's time to get off and get ready for everything to come.
Love you all!
Sarah
