Finally writing again.

So its most def been a while since I have written something. I have been so busy lately. I haven't had time to do much but study study and study. I have actually been some what stressed at times as of late, but everything has come together. The Lord has really been good to me and has been working everything out for my good despite my human tendency to worry worry and do more worrying. Let me just say that it does no good to worry. If you have the Lord on your side - there is nothing you need to worry about. He takes care of every need and adds on the desires of your heart. YEp indeedy! With that said, I am doing pretty well.

So the latest that has happened are midterms, up-coming finals, and a whole bunch of tests and papers in between. Every week I have either had a paper, test or presentation that has had to be done. It is actually quite insane. Before the week of spring break, I had worked my butt off to study for Business Government, complete a 10 pager for African American Studies, and complete another 10 pager for English. And you will be happy to know that I got nothing less than a B on all the work I did.

Business Government - I got a 93
African American studies paper- B+
AAS exam - A
English - B

Yep. Those were my midterm grades. I was pleased considering that I stopped truly caring while writing those two papers. hehe. Yeah..I was burnt out from the work and I was just managing to keep my head above water. So yey for the turnout. For my 4th class - Contemporary Black Politics - I had to do a 50 page powerpoint slide. The presentation had to cover the time period from slavery until present day. YEah...exactly...there is made stuff to cover! It was crazy. I worked on nothing but that for the entire week and turned it in last Friday at noon. He hasn't given us grades back for it yet unfortunatey. That entire week was one bad memory. My regular bedtime became 3:30 in the morning - it was terrible. Then I usually went to sleep for anywhere between 1-3 hours, then I would wake up again by 6:30am the latest to continue working. I could have made it easier for myself by plugging away at it more day by day..but the other days were consumed in the same way but with a different assignment. Now thinking about it I should have worked on the powerpoint from the very very begining of the semester...boo..aw well. Everything can't be perfect. But yeah...the times were crazy!! Like I up while my baby was sleeping over in Ghana, and I was still up while he was getting up in the morning. So while I was working on hmk - we would get to chat in the mornings. Besides the grades, some good came out of me missing out on sleep to say the least.

Anywho..I have gotten through the weeks..

Meanwhile many things have happened...I have gotten the Senior RA position - which is a step up-towards the job i ultimately want to land after college, I have been planning this program with Trina (the sister) and Bob (my boss). Essentially we are planning a community service event with high school students. So thats been stressful to say the least. It has required so much running around on my part..I can't even think about it too much else my head begins to hurt. I have been studying for GRE's and I have been looking at Graduate schools along with getting my application together. So yep..thats me..always on the grind - and preparing for the future. Plans are coming together..rapidly but surely..
