day 39 of 2012
i can’t even find time to do homework so i must wake up early in the 6am to do it. and i’ve been up since 7am….but there never seems to be enough time. but in order to do everything I want to do, i gotta sacrifice something and sleep it is.
i won’t be able to achieve everything i want, so my focus is on just doing the best i can. right, it is possible.

day 31 & 32
the past two days have kind of been crazy. i feel like that’s what i keep on writing in this 365 project. before, i said i felt like i was over-committing? now, I know that i’ve totally done that. right now, i’m not sure what i’m going to do with this because i don’t know what to get out of (mostly, it’s chi alpha stuff). it’s not that i don’t want...

housecleaning day! made the house all pretty & nice. had brunch with my roomie, she made some delish pancakes. i have a pic on my camera, but it’s so late now so i’ll post it tomorrow!
then hung out with a friend. church. subway. other friends on campus. library.
i don’t want to get backed up on work now, because then it’ll just start the vicious cycle, but i...

i’m a cheater. two days at once.
in the past 24 hours, i have …
fellowshipped. praised. prayed. listened. met new friends. slaved at the Greenberg Theatre. read wonderful books. learned Chinese. improved in Chinese. planned for next week’s TNW. grocery-shopped at two supermarkets in 1 hour. BOOM. heard former President Bill Clinton speak at my university on empathy, humanity,...

it’s no longer about expectations for what is to come. good-bye to that. i’m looking forward to this moment, right now.
carpe diem at its find. live life to its fullest.
go. do. be.
So never worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own — Matthew 6:24

instead of writing about my day, i’m going to focus on the one event that is really bogging me down. last semester, a professor told me I could intern with her research institute for academic credit. because she said I could do this, I didn’t go out of my way to find another spring internship, etc. When the semester started, I went to her office multiple times during the week to...

early mornings to get things done. after today, i realized … real life is SO HARD & i am sooo not ready for it. somehow, as a second semester junior, responsibility has piled up upon me like no other & i find myself coursing through life with no red lights. and it’s only the first week of school. homework hasn’t even started kicking my butt yet. however, it’s ONLY...

third day of school & i feel so tired already. there’s something wrong with this picture. so here’s a poem to sum my feelings up.
i wish days had more time
that the sun would never set
so friendship could last through the day … and more day
that night wouldn’t have to come
but in reality, it’s not about the length,
just the quality of time spent together.

eighteen days of the new year already!
i have to finish making this video for tomorrow’s Thursday Night Worship to start off the semester, so i’ll keep this blog post brief. i think filming people for this video was one of the best parts of today, namely because it showed how my friends were generous enough to donate their time and contribute. and how FUNNY they are. my video editing...

forgot to take a picture today. first day of school. IT WAS SO LONG. i’m not going to write everything that happened because honestly, it’s kinda tedious and probably a lot boring to ya’ll. but it was a cross between okay and scary.
if today was a representative of how busy i’m going to be all semester, i’m super scared. but also SUPER excited. there is a lot to...

first night alone in a new apartment
traveling to D.C. is always terrible and annoying because public transportation kills me. but i’m here and slowly unpacking and adding a bit of me to this apartment. it’s interesting to see what bits here are leftover from Sheena and how Liz & my personalities will mix, just by the things we own.
taking ownership wheee.
although moving the rest of my stuff from the townhouse...
