It’s never too late to be who you wanted to be.

Read at your own RISK...

Warning: I am about to vent. And complain. A bit. So, you may want to stop here. It could get pretty tiring....I know how it feels to listen to negative all the time. Annoying. So, I promise I'll end it with a cherry on top. If you can make it through.

Here goes.

This week month...stinks.
Yep, no sugar-coating or fake smiles about it.
It just plain sucks (pardon me)
But really....School is so dang hard.
Why does it have to be so hard? (I know, I know so I can "learn from it and gain a greater knowledge of life experiences." But I get enough of that- without even touching foot in the academic section)

Oh, and guess what? I leave for a Thailand in 3 1/2 weeks.
Oh yeah- I'm going to Thailand. Did I mention that? For 7 weeks.
Oh yeah, and I leave during finals week. Did I mention that?
Oh yeah, and I have a 13 page paper, 10 page paper, Research paper, and 73 slide powerpoint due in the next 2 weeks. Did I mention that?
Yeah I know. Makes me wanna throw up too.

P.s. I just read 125 pages. Yuck.

Oh and also,

My brain is imploding.

Did I mention that?

But seriously....it feels like it.

It's that helpless-hopeless feeling. Like when you are so hungry you scarf down your entire meal in seconds and then eat 2 desserts and anything else within reach because you were that hungry...(breathe) and then it hits you. Like a brick to the face. And there's nothing you can do. You just plain ate too much. And it freakin hurts.

Yep, that's what's happening. But in my head.

I go to sleep at night and my brain doesn't turn off. I dream of to-do lists and due dates.
That's disgusting.
Really.
Not to mention I'm so sick of string cheese and Sweet N' Salty bars. (Not quite sick of cereal yet- that'll probably be next week- serious, have you tried these? They are SO good)
But when you spend day after day in the library...what other snack food is there?

So that's that. I've officially complained. I'm not depressed. Actually, the tone of this post is quite matter-of-fact.

I. Am. Stressed. And overwhelmed. 

But I'm doing it. Somehow. The clock is still ticking and my life is still going. I'm just unbelievably busy. And not exactly loving it. And that's what's on my mind this Tuesday afternoon.

Oh and another thing,

Why is it that every spring everyone falls in love?
Just curious.

 Oh and something else. I am missing this guy today....


 
 

         

            

            

           

          

          

        




... Just cause. 

Oh and, as promised, for the cherry on top
Just in case you are having a day, week, or month like mine...
Check these out. They might actually get you through your day.. because they are getting me through mine.


 

Okay. That's all. I promise.

Happy Tuesday :)

Rachel, you need a weekend here! You can lounge in the sun, leave your textbooks back home, and I'll cook for you all day long. No string cheese or sweet/salty bars included! Come!

Heather and Brad said...

Rach...you are amazing with everything you are doing. It will all be worth it. One thing at a time. Love you! p.s. the movies made us laugh way too hard.

Becky H. said...

Rachie, you really rock. I am so very proud of you and all you are doing and are. Not to mention you are so funny!! Hang in there, things will go away, get better, slow down, come together, work out, etc. get the idea?

You are so wise and really having some compact learning here - like a whole bunch in a short time, phew. I miss you so much, but I'm so excited for all that lies ahead for you- ok, maybe not the plane ride and the food? Anyway, I will always be your greatest fan. Thanks for the phone calls, I love hearing from you. Always and forever. Love you.
