Things on my mind.
October 29th, 2004 | by john |There are just a few things on my mind right now:
Georgia Tech vs. Virginia Tech football game
Wow, what a let down. I was so angry at first… then I realized that it’s really just a game and I cooled myself down. Our team was doing so well in the first half and they blew it all within a couple minutes to victory. Now, I feel sorry for our team because they’ve worked so hard and all their work seem to go to waste. I was so excited for Georgia Tech and wanted an upset so bad… as I was walking back, I couldn’t help congratulating some of the VT alumni that were leaving from the stadium. I told them that their team had a great comeback but it really broke a lot of hearts of GT fans. The alumni sympathized with our loss but thanked me for the congratulations.
Test to Study For…
I have a test at 2pm tomorrow. I am planning on studying for a couple of hours tonight and getting up a bit early tomorrow to continue studying before the test. Wish me luck!
Introverted
I realized that I am being very introverted most of the time these days. It used to be I was mainly extraverted, but nowadays… I don’t particularly feel social. I remember being such a brat back when I was a child – talking loud about stupid little things, being proud and arrogant. Now, I am mostly quiet and seek time alone as a form of relaxation.
Work
Work is going pretty well. I am glad to be working again and making the money I’ll need for tuition and my future. I’ll just need to save more money than I used to when I had my previous job. I think I found a negative aspect of work though – I guess I saw this coming. Since my weekends are really just all work – I feel left out at times when things with friends are going on. I’ve said no to things so many times now, I guess my friends are starting to think that I value my work more than friendship. I hope my friends understand this will never ever be the case.
My Faith
Surprisingly, I think that my relationship with God has become just a little bit closer within the past month or two. It’s true that because of work, I don’t have time to go to Church on Sundays, my attendance to Bible studies (on any level) has been zero this semester… but I feel I’ve took a step in the right direction alone. I’ve had a couple of friends help me just last year while I was questioning my beliefs… they’ve held my hand and lead me one small step at a time. I no longer feel I need the hand holding but this might be because I know that if I faulter with a step, I can always seek spiritual help from those friends again.
Anyway… about the whole studying for the test thing… I’m going to do so for an hour or two. Have a great night
