I got a B on both of the exams I thought so assuredly that I had A's on. There's no earthly reason I should be getting anything but straight A's this semester, and it really, really makes me so angry at myself that I was completely capable of doing better and i just plain didn't. Well, that's not going to happen again ( Read more... )

Every time I go to church the longer the message in the sermon stays with me; meaning I was still contemplating what the pastor said this morning and probably still will later today ( Read more... )

So, I saw my advisor the other day and he basically told me that I'm not bad at math and that I could really become whatever what I wanted to. So my Art History major is out the window, and I have a plethera of careers to choose from, I hardly know where to start! I'm excited, though. I was thinking of journalism or maybe biology something, but I ( Read more... )

1. I feel like I've said that relationships confuse me about a thousand times now, but it's still true. All I have to say is boys are so dumb. That's right, if you're a boy, you're dumb in general. I'm not saying you're stupid or unintelligent, just that boys are so clueless about some things and you don't even know it until someone points it out ( Read more... )

The sermon at church yesterday was all about trusting in God. At the beginning, they showed a clip from Indiana Jones where he's trying to go through this cave and he's reciting some verse from the bible and finally he comes to this bottomless chasm that there's no way he's going to be able to clear, but he jumps anyway and lands on some invisible ( Read more... )

Stephanie said something to me last night that really made me step back and reassert who I am as a person. She said "Sarah Badders, you care too much about other people." I told her that it was in my nature to care about other people, but she said "No, I mean you care too much. You let everyone else's problems become your own and it's bringing you ( Read more... )

Not ten minutes ago I was walking to the library and I was looking at the building and for some reason thought to myself that this is the library at my university. I'ts sort of a strange thing to say to oneself, but it made me realize that I'm in college, I'm actually here, taking classes, using their library, sitting on their benches, eating in ( Read more... )

Well, I can't really pinpoint how I feel anymore as it changes about 20 times during the day. My mood seems to have become dependent on how a certain very special person's day is going. The funny thing is, just two days ago I was watching that show called "my fair brady" where the woman that played the mom on the brady bunch gives relationship ( Read more... )

I'm just starting to learn how hard these things they call relationships are. I've never had to worry about it before, and I never tought I would worry about it, I just don't worry myself over things like this. Everybody has told me stories about how they have really liked someone before, even been in love with someone and how much it had hurt them ( Read more... )

I'm beginning to understand what all the adults meant when they said that college is tough because you have so much freedom. I remember thinking that I'd really have to watch out for that; I planned my classes carefully, I still only work on the weekends, and my course load is pretty light. I only have general classes that are almost self ( Read more... )
