It's finals time!

Which means I probably should be working on something that's, you know, due in the next week or so, but I've got about ten minutes before I have to ready myself for Bible study. So there's clearly no time to do anything productive, right? I thought so.
The fact that it is finally finals week is both good and bad. Good, because it means that the end of the semester is actually, blessedly HERE, and I'm that much closer to having a good solid month of no. work. to. do. at. all. Plus, it means that I'll get about two weeks in the ATL for Christmas/New Year's. Bad, because it means there's a ton of work sitting between me and said break.
And so, because I'm particularly good at listings, here's one that should probably interest absolutely none of you.
Things left to do in the next week and a half:

Write 4.5 book reviews for ONE weekend workshop class.
Write 1 additional paper for same said class. (Did you catch that? SIX papers for one weekend's worth of class....ridiculous!)
Read several hundred pages in about 5 different books.
Take 1st online final.
Take 2nd online final.
Complete a take-home final.
Study (until it kills me) for my Greek final.
Take that Greek final (and ACE it....ah, the goals)
Finish the last unit for my online class.
3-4 events on campus/for the office.
A Christmas Concert at FBNO (Pianos! with Ellis Marsalis! for $10!)
Hopefully be able to go to at least a few of the lovely Christmas events in NOLA.

Yep. There you have it. I think I might have to start injecting caffeine straight into my blood vessels to make it actually work in order to get all this stuff done.

Soon, I promise to post things of significance. Hopefully. :)

In the meantime, check out these lovely ladies!
Gini is doing giveaways for Christmas (and she's one of the most talented people I know!)

Becca and her family constantly inspire me. And they're looking for mentors for their ministry, if you're in the ATL!

happy new year! and....a quarter of a century

happy new year, my friends! i hope you celebrated in a fun way and were with people you love :) i was able to see some friends i never get to see new year's eve...and then was back at my parents' house by around 10:15...and was in bed by 11:30.... i did not stay awake to welcome in 2010, but i'm ok with that :) in other news, i'll be a quarter of a century old in a week. 25... i'm not one to freak out about my age (at least not yet) but 25 is a good year, i think. and in honor of my turning 25, i've decided to make lists of 25. because it'll be fun, and who doesn't love a good list? and because i spent yesterday traveling, the first list is a travel list, but is by no means complete or comprehensive....there's no way i could make a full list of everywhere i've been or would like to go.... so, enjoy!! 25 places i've traveled or would like to travel (red = where i've been, blue = where i'd like to go) 1. new orleans,...

Over the Cliff

In the middle of Prince Caspian, there's a moment. Lucy has seen Aslan, but no one else has, and Aslan's told her she has to follow, whether anyone else does or not. Fortunately, they all agree to go with her. As the set off, she's the only one who can see Him, and she's leading everyone else.  "He led them to the right of the dancing trees -- whether they were still dancing nobody knew, for Lucy had her eyes on the Lion and the rest had their eyes on Lucy -- and nearer the edge of the gorge...for a long way Aslan went along the top of the precipices. Then they came to a place where some little trees grew right on the edge. He turned and disappeared among them. Lucy held her breath, for it looked as if he had plunged over the cliff..." Recently, I feel as if I've been following Jesus and He's disappeared, plunged right over the cliff. ********************* Last fall, I began thinking about words for 2017. I love the idea of claimin...
