My sisters

Today, in about an hour and 45 minutes, my sisters will be on a plane headed to New Zealand. That's right, they are headed down under for six months. And I will miss them. Here I am in a town I love, doing things I love, with people I love (minus the girls now of course) and my heart says, GO TRAVEL!!! Get out of here. See the world. Experience life and stop living day to day here in one place. Then my brain has to have a chat with my heart cause, well, I can't leave as of yet. It sucks but it's reality. I am back in school for a reason. Yes, it's taking forever and costing more money than I have or make but someday it will be worth it I am sure. Trouble is, til then my heart keeps yelling at me and that's not fun. Working at a bookstore doesn't make it all that much easier. I am surrounded by stories of people doing something other than what I am doing right now!!! And I don't even have time to read those stories anymore. This is a depressing post. My heart is sad, it's being left behind. It doesn't have an adventure to go on right now. It has to wait. And that my friends is pretty hard.
I can't wait to hear from my sisters about how much they love New Zealand! They are going to have so much fun. And it's going to be the adventure of a lifetime. I am so excited and nervous and happy for them!!!! I will miss them, and the adventure but I think I can try living vicariously through them and remember that I will see them again soon.

The need to prioritize

Have you ever found yourself in a place where you have a hard time making time for everything you have to do? I noticed today, I am not very good at making sure I make time for the right things. And when you are rushing to get stuff done it seems to take five times longer! Today I got stuff done. But not enough. There's just not enough time for everything I want to do, need to do and have to do! It is crazy. Mostly all I want to do with my time is see Dave. And a couple other people scattered in there as well! :) I miss him when he isn't around or when I have to stay away to get stuff done! Homework has become my nemesis. It's terrible. I have more work than I know what to do with. And not enough brains to master it all! Which makes me wish even more that I was just spending that time with Dave-he doesn't make my brain hurt!
Important things in my life:
Homework
Work
Dave
Family!
All the stuff that has to get done, but I avoid doing (laundry...)
