Friday

When I blog, usually its the result of an inspiring thought or sudden conviction that I simply HAVE to write about. Funny how shallow and trivial that looks on paper. So right now, I'm going to just write about nothing of great consequence.

I woke up this morning at approximately 6am, rolled over to look at the time and moaned inwardly at the reality that I had to start waking up. My body was screaming "stay in bed--you need the sleep!" But my chemistry professor won that battle and I made myself crawl down from my lofted haven, and blindly got myself dressed and ready for the day. I have a new roommate! It's really not that exciting, but there's something comforting about knowing someone lives with me.

The long awaited weekend is here. Monday seems forever ago. I would say that an overall highlight of the week was deciding to start a band with four of my friends. We came to the conclusion on Wednesday, and will hopefully have our first practice some night next week. More on this to come... But I think the past few days have been so wonderful because of all the little moments of hanging out with fun people. The entire last six months have been overwhelmingly filled with good things. I know that God is good all the time, even when life seems to constantly disappoint, but I have genuinely been blown away by how wonderful my time at Appalachian has been. Life comes in seasons, I think, and currently I'm living in Spring. :) Granted, my last blog entry maybe doesn't sound as convincing. My life. (sigh)... I'm afraid the older I get and the more life I live, the less I know and the more I realize how bad off I actually am. Does this mean that blessings are seen most clearly when I'm in the depths?
