What a day yesterday… Very good history class (got some grading done!) and then off to lunch. Since my dad has jury duty this week, we ate together out front of the Archives; such a great time! Then a tour with some adorable and sweet 4th graders; I got two hugs afterwords! I then attempted to unlock an office door…but couldn’t do it. So I waited for another student worker and somehow it worked for him. Spent 1/2 an hour retyping inventory lists… and left for school. Time to take that Cultural Anthropology test, right? Get there. Study with friends. Wait. Talk. Study some more. We remember that we’re supposed to have a proctor to give us the test…and now its been a 1/2 hour and no one is here…! When I’m finally home, my user (not my log in screen and guest account) shows a black screen… So I spend 45 minutes backing up all my files through my guest account…only to find that after trying to log back into my account, everything is normal. Then I get an email from the Cashier’s office saying I owe $200 that I know was charged — or should have been charged — to scholarship.
And I’ve still got that paper to work on…
But! I’ve also got a review Wednesday for a Intro. to Philosophy test that I have to take Thursday night… A writing intensive class…yea…you know what that means. Tons of answers to fill out before hand. Tons. (And I’ve got this little article I need to write for the Honors newsletter looming over my head…) So I stay up till about 11:15 preparing for my test…
Then I remember I need a shower! Oh yes.
Is it clique to remember “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
I don’t think so. I’m getting frustrated because I really want to give my all to this paper — without wearing myself out! But every time I worry and doubt I’m reminded of how much I really do need help. From friends who listen to me rant, from siblings who every once and a while understand I need some silence, and from parents who are so loving…but mostly from a Lord and Savior who provides just what I need.
Though this paper (and everything else!) is kind of freaking me out, the Lord will provide.
