kay. i'm lacking perseverance. i feel the weight of the work i have yet to do before this term ends (in 1.5 weeks.....!!!!), but i am too afraid of it to get near it. can't tell you how much wonderful hanging-out i've been doing these past days, totally loving the time spent there, but with a double motivation - 1: seeing my dear friends, old and new; 2: avoiding the very daunting task of finishing what i've begun. rather ignoring it in hopes it will go away.
...it is not working.
here is a list of things i am jumping-out-of-my-skin-excited to do when spring term bites the dust:
1. house-sit (try out independence for 2.5 weeks)
- sit in a quiet house alone
- have ample space to think
- try out cooking for myself
- have company over like a grown-up
2. finish jane eyre
3. lie on the floor with my eyes closed and listen to my new bon iver album
4. go running. frequently.
5. watch my x men movies i've received in the mail
6. deep-clean my bedroom
7. intentionally and intensively plan my going-ahead plans
8. journal extensively
9. go on coffee dates and walks with the Lord
10. wake up early because i want to, not because i have to
but in the meantime, i resolve to search out the beauty in each day and not just wish them away. "this too shall pass" and all that.
