Clarity

So Tuesdays are definitely the absolute worst days of the week. And it's only on account of I have classes from 9:30am until 6:45pm...including Physics, Biochemistry, Organic, and Physics Lab. Could there be a more hectic combo? I would argue not. Well anyways there no use in wasting energy complaining about it when I'm the one who arranged the schedule, I sacrificed the hectic mess of a Tuesday for NO CLASSES on either Fridays OR Mondays (yay!), and the worst of the week is now behind me! Today was actually pretty productive though, if I might add. In physics I learned a decent amount of the material he was going over and flew threw the online homework (Mastering Physics). In Biochemistry, my poor poor instructor, Dr. Bodine informed us that he was cancelling class this Thursday and moving the exam to NEXT Thursday because his best friend died. He has to give his eulogy on Thursday during our class and was crying during breaks today. I just feel so awful for this man and pray that the Lord lays his hand on his heart very soon so that the healing process can occur quite rapidly. Losing someone is never a pleasurable experience, but it's a part of life.
Organic went over well as it always does--for some reason that class and I just click. I understand everything Dr. Doerr talks about and we have an exam this Thursday night that I'm not worried about at all. Physics lab...well I just don't want to talk about that so I can continue my splendid mood. :]

I just have a bunch of random thoughts all jumbled up into my head including how much I miss my family, puppies, and Scott...they truly are my WORLD and without them I couldn't do anything. They are like the fuel for my engine always providing me with comforting words that keep me going. I can't formulate words into sentences to describe the love for them and how much I miss them ALL the time while I'm up here. Some couples are so blessed to have their loved one here at school with them, but I think Scott and I are growing to be such a strong couple; being able to not only last but grow closer to each other though we are 250 miles apart. I want to marry him so bad and we eventually will, but neither one of us is or will be prepared to until after we finish school entirely...which will be at least another 5 years. It kind of stinks in a way that we have to wait that long, but I'm excited to see what the future will hold for the two of us...where we'll live, what we'll be, etc. I'm just glad I have someone's hand to hold throughout the whole thing and experience both the ups and downs with!
Another thing that's been on my heart is where I'm going to live next year here at school. The original plan was to live with my best friend Nancy in either an apartment off campus or on campus; it didn't matter. But she was under the impression that I was graduating early and signed on with a current roommate that was randomly matched to live with us. I thought about it and cried a lot thinking I'd have to spend my entire senior year with three random roommates--which would STINK!! My other roommate, Elizabeth whom I've known for a year and a half now was debating between living at home and buying a car to commute to campus or living off campus with me. We went and looked at apartments last week and found one that we really liked only to find out that the first month has to come out of pocket...$337.00 including utilities though and fully furnished. (you can check it out at http://www.myownapartment.com/berkeleyplace/). Because of this circumstance, Elizabeth could not live with me and is now arranging to live at home and buy a car. Back to square one I am. Lease signing day is tomorrow and I have a huge decision to make tonight. I either have to sign on to live at Berkeley Place and get three random roommates, live on campus and get three random roommates, or pray that the Lord comes through TONIGHT with someone for me to live with. Please pray!!! Whatever he wants me to do, I'll ultimately do it.
Anyways, I'm going to make some dinner...probably bacon wrapped chicken filets, sweet potato casserole, and green beans? That's a possibility but we'll see.
--Until we meet again!
