Away We Go!

Hey all! (If there are any of you out there!)

This is my new blog, as I am no longer in Denmark (read about that semester here), but still need a way to vent about my life! After everything I've been through the past few years, I found this fall that writing things down, even if nobody is reading, is really great for letting things out and not relying on people to talk things through with. I have a ton on my plate any given day and to be able to figure things out on my own makes me feel better.

Today it was just the idea of priorities. I had nothing I had to do, I didn't wake up until 1pm and sat around all day. But the moment I was asked to do something and talk to the members of one of the boards I'm on at school, I was sent into stress overdrive. This happened at the same time I found out I wasn't getting anymore hours at work until I'm back at school, that I still have a ton of lease paperwork to figure out, I have to make a car appointment, meet up with friends, still buy christmas presents, and figure out my plans for tomorrow. GAH! So much stuff for me to worry about. I think I can get a lot of it done tomorrow, but it's just the fact that I commit myself to so much, and then it all piles up and I can't handle it. I know it will all work out, but when you're in the middle of something like all that, it's hard to see the other side.

Thankfully not working will give me more time to figure things out, and I still have my mom to help me right now. Honestly I didn't think I'd be this dependent at 20 years old but life never goes the way you think it will! We'll see how this semester goes, hopefully my lighter course load will de-stress me a little bit. Thanks for reading and I'll hopefully update soon!
