Slogging Through, but I'm Still Moving

The past couple of weeks I feel as though I've been slogging through school like you would slog through mud knee deep. I know that is quite the picture. On the 22 I was sick in bed all day after throwing up most of the night. I think that I ate something bad. That was after I had to work a birthday party all by myself. It wasn't bad, but it was an adventure. So needless to say I didn't feel very well on Monday, some of my muscles were very sore. I was very glad that last week was a short week. Wednesday I got to home for thanksgiving which was totally awesome!!! I got to go to a totally AWESOME concert on Sunday. The Letter Black opened and they were followed by Decyfer Down, Hawk Nelson and finally SKILLET!!! I was very glad that one of my friends from school wanted to go so we went together. It was a fun day all around. I intend to post pictures but right now I'm a work and my pictures are on my laptop at my apartment. So I'll have to get on that later. Than on Monday I started getting a cold, I'm doing my best to fight it. My immune system is probably down from all the stress of finals coming up here and a few other things. Really I think finals will go fine. I already submitted my final paper for my psych class and from my grade online I got an A. It's really an easy class, but it's not a class that I have enjoyed very much. Due to it's sometimes "graphic" content. Lots of time was spent discussing things I really didn't want to learn about. It did give me a greater appreciation for the way my parents lovingly raised me. I have to say that my eyes have been opened even more this year than last year and if I didn't fight to keep my hope I could lose it in the blink of an eye. There's people having affairs, girls getting pregnant and than ending it. People partying because it's the only way to cope and so much more. And people spend time wondering why the world is in the state it's in. Did you know that colleges are seriously thinking about adding a mental health fee to college tuition? College faculties are finding that they don't have the resources to handle the depression and all the mental health problems that students are having. Suicide rates among college students have climbed dramatically.

I have to say that I am eagerly looking forward to being done with school in May, because I am so tired of all the "stuff" that goes on, especially here in HCC. Even though I don't know what I'm going to do when I'm done here. I still don't feel like I've gotten any clear direction from the Lord on the matter. I'm just doing my best to walk it out day by day. I am thankful for the fact that I know my parents are standing behind me a hundred percent and that I can move home in May if I want/need to. I really don't want to drive though so much, like I did last summer. I really want to have a life outside of my car. So if I live at my parents more than likely I will have to drive a good distance to be able to work and not working is not an option unless that's what the Lord says, although I don't think that "don't work" is something He would tell me.

Anyways back to the present... School is winding up thankfully, I'm most definitely ready for a break. For a good part of Christmas break though I plan to stay in my apartment in order to work and save some money which I hope is possible. The saving money part is what I hope is possible, I know that I can work. I'm pretty much done with Christmas shopping, Yay! There's still a couple people I need to buy for. I'm pretty excited because I was able to get some really cool stuff this year for presents. Well I can't think of anything else to say for the moment so I think I will say adios.
