almost there...
spent most of today moving stuff, getting it organized, etc., etc. too much fun. just got done putting together my little brother's new bed frame. other than that? i want to try and get my room organized the rest of the way tonight, so i don't have to worry about it tomorrow, ya know? nice to have it mostly done, though. on another note, i need to get some black slacks to go with my jacket, so that i will have a 'suit' for the wedding that i am ushering for this coming weekend. more fun. on a more exciting (to me anyway) note, its only 2 more days until i get to talk to my best friend! yes, i'm excited. :) dang, i miss her...! other than that, i need to get back to my memorizing so that i don't fail that class, whoch not be a smart idea, ya know? oh, and i've applied for two new jobs in the last couple days, so it will be interesting to see if God decides to bring about anything from those or not. who knows? it could happen. all i know is that it seems like God is pulling in me in a new direction (or maybe one i started in, and have now just come full circle?), and i know that i don't want to be a drywaller the rest of my life, that's for sure! and on that note, i say adios!

taking deep breaths...
so, i kinda took the night of studying, and moved a bunch of stuff to my parent's place, which is where i will be staying from tonight on... so? needed to take a brain break, ya know? so, that is what i did. i needed to get this stuff done, so? its not like i was just sitting around doing nothing, although sometimes that is a good thing too... :P so, other than that? gonna go to bed soon, sleep in a bit, and then finish moving tomorrow, and get that all taken care of. g'night all!

slow going...
well, it is going, if ever so slowly at points, but it is going. if i didn't know any better, i'd almost say it feels sometimes like i have ADD! i have the hardest time keeping my attention to the task at hand, but? with God's help, i will persevere. other than that? i'm working tomorrow, and then moving on saturday... going to be a busy weekend. my stress level has gone done considerably, so that is def. something to be thankful for! i am so glad that not only do i have amazing friends, but i have an amazing Saviour in Jesus, who loves me and is a help to me in every way, hallelujah! for this i am, literally, eternally thankful.

g'morning...
so, i am kinda on call today, since it is pretty slow. i hope that i don't get called in. leave me more time to work on my memorizing, ya know? speaking of... i am almost done with chapter 2. a few more minutes, and i should pretty much have it. other than that? memorizing and packing are all that is on the agenda for today, unless i have to go to work, but? i am sure i will be on here later.

argh...
so, yeah. i am just a wee bit frustrated at the moment. i am not getting nearly enough studying done right now, and at this rate, i might just fail. it is mostly my own fault, i am a huge procrastinator sometimes, and this is no exception. one of those things that i rather dislike about myself. at school it wasn't so bad, the only responsibilities i had were school, so? but throw into the mix a full time job, and then having to be out of the appt. by sunday night, and i am looking for nothing short of a miracle. i am stressed, there is no doubt about that, and i am starting to crack. i don't expect anyone to actually read all of this, i just needed to vent. i know God is faithful, and that he is here for me, but it doesn't help matters when i goof off too much, and when i am SO unmotivated about this whole thing, and i just want to throw my hands up in the air and say forget it! its tempting, really. but? i know myself, and i know i can't do that. even if i really wanted to, there is no way i could let myself give up. so? back to the battle... may God have grace on me and my mind!

me again...
this what happens when i am home most of the day. i am on here way too much, b/c it is an easy distraction. but? one chapter down, only 5 more to go... oy. going to be a long week, in least in that respect. as slow as it is going, i might have to take this rest of the week off to get this done! and i'm not joking... so? hopefully not, but we'll see. my brain can only handle so much, it seems... and it doesn't seem to be nearly as much as it used to be!
on another note, i miss talking to my best friend. i don't get to talk to her until monday, and it's only been a couple days, well, 3 i guess, since i've talked to her. but? i am much looking forward to talking to her! :)
anyhow... that's all for the morning update. ttyl.

losing it...
i think my brain is getting old. i used to be able to memorize verses without too much trouble, but this ephesians thing is killing me. its like my brain just doesn't want to work in that manner any more. i sure wish it would. with all the other stuff that happens to be going on this week, like moving, my brain is in high gear already. i just wish my brain would do what i tell it to! lol... oh, well. i shouldn't have put it off so long, and i should quit goofing around, but doing stuff like posting to my blog...

tonight...
so? talked to the landlady, and as long as we are out by the end of the weekend, we don't owe anything else! yeah! that was really cool. so, everything seems to just be falling into place. the Lord seems to just be blessing us! i can't complaina bout that! it is going to be a busy week, trying to move and finish my school work and all, but? by God's grace it will all get done. plus, my car insurance went down about 20 bucks a month! i certainly can't complain about that! but? life moves on...

home again, home again...
so, it looks like i will be moving back in with my parents for a bit. couple months or so. my roommate is moving out, and i don't feel like trying to find another. also, my parents are going to be quite gracious and let me stay for free, provided i try and get my degree done this semeseter. so? that is cool... other than that? nothing too exciting. just got home from work, time for dinner!
