Monday: left the apartment at 8:30 AM, got home at 12:30 AM (yes, 30 minutes PAST midnight), and finally finished what needed to be done and crawled into bed around 3.
Today: alarm went off at 6, was in the shower by 6:15, and left around 7 AM. Got home at 11 PM, to start working on an abstract for a paper that is due tomorrow. When I left school, I didn't even know the topic of my paper... Yep.
So needless to say, I'm exhausted. But when I begin to analyze WHY I am tired, the goodness of our Father blows my mind.
Cho-Yeh is on campus, so I get to spend all my "free time" during the day recruiting for next summers staff. It's tiring because that is a good chunk of time that I normally would spend working on homework or relaxing in between class, but I LOVE getting to hang out with camp people and be able to help get people excited about applying to Cho-Yeh.
Water Polo. Between practices, planning an out-of-state tournament, and a mountain of paperwork that seems to be unending, polo keeps me going. But I'm blown away that the Father would entrust a team of such sweet girls to me for the next year!
School. It's a drag, and it demands late nights and long hours. But I am blessed to attend a top-notch University. I'm blessed to be able to have the mental ability to learn, the emotional ability to handle the craziness of school (well, handle to the best of my ability), the social ability to make friends, and the spiritual ability to chase my Savior in the midst of it all. School is definitely a blessing, and although most days I don't seem to count it as one, it is.
I'm exhausted because the Father has blessed me so abundantly. How can I be anything but thankful for that exhaustion?
