It is Tuesday, right??

I am trying to write every day on my blog. I am finding it to be incredibly therapeutic to have some place to get my thoughts together and keep in touch with everyone. School is getting hard, not the course work, just the ability to find motivation. Everyone at school is getting pretty tired. The jokes are become more morbid; such as:

1 how are you

2 eghhhh

1 yea, we all want to jump off the [8 story building] too

and:

"After that test, I just want to go home and cry"

"Hey! How great would it be for one of us broke down in the middle of the test and started sobbing!! That would be awesome!"

You can't see it, but this makes me laugh. We all feel the same way, and we're all tired but we at least have each other. It pretty funny being this tired. It definitely brings you closer together with your other classmates. This block is bordering on torture and we are all in it together. Everyone shares their struggles that they are going through outside of school. Some seems completely unbearable to me. One girl got married in January, spent 3 days with her new husband only to ship him off for his 2nd tour of Afghanistan. Her husband also just moved to a new part of the base where he no longer has skype (or any private internet) and they don't talk but 5 minutes a day on the phone (while he sits in a public area). I don't know how she does it, she's just amazing. She also is doing all this after having lost her faith in God's goodness. She could use your prayers.

Well, I guess that's about all for today. Not much more to say. Gotta go learn my parasites for today. But don't worry about me after reading this. It's incredible the mood you get into after going through this. It's like taking a 24 hour car ride or staying up all night to do something you have to do. You know it'll end, but you're going to go a little nutty in the process. (Colora--do) You just hope there is no permanent damage! Hahaha. (yea... i might stay this way). And at the end, you are rewarded with know that you have gotten through the worse block of these two years and survived!

Looking forward to the light at the end of the tunnel! Really hoping it's not a train! :)

Love you all and thank you for the prayers.
