… through the semester.
I told myself back in October that if I could JUST make it through this semester… and well, I did! There were definitely many challenges and obstacles throughout these past 4 months: boring lectures, Hebrew, Arabic, ministry, the swine flu, family issues, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Chanukah, relationship ups and downs, loosing a dear friend, and everything else the comes in between.
And although I keep telling myself the hard part is over, I know it’s really just begun…
What’s next?
Only writing three 20-30 page research papers for each topic by June. Urgh. But, for today, I’m taking a little Gaga advice and doing something I haven’t done in a LONG time….. AND JUST DANCE… gonna be ok…d-d-d-dance!

You dance, girl!! One down, how many to go? OK maybe better not count yet. “God’s grace is sufficient”
those research papers sound grueling but then it is a Master’s program! Good thing you are blessed with writing skills.

mom: hearing you say, “you dance, girl” is prob. something I would never have imagined coming out of your mouth. hhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

ROCK ON MO!
If you are looking for your lost Lady Gaga CD I know where it is

Now we’ve got to the point where its just “unspoken” yet “known” what you’re referring to! lol

I also find dancing very therapeutic. It’s usually just the sprinkler, but if I’m really stressed, I go straight to the tootsie roll.

Now that (the tootsie roll) I’ve got to see!!!
ps. I can totally already see you doing the sprinkler though. hhhhhhh.

Lovin’ the Gaga song :0). Hang in there! just tell yourself “If it wasn’t THIS then it would BE something else”. When you think about it, we always have something going on :0). Enjoy this pressure since you already know what it IS! Remember, pressure can be good-it’s stress that can get to you. Pressure can be used to create many things—like diamonds of course! But stress always pulls things apart! Praying for you. I cannot imagine writing ONE 30 page paper let alone MORE than one.

right now, I can’t imagine writing more than one too! (but I don’t really have a choice)
