What an great start to this summer. I have such high hopes for what can be accomplished in the next couple of months, and what that will mean for this coming year - my last as an undergrad in college. Each day has been productive - cleaning, organizing, hanging out with friends, etc. - but as a whole, this summer seems to just rush on. I think there's a big part of me that desires so much more substance to what I am doing each day, and yet my head and my heart can't seem to come up with ways to find it.
I've started to work out every day (which has been amazing) and I've started on my first summer reading continuing Searching for God Knows What by Donald Miller which had to be put on standby during the semester. I hope to get through at least five books this summer, although there are nine on my end table and more on the the waiting list.
The job search never really got off the ground, but I think between my one class, weddings, side projects, and the weeks that I am gone in July to help with choir camp and go down at the TCDA convention in San Antonio, I think I'm better off without it.
This week marks the first with people back for the first summer session of classes. It has been rather quiet around here over the past couple of weeks - but it should pick up a little now. I miss everyone that is out of town (or out of country for that matter) but know that they are out there doing what they need to be doing, and soaking all the joys that freedom from school and away from this place can offer.
A couple quick notes:
1) Days spent beside the pool are better spent with friends.
2) If you're going to stay up until 6am talking on a balcony, you might as well wait up to watch the sunrise.
3) If you're going to help someone move in, at least try to cut a deal that gets you a free meal.
