Thoughts spilling out of the brain pan

Pretty much straight from break, I started my intership. It's been going well I think. Busy though. They like to give me many assorted tasks to do so I'm never really too bored. I'll chronicle my times as an intern at a later date.

Lately, I have been just feeling overwhelmed by many different emotions. Holiday time, as it has been for the last several years of my life, leaves me feeling very mixed emotions. I don't exactly have a close-knit family. And well... things happened this last year that I think has had a resounding effect on family relationships or... well... lack there of. I don't know. I feel pretty disconnected and unsure about everything.

Maybe I'm just tired. Maybe it's hormones. Maybe I need to start trusting and quit doubting. I have to admit... right now, it's become really hard for me to trust. I'm having a hard time gaining any perspective on the picture of things right now. I'm sure a year from now, this part of the picture will make more sense because my perspective will have shifted.

But from where I'm standing right now, it's really hard to see anything clearly.

I SURVIVED!

Fall semester of my senior year? Done.

After exorbitant amounts of caffeine (I'm pretty sure the energy drink count is around 20+), many late nights and one all-nighter, many long work shifts at Arby's, making new friends, hanging out with old friends (missing a few). After much laughter, tears, joys, ups, downs, and being spun about. After much homework, verse memorization, reading, quizzes... I have survived this semester.

One down. One to go.

More to come later as I start my Christmas break. :)
