Hey Hey!

I have nothing profound to say today.

This week has not been the greatest one I've ever experienced, let me tell you that. A fraudulent website stole all of my money, and now I am 100% broke. Over Thanksgiving break I get to go to the bank and file a claim to try and get my money back.

Tuesday I called the bank to get everything sorted out between my shifts at work. Thank goodness for supportive and totally calming friends. I felt so much better after hearing my work friends tell me it would be ok. After work, I went to class. The guy that sits next to me in class was wearing an excessive amount of cologne which has led to me having a headache since the moment he walked into class straight through to this current moment. It probably wasn't helped by the fact that he was wearing an excessive amount again today. I guess I'm gonna have to talk to him about it.

After class on Tuesday, I went to bed at 5 and got up again at 7 for dinner. I had hoped my head would be feeling better, but it wasn't. Instead, I also felt really dizzy. I got some dinner, and then climbed back into my bed at 8. I did not get up until 7 yesterday morning.

Wednesday, I still felt totally awful. I felt super dizzy every time I sat or stood up. It was wretched. I went to my first class, but all I could do the whole time was think about how badly I wanted to crawl back in my bed. I could barely hold my head up. So, I skipped my last two classes and laid on the couch. It was much needed.

Today I still had a headache when I got up, but I went to work anyway. At this point, it's kind of jsut always there in the back of my mind, but I just try to ignore it.

Here's where I go off on a tangent about how much I love work this semester. It's weird to say, but I really have had a ridiculously good time. Yeah, it's food service, and yeah Messiah students think we are there to serve their every whim, but it's still a good time. The people I work with on Tuesdays and Thursdays are amazing. All of them. I had no idea it would be that much fun.

I honestly can't think of anything else to say. Here's to hoping the end of this week is better than the beginning!

Peace!

Sometimes, I

just get carried away.

I just don't know what I'm doing, really. I should trust that God knows where my life is headed. He knows the things I worry about, and He's going to help me through it. I know this, but my mind runs away with all the many possibilities sometimes.

That's when things start being weird. And that's also when I know to back off.

Which is now. I need to back off now.

I really have learned quite a lot about myself this semester.

Today was a really good day.

Actually, the last few Tuesdays and Thursdays have been pretty good. I had to give a presentation today, which was not fun, but other than that I've been having a really positive time.

I'd love to say it was because of an amazing guy or something, but that's not really it. I'm still boyfriendless, and it's still depressing when both of my roommates are having couple time. But maybe that is part of things being bettter. I have a new friend I've made this semester who recently I've been talking to quite a bit. This particular person has been extremely supportive of the things I want to do in my life, and things I enjoy. I will give credit to my amazing friends I've had for a long time too, though. They've been laughing at my interests a lot less. Of course, they were "laughing in love" and I know they are just messing around with me, but it's been nice being able to have a good conversation about things.

I feel a lot less stressed, and a lot more encouraged. That's what I've needed. Thinking about graduating has been really crazy, but I know it's all gonna work out. And one day, I might find a guy to share the future with. I hope.
