When Life Hands You Lemons...

Senioritis is real ya'll. I didn't think it was a thing, but it totally is. I've pretty much got something lined up after I graduate for a job so I am just like alright lets just sit back and do nothing. Whoooops.

I've really been struggling lately taking each day one step at a time. I don't know if its graduation around the corner, moving to a new city soon, or just the stresses of college but I am like a wound up fishing line. I expected to be feeling the opposite with so much more time on my hands now that volleyball is over but I think that since I don't have as much structure in my schedule I just have a pile of crap to do and I don't know how to sort through it.

The last weekend of Sing is this week so maybe that will help me settle down...mom dad and the sisters are coming in for one of the last performances and to celebrate my birthday... 22 in 6 days? WHAT. That's crazy. Jacoby will also be coming to visit on Saturday and then through my birthday.

I've really been enjoying my video journalism class as well as my photography class... and I've been doing a lot more of looking at work. I really enjoy the editing process with film so now I'm thinking I want to focus on that....maybe movie trailers? I think that would be sweet.

I was talking to my mom back during Christmas break about time...not just the numbers and how it goes by so quickly but just the fact that time really is so very precious. I've realized that lately when I give my time to someone or they give me their time, that is truly a gift from God. Shared time. What made me realize it was this project for school where I had to interview a couple photographers that had already established themselves. It was really cool to see how many people I emailed were so willing to speak to me and answer questions...how many people were willing to give me their time. Time that they would never get back. How cool! It really is just a special thing to share life with someone even when it's 5 minutes of your day. I think a lot of times we overlook that...like yeah okay we go get coffee with so and so or whatever...but that time spent was just with them...ya'lls time. And idk, I guess when I put that in perspective it's pretty cool to think about.

What else? My mind is kinda blank today... alright... no more wasted time (:
