A Good Days Work.

Not a perfect day.  But certainly pretty good.

I put my every-hour-of-every-day-planned-out-routine to its first test today.  I got up a half hour later than scheduled and as a result didn't fit devotions in until my designated discretionary time.  Otherwise, after I post this blog, I accomplished all my goals pretty expediently.  (Well...I'll have to floss tonight as well.)

Jake found it funny that I had to put "hygiene" on my schedule. Well.  It's imperative these days that I remember that kinda stuff.  I'm in girl hunting mode.  and the future, it would seem, has recently gotten a lot brighter. Potentially.

Hi Aunt Gwen.

Hi Mom.  I know you LOVE to read my blog.  I do apologize for how brief I've been recently. Also for not posting at all for extended periods of time.

My morning run to red square and back was quite nice.  I did not trip and fall even once this time.  Very nice.

I continue to be fatigued throughout the day.  I'm hoping with a banana bolstered diet, consistent sleeping hours, and regular exercise this will be remedied.  We'll see how I'm feeling in a week or so.  Hopefully better.  It is definitely frustrating to not be able to keep my eyes focused on a text for longer than 15 minutes in the library.

Jake led GC tonight in Greg's absence.  in preparation for him starting his campus based GC.  He did pretty gal darn well I must say.  It was appetizer buffet tonight.  So much disgustingly delicious and heart-attack inducing food.  Nehemiah Chapter 2.

My Philippians memorization has slowed down quite a few paces in the last week or so.  Paul's chains might have really served to advance the Gospel, but I'm not advancing much beyond them myself.  Time to get a little more agressive.

A pop-quiz is imminent in 307.  and I'm behind on the reading.  It will be a long day learning about civil society in China tomorrow.  I've also got a load of Hawthorne and Poe to read for 309.  Again I'll say this quarter is proving to be considerably more rigorous.  Especially 307.  So much reading.  Every night.  Should I pull of a trio of Aish grades and keep to this hour-by-hour plan for my life the next 3 months,  I will feel more accomplished than I have ever before.  (too much emphasis on me! where is God?)


Jake and I are working on more honest and fluid communication betwixt the two of us.  and I think it has worked out well.  The last two days at least.

I was quite pleased to find my maroon tie in a pile of my mothers old garments, bringing my grand total to six!  Now I am only missing my swirly blue tie that I lent to Jason at youth group 4 years ago or so.

Austin made reference to Josh by saying his hair was like mine tonight.  I was quite flattered.  Where are all the single ladies at GC?  I tell ya'...  Not like I'd be man enough to carpe anyone's diem. Gah.  Patience and Prayer.  but a plan is not an unGodly thing to have! and I must know when to act.  Walk that line.

Tax season.  I never did the FAFSA w/ mom.  Don't forget to do that $2,500 tax credit.  That Expected family contribution better get cut in half.  Then maybe I'd be eligible for some stinking aid of some sort.  At least a subsidized loan!  In the mean time.  I must help myself.  Job hunting is now atop my list of things to do when I am on par w/ my reading.  and I must actually be doing some of it.

BRACE THE GATE!
