. . . . . . .

this semester I'm writing at LEAST 49 pages.

and this isn't fluff writing.

this is critical research writing.

meaning hours of searching through online databases and reading dozens of articles to find supporting statements for my thesis,

and then writing the paper.

and every second not spend writing will be spent reading. that is guaranteed.

when you add my church calling onto that,

plus my need to earn money doing photoshoots to possibly financially get through this semester...

well, truly, it was nice knowing you.



and while this all BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITES!!!

I have faith that it'll be okay.
because goodness knows I will be talking to Heavenly Father 24/7 this semester.

it's kind of freaky how much that relationship can help you get through anything.

and hey, at least I'll be so busy I won't have time to eat and then I'll lose some weight right?

kidding. :)

I apologize in advance for horribly whiny and depressing posts that are forthcoming this semester.

honestly I cannot see how I'm going to do it yet.
like, I love a challenge and I truly love hard work,
but this might even be too much for me.. I might seriously have to change my schedule.. although at this point I don't know how that's going to work.

prayers are appreciated.

(like really really really really really appreciated.)


I guess all there's left to say is...

goodbye life.

it was sweet while it lasted.
