It's not just the rain.
Upon hearing the news that classes were (again) suspended, I felt relieved but at the same time annoyed. No school meant no exams--Physics, Eco, and Filipino would have to wait. That I was happy about, since I can't exactly say I was confident on acing any of the three exams just yet.
But then again, I didn't like the fact that we'd have to STILL study this weekend, and that we'd be facing the tests next week, instead of getting it over with already. Plus, I've got these pile of stuff that needs to be accomplished, which unfortunately, has to take place in school. That's another reason why I felt annoyed with the suspension. So now I have to find a way to get all these things done before tuesday, which is another problem since I won't be going to school until then, meaning I won't be able to get things done, since as what I've said, I have to be in school in order for that to happen.
Did you get that? I don't think I did.
As if I'm not swamped with work as it is.
Sigh.
I never realized just how much work heading the Papyrus would take. I knew it would take an awful lot of dedication, but oh wow, nakaka stress, sobra. It would be fine, I guess, if that's the only responsibilty I'm holding. But no, I have a lot of things on my hand, and balancing all of it is slowly draining out my energy. How I wish I could live through one day without worrying about anything that needs to be done. There's a reason why I'm always exhausted (sleepy, actually. Haha) in class, you know.
BUT. I'm not complaining.
I shouldn't.
It is only through the grace of God that lets me live through each day. As I lock the night with a prayer, I hold on to His promises that speak of His faithfulness and love. There are times when I get so overwhelmed with all these responsibilities and tasks that I feel so jaded already. There have been days when I cried myself to sleep because of too much pressure combined with physical burnout. There are moments when I wouldn't even know where to start, and just feel like giving up. But His grace is sufficient, and I believe He has a purpose for all this. He knows what He's doing. :) I find comfort as I rest in His loving arms, knowing that I'll wake up to yet another beautiful morning. After all, the message of dawn is hope. :)
I am tired, stressed, and whatever synonyms you could think of for the word exhausted. But this is all part of the journey, however rocky it may start out to be. When God sends us out on stony paths, He provides strong shoes. :)
I put my trust in You. You who renews my strength.
Deluged with duties.
It's not just the rain.

But hey, I love the rain, don't I? :)
