Coffee?
Seriously, my energy levels has been so low this past week. Not like anything is going terribly wrong, but everything I'm doing or feeling is tiring. Why am I so tired? Perhaps it's the buildup of work, school, thinking about finals and final assignments to accomplish before the end of the school year?
I really think I got depressed from getting a C+ on one of my four papers that I spent the most time on in mid October/early November. I stressed over it, was near tears over it, tried to make it good, better, appealing to my professor, yet I got a C+?! A mark shouldn't dictate how you think of yourself, but I think this paper initiated a avalanche of tiredness and poor thinking. Maybe the devil is using this time to tackle me as well...
On another note, remember when I mentioned this book I found in the staff room at work ("When God Winks at You") ? Well one day at work I saw it in the staff room but it had moved from a shopping basket to the GARBAGE! I was like this book is not in the greatest condition, but did we really need to dispose of it? I guess I can assume I'm one or the only Christian at work that cares, so I took it. I hope to get around to it once things die down and see what the book has to say to me. I'm sure it was God's purpose.
I need to dig myself out of this tiring rut. ugh.
Hi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteAw I didn't know you were that tired! Hopefully the workouts are helping you? I'm sorry to hear about the C+.. but you know what, there will be other opportunities where you can do better. Remember, we're not measured by our achievements. God already knows our worth before those papers, exams, and all the other things. Don't let that paper bring you down. Five years from now (maybe even just 1 year) that mark on that paper won't even matter to you. Keep staying strong. I know it's hard to not focus on school (look at me :S) but we just have to keep trying. "God would not throw anything at us that we could not handle."

Tea
are you getting rest? that's what weekends are for! there's no reason for you to be that tired if you're getting enough rest. you should try to take a day before exams start and do absolutely nothing. at least nothing that requires a lot of work/thinking. do stuff that make you happy and calm.
ReplyDeleteand sorry about the C+, i can def relate to working hard and not getting rewarded for it. but keep on running with it. look to God and he's always gonna provide.
GL!
