I am always finding headphones attached to iPods that are still playing in this house. Every time I think I'm hearing a voice, it's because I usually am, and so I find it and turn it off. It is always Mark Driscoll, is the funny thing.

This past week I have been super-discouraged about school and my 'real job'. At first it was so glamorous but I am starting to realize that going to classes and having to drive to work every day afterwards isn't easy. The workload I have been given this semester is already huge. I don't remember Spanish well, my English professors are assigning hundreds of pages a night, and we are really short-staffed at work because people keep quitting, transferring, or getting pregnant. I had a really encouraging talk with a good friend last night, that put things in a bit better of a perspective though. School is just a season, but to not be there right now would be foolish for me. I only have a few months of this and it will be summer. God isn't giving me more than I can handle but this is definitely a time of refinement and learning how to balance my time. Plus, I have Jesus to look to. What is ANY of this compared to what he had to go through for me?

My headaches are coming back though, due to stress. Good thing it is halfway to the weekend. I can make it through these next few weeks.
