Aaah, to sleep away the worry

Good morning world!

Today I find myself in an interesting position that involves circumstances that feel out of my hands. I went to bed last night at around 2am. For a weekend, that's not too terrible since all my Saturday morning plans fell through. The only problem here is that I couldn't actually fall asleep until around 3am. However, it's the weekend, I should be able to sleep in and catch up on lost sleep. Wrong again. Without setting an alarm or asking to be disturbed, I found myself awake at 7am. That's four hours of sleep. This has been a recurring pattern this week. I'm dead tired all throughout the day but once the hours of 10-11pm hit, I'm wide awake and kickin'. What's a poor girl to do when she can't sleep?

On a brighter side, I've been doing pretty well in my schooling so far. I've managed to get all my homework done for the first few days of next week, leaving my weekend free to do whatever I please. Isn't it wonderful to have that freedom with your schedule?

I don't really have anything else to say this morning....maybe you could give me ideas on what you would like to read.

Until my fingers brush these keys again.

School has begun again!

And has it been crazy! I have a full load of classes plus a part-time job. Now, to some, that might sound like a lot so now I add the full social calendar that keeps itself full without any help from myself. (minus being ridiculously witty and fun to be around, but we don't speak of that. ;) ) It has been really great so far though. My Heavenly Father has greatly blessed me with every skill/talent to accomplish everything I have on my "To Do" list. I'm pretty sure if I didn't have Him to cry to every night, my life would be one big empty hole filled with a lot of hot air.

In other news, I've started a second blog. Now, I know what you're thinking, "You barely keep up with this one anymore! How in the world are you going to keep up with a second blog! Shavonne, my dear, you are stretching yourself too thin." 'Tis not so my dear friends! The second blog is for my Principles of Journalism class. I have to write specifically about journalism and my views on the issues discussed in class. I'm pretty excited to take on this project. If you all want to follow it, just click here. I would greatly appreciate all the comments and feedback you can give me. The idea is to create a discussion, giving me an idea on what I want to do with journalism when I graduate.

I'll give you a much more detailed post next time. For now, I could be late for class if I don't skidaddle.

Until we meet again!
