| | ok so this week has been super busy and it's only half over. i actually have more time to study because of dates getting pushed back. I'm just concerned with a paper i have to do for one class and a project to do in another. i tend to get overwhelmed by looking at all the stuff i have to get done and when they're do but i remembered something out of a book i'm reading. the book is called Sabbath and there's a passage in it about how we are so focused with getting to the future that we don't realize that we miss the present. When the future we're looking forward to comes, we miss it because we never stop looking towards the future, we ignore the present. so instead of overwhelming myself with the future the past two days, i've thought, ok, what do i have to do now, today at this moment and all at once, I feel much lighter because I don't have that much to do today or if i do, i can manage my time and give the focus required for each task. the Sabbath book is amazing because it's said things that i identify with myself that i never really thought about before and the whole future thing, i didn't realize i do that until i read it. it's amazing. and speaking of amazing, i worked at the Casting Crowns concert last night. i had heard maybe one song of theirs that was good but it wasn't enough for me to make an opinion about them but now i have 5 songs of theirs that are awesome. one of their songs, Slow Fade, is crazy. as he was singing it, i could relate it to my life which i know isn't all that good but i think everyone can relate to it in one way or another. it was a life changing concert even though that probably sounds lame because it was a concert but it was so good. i also made contacts with ppl for possible jobs so that was exciting. anyway, i think i'm just gonna read for the rest of today and get that done for friday but i actually like the book we're reading. it's Remains of the Day, which i had heard of but you know how u hear about books but never read them or know anything about them. well, it was assigned so i'm reading it and i like it a lot. i love the names they use in it like "Farraday" and "Darlington Hall" Kazuo Ishiguro wrote it and i recommend it. ok i'm gonna finish watching spongebob for my sanity.
