Whew, what a day. I feel exhausted, no matter how much sleep or how many naps I get. But, I am heading home this weekend. Not really looking forward to the drive, but it'll be worth it. Not only do I get to move some of my junk home (saving Dad a trip with the truck) and get some real food and get to see my family, but I also get to spend precious time with Emily.

Bible study tonight at CCF was good, but I had trouble staying awake from my lack of sleep. Man, I really should get some more sleep.

And I am NOT looking forward to finals, but oh well. They are inevitable. I am just eager to end my career at Tech and start anew, whether it be at Clemson or a community college or what not.

I sure do miss my friends from high school. But sometimes when we are hanging out, I feel a lack of connection. Maybe because of the identity shock Tech afforded me. In high school, I was the brains, plain and simple. I mean, that was just who I was--how I defined my existence. But now that has changed. Since I stink at school now, I had to look to another source for self worth and significance...God. Only He is eternal and permanent and immutable. No matter what happens in this life on Earth, I have peace in that He will never leave nor forsake me. I just wished I had learned this sooner.

Well, I am getting tired. That's all for tonight.
