back in the game!

welcome back, sam!

yes, i have been out of sorts and out of commission for about a week now, replacing my daily times in the library with afternoons camped out on my couch, consuming cocktails of wal-phed, theraflu, and various vitamin c supplements.

but i am BACK! with both nostrils free for breathing, a cup of coffee, and a mini-mountain of work i'm kind of really behind on.

i may not be at 100%, but a functioning 80% is all i need to spend from now until 8:00 in the library, on my favorite row of computers, with approximately 10 tabs open to satisfy my attention deficit disorder. i shiver at the sound of a sneeze or cough, knowing that my beloved library is a breeding ground for H1N1 and all kinds of viruses and grossnesses. but i'm hoping that whatever i just had made my immune system Schwarzenegger strong.

:::this just in:::
the kid sitting beside me is listening to the West Side Story soundtrack suuuuper loud on his iPod and it's making me really happy. brings back good memories.

i have been learning...
always enjoy the Lord's presence first. focus on that, and peace will overflow into your relationships and activities.


some things i want to do...
i want to take some autumn pictures.
i want to be better at taking film photos.
i want to wake up early again instead of being in a sick stupor.
i want to work super hard on my school work.
maybe i should stop procrastinating.

don't judge!

some things i'm struggling with...
feeling like so many parts of my life are conflicting with each other in time and causing me to not give my best. i've been praying about this a lot, if there's something i should give up or put on hold.
either way i feel like i'm disappointing someone.
hm.
still praying about it.

okay, here i go! past the point of no return! or, as we say in astronomy, the "event horizon"
hahaha
