The Home Stretch

There's so much due for school in these next two weeks, it makes me feel like I might go insane.
Here are things I am trying to remind myself of in order to keep the sanity:

-God blessed me with the ability to write well. All these papers seem big and scary but He has equipped me to handle them.

-God has really clearly shown me that this is the path He has for me. I have never been more confident about the career path I am on. 
-This is two weeks of my whole life. That's not a long time. All the stress/anxiety/fill-in-the-blank-with-a-negative-emotion I'm feeling is temporary. 
-Everyone else is stressing out too. That keeps me from exploding all over everyone and telling them every thing I have to finish. Sometimes it's good to share but sometimes it's just plain annoying. 
-I have handled academic stress before and I am still here. It did not kill me. My head did not explode. I lived through it. 

There are plenty of things standing between me and winter break. There are lots of things I am looking forward to over that break too, so that's pretty neat. 

The biggest issue is jumping from "Here's what I have to do" to "Now I am getting that thing done". I told my friend Jess that it's like that bridge was Hulk smashed. 
Tonight I have a few more pages of reading about multiracial churches and then studying up on steroids and inhalants. 
I love college. Even though I complain, I love learning this stuff.
