Well, I just finished moving in, for the most part, into my new apartment here in good ole Husky Village. I realized all over again just how anal I can be about the whole germ thing, although not as bad as some people I've met. I guess that to me cleaning is in a sense a renewal- a renewal of my scholastic routine, or risen opportunities, or re-evaluated goals and dreams.
Anyways, I've had a much -needed quiet summer. I had a lot to pray, think and work over about myself, my actions, and the person I'm trying to be and in the end, I'm thankful for the plan that God has for me and the ways that He allows me to learn from the wondeful people He has surrounded me with as well as the experiences I have encountered thus far. One of the most important things I realized this summer is how much my family means to me, and how I need to take advantadge of the opportunity I have at this stage of my life to spend as much time as I can with them before I move on to law school and my future career endeavors.
I'm anxious to begin my junior year, although I think that I'm becoming more and more attracted to the next chapter in my life (hopefully): law school. In the meantine, I mean to soak in as much knowledge here as I can, it's time I return to prioritizing my studies first again, hence the downsizing of my extracurriculars. I am most excited about my life writing class- I am eager to improve my writing beyond that of literary analysis and criticism. I wish that like so many of my favorite writers I could manifest ideas and images for people through words in a manner as natural and effortless as pearls slipping off a string...
