Cool and Rainy

This week has been a little crazy. I spent nearly all of Monday night doing Wesley stuff, Tuesday I did yard work for elderly members of MUMC for Wesley, and yesterday was a typical Wednesday, which means it was insane and packed. So, now it's Thursday, tomorrow I have a paper and an oral final exam, and I'm not really ready for either. I have very little desire to prepare for the test and even less to write the paper, which is very bad since tomorrow is the due date for both.

There are two good things in this whole lack-of-motivation problem. One is that it is cold and rainy outside. If I had wanted to do my homework yesterday, it wouldn't have happened. Yesterday was gorgeous: temperatures in the low eighties, bright and sunny, but with a cool wind to keep people from sweating too much. I spent the free 20 minutes between classes and work and stuff laying on the quad taking in the sunshine and thanking God for spring. If I'd had more time, I just would have spent it sitting in the sunlight, not accomplishing anything.

The other good thing is that it gives me a reason to write here, in my Blog. Since I don't want to write my paper, I'm writing here. It's quite lovely, actually.

I'm getting really tired of being simultaneously insanely busy and in a holding pattern. I'm still waiting to hear about HDA and DA stuff for next fall, waiting for Wesley elections, waiting to go home and have a break, and waiting to go to ASP. At the same time, I'm cramped for time on writing this paper, doing a presentation, and taking an oral final, plus getting ready for finals week. On top of that, I need to do laundry, I have an interview to sit in on this afternoon, and I really just want to sleep. Oh, well, that's life, I guess.

I give up, I can't procrastinate anymore. I have to go actually WRITE my paper. How sad.
