A Proper New Year Blog

It's been some time since I've updated my blog!

Save the poem I wrote, here's to a new and better 2014!

Started my second quarter at uni about two weeks ago, and I'm already knee-deep in assignments... I even had my first midterm last Friday (2 weeks in, and already a midterm)! I upped my unit load from 12 units to 17 units this quarter, so I'm extremely full-time, and the pace is unbelievable, but the challenge is so satisfying.  Every time I study, afterwards, I feel a gradual decrease in the weight on my shoulders and it feels amazing.

One of the best things about being in the upper divs is that I love everything I'm studying, and time flows by fast.  Sure, I need to get over a little activation energy to really get in the study mode, but when I'm there, I'd rather not do anything else. 

An interesting challenge also came about recently.  I've been having some trouble with my right eye vision as of late, and I've been at the doctor's often for it.  It's been recovering nicely, but doc says I may have sustained some vision loss... as gloomy as it sounds I'm just happy it can still see, and, that, as I said, the recovery is going well.  Prayers for my vision would be much appreciated. 

Unexpected surprises seem to be the motif for the first couple of weeks of 2014.  While I'd rather not have to deal with some of them, each surprise little by little prompts me to not stay complacent, and helps me to remember and renew the commitment I made to stay faithful and trusting in whatever God has in store for me.
