i know im not Catholic, but...
this is still very encouraging:
St. Theresa's Prayer:
May today there be peace within. May you trust God that you are exactly
where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities
that are born of faith. May you use those gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content knowing
you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow
your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for
each and every one of you.
i was deleting old emails and found one that was a forward with this in it... and had to post it...
i had a very relaxing afternoon... had a nice two hour nap... cause i studied til 330AM and had to get up at 730AM... me and Nick went to the library from 9-12, then when they kicked us out we went to his place and he studied for the qualifier (a test Chemical Engineering grad students have to take to try to get their PHD... this is just what they take to be elligible to attempt to get a PHD... def why im gonna be happy with an undergrad degree) and i worked on engineering stats and statics homework... it took FOREVER.... and for the first time ever i had a problem that i couldnt use my calculator to figure out... for those of you who know me... you know i have a MONSTER of a calculator.. thats right i have the envied TI-92 Plus... and i put in an integral from part of my engineering stats homework cause i didnt wanna have to work it all out... and the answer it gave me was said integral.... my calculator (which is the equivalent of a computer basically,lol) couldnt even do my homework... how the heck am i supposed to be able to do that crap...geesh... it was crazy frustrating... thats for sure...
now that ive had a nap and can actually function time to get on with my day..... tonight i am doing the monthly dinner with my cousins... and then am going to work on fluids homework with bradon, and plan our schedules so we can be in the same classes in the fall... scheduling is tom for me.. greg schedules today so im hoping to find out when and what he is taking so we can all get in the same sections and all again... we will all be in the same PETE's cause they only have one section... but still... and i heard that at the SPE (society of petroleum engineers) meeting they voted on classes and such and that our lab may have saturday meetings... two for 8 hours each... im ticked i missed it last night... but i already had enough work to keep me up half the night..i had no time to go... tara told me that most of the people voted against it but that it still might happen... im really bummed about that cause that lab sounded like it was gonna be fun... we are going to take field trips and all sorts of stuff... but this sat business, unless they are the field trips... yea it isnt cool..... im really excited about my new major though, esp now that im in the classes.. and im starting off with a 4.0 in my major, and was hoping to swing a 4.0 for the semester but its looking like im gonna have a B or two in there as well... stephen and john are taking dynamics over the summer with me so we will at least get that class out of the way in 2 months... homework every night doesnt sound fun... but gettin it done in half the time is so appealing i cant pass it up!
oh and i started my "food log" for the nutritionist yesterday... its kind of a pain having to write down everything i eat... in ounces and all particular...but its gonna help her give me a better assesment...i wanna try to do it for a week.. she said 3 days is all i need.. but the more days the better i figure...
and belle is like all better... which is good... shes running around and happy and she played with her dog friend that lives in the next building a little bit this afternoon too... so thats good :)
