phillippians 2:9-11

Well I am sorry for my lack of efficiency of blogging. It has been a crazy couple of days, that's for sure. Let's just say, I need a break. No one ever tells you have hard college is! Not just with school, but trying to balance school, friends, family, sorority, Jesus time, my-time, work out time, other meetings, and other random commitments that you ask yourself why you joined them... I am just sometimes overloaded. However, I am no more overloaded than the person sitting next to me. We all have so many responsibilities and I cannot think I am the only one struggling with it. We all are.
Does anyone ever feel not good enough? Like you try and try and try and it gets you no where? That is how i feel about my school work. Wow, it is a struggle for me and always has been. I desire so much to be successful in school and make the grades i want to make, but i find myself always checking blackboard with a huge pit in my stomach. all the time. not just sometimes. School and tests terrify me. I wish there was a way to get over it. I study, i really do. But sometimes, the results just dont show.
I am so thankful for my sweet, sweet friends who support me, and love me, no matter what i do. They help me with my school when im struggling.. or help me come up with themes for rush at 12 at night. Thank you, sweet friends. I thank God i have you in my life.
More on the concepts on friends, my best friend came to visit me for 6 days this week. And it was probably one of the best weeks ever. Just being with him makes me happy. We don't have to do anything to have fun; we will find some weird way to have fun. And that we did. Like going to the park on sunday afternoons and throwing the football, going to lunch, laughing about bizarre things, having thumb wars, talking about life stuff, talking about nothing stuff. I thank God for putting him in my life; who knows where i would be without him.
Well, we leave for Greenville tomorrow, so i wont be blogging too much. I just can't wait to get away from school and not worry about it and lay out on the beach with 16 (or 17?) of my best friends :)

Happy rainy thursday to all!

    Thank you for your sweet words of encouragement. I cannot tell you how much it means to me that you are praying for me and my children.

    I see you read Darby Stickler's blog too! Isn't she great? And her sister as well. I have them both on my list. I just stalk...never comment. They are both way too cool for me to have anything to add to the conversation!

    Again, thank you for commenting...it really meant a lot to me to hear from you.
    Hope you have a great week.
    Dana
