Feeling Overwhelmed...

Hi all (whoever all might be...I'm not entirely sure anyone actually reads this...),

My final semester as an undergrad only started a week ago yesterday and I'm already overwhelmed. There seems to be so much to do. What with all the reading that I have and the actual assignments that come with that reading, and going to class, not to mention taking care of myself (eating well and working out) and spending time with the Lord, I honestly don't know what to do at this moment. I know I should be reading, but to be honest I am exhausted. The thing that really gets me is that I am actually enjoying all the classes I'm in and I can't imagine picking one not to take (not to mention the fact that I need all of them to graduate). The subjects of the courses I'm taking are truly interesting to me and are things that I want to learn more about. I think that might be part of the problem...I want to know everything there is to know about geography but now that I'm in all these classes, it seems kind of overwhelming and over my head. I think it all comes down to the fact that this semester will truly test my ability to prioritize and use my time wisely and efficiently. There need to be things that take precedent over other things, and I just need to learn how to do that more effectively. (Also, part of my problem is that when I feel like things are getting to be too much, I just stop and don't do anything at all, which is not good, at all)

As I continue to go through this term, I am praying that God will give me energy and focus and that He will help me to get myself organized and into something that resembles a routine. Because one thing I've realized is that I have a hard time sticking to routines...I really want to be consistent, and this semester will be the ultimate challenge for me in that respect. But as I write this, I feel even more determined to follow through and do my absolute best in all the tasks that face me between now and December 12th.

If you are reading this...I could use all the prayer I can get...this is not something I will be able to do on my own, that is something I am absolutely sure of.

Now it's time to sign off and get back to my reading (its always the reading...haha)

Bye for now!
