Blah

I'm caught in a funk right now - it's not enjoyable (duh), but I'm plugging away. I've been saying that I only have 3 months of school right now and I can totally do 3 months worth of that if it means there's no more. I think I'm wrong - I'm definitely feeling the affects of knowing I'm done soon. I have no motivation to do any of my schoolwork or study. I've also noticed that I'm echoing the same sentiment many of my classmates are: we're all planning on landing a job before we graduate, so why should we try hard this last semester? Our GPA doesn't matter after we graduate anyway.

While it makes sense (to an extent, assuming we DO all get jobs before we graduate), it's not what God wants. "Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do all for the glory of God." So I need to be studying for Him. What I learn now could impact how I do in the work place and I need to be doing my best in all areas for the glory of God.

Mmmm conviction.

In other news, I've landed an interview with AEGON. I'm not excited yet because last year I got an interview as well, but it didn't go any further than the first interview. There will be more excitement (or dread) if I land the second interview. Although, Jodi pointed something out: AEGON is in Cedar Rapids and I wouldn't be able to do the missions internship. I'm praying God makes it very clear what He wants me to do.

Well, it looks like it's time to hit the books once again. I'm not fond of History, but I've got an exam on Monday that's going to kick my butt unless I start cracking (the books).

Ew...no pun intended.

Man, it's been forever!

It doesn't feel like forever though, because I, on a regular basis, seriously consider writing a post and often times mentally write out a rough draft about what said blog will say. But, as many may have noticed, those blogs don't ever come into existence. (By the by, is it still considered a legit blog if i only type out 2 paragraphs? My initial answer is 'yes' because my blog title says '5 minute blogs' which seems about right. So expect more? Or a change in blog title.)

Boys are confusing as heck. IDK what to do with you all. (ps, if 'you're' reading this, it's not about you. pretty sure you know who 'you' are.) It's seriously been way too long since I've dealt with any of this and quite frankly, I don't what I'm supposed to do. Not that I ever knew what I was doing anyway - I'm apparently not all 'up and up' on my relationship lingo. (i.e. going on a date isn't dating. wtf?!) Anyway....all this to say that I'm not sure there's anything anyway, but nevertheless, I often times wish guys and girls weren't so different in their approach to relationships. Things get hella confusing and it's ridiculous.

Ridiculous.

On the unconfusing other hand, I got the missions internship at Cornerstone Church! This is so exciting!! I feel like I should be compiling a 'Christian' resume - something that I can give to missions organizations that say my missions related experience and classes and whatnot. Good idea? Bad idea? Cause there's a lot I'd like to use on a resume, but don't feel like it's appropriate for a Professional resume. Make sense?

And also, there's a new addition to my face. If you've seen it, don't tell Mom or Dad. :D
