I survived three week of school so far. I have a lot of work to do; it's all piling up, waiting for my procrastination to settle into a drive steered by anxiety.
I am engaged to my Daniel. It's still surreal, something you think about as a life stage for the bulk of your childhood and adolescence, but once it's real, it's somehow normal, somehow not so dramatic. I love him and I'm thankful for the settled, peaceful feeling I have when I think about our engagement and our future life, side by side.
I have so much to be thankful for. And I'm glad God is helping me see that. Great friendships, relationships, interactions with classmates and teachers. Interesting subject matter. Fellowship opportunities, intellectual opportunities. Health, financial stability, a beautiful campus. And Fall is coming soon. Oh, how I long for Fall. It's my favorite time of year. More than any other season, it connects me to this season in the past years of my life, it fills me with this inexplicable joy, as if I'm awaiting something glorious.
