Random Update

So here's the thing. I can be somewhat of a perfectionist. However, I am also a huge procrastinator. Yet, I love how it feels to start studying for a test days or a week in advance, it helpe me to really feel like I grasp the information, but that goes against everything that is procrastination. So I feel a sense of disconnect. I really wish that more often I could find the motivation to not procrastinate and to spend so much quality time studying the information I am learning in my classes. The thing is, I LOVE learning, and when I take the time (like I have been for this second New Testament exam) I find how much I really love learning and grasping the information.

Kind of makes me wish i hadn't finished my ethics exam 16 minutes before it was due today. Especially since I do not at all feel comfortable with what I wrote. Granted, I sound intelligent on the exam, but did I really answer the question? No one knows. Everyone that I talked to today when we turned them in agreed that they had absolutely NO idea how they did on the exam because we were given very few peramaters on HOW to frame it. Guess I'll just have to wait until after spring break to find out. The good think about it is, I don't have to worry about it over Spring Break. For once all my midterms are before spring break not after. That is such a nice feeling.

And, now I am about to pass out. 4 hours of sleep last night is fading fast and I need at least 8 before playing with Sky all day , and studying all night.

I'm so ready for spring break...

Once Upon a Time...

So, I should really be working on my wonderful paper that I am now a page and a half into. After my last post I definitely popped a page out in about 15 minutes...then it took me an hour to get the next half page, and I have been on something close to a 4 hour hiatus from said paper...*sigh* I have to start by 10pm. I HAVE TO. That is my deadline for procrastination...then I will spend the rest of the evening into the wee hours of the morning finishing this paper. Even though its not due until midnight tomorrow...I have another final I have to start...so yes.

However. While I have been procrastinating and playing with my fun new blog...I started looking at some of my old pictures from my trip to Europe. See...I started 2006 by going backpacking for 2 months through all of Western Europe. Just for the brief rundown...I visited (in order): England, Scotland, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, France, Ireland. Yes, we went to Germany 3 times...it is a good central location. So, while looking through my pictures, I decided that I should post my five current favorite pictures from my trip. This however is quite a task seeing that I have well over 1200 pictures from my trip. So...here they are.

This picture is of the Lincoln Cathedral, taken from inside the Lincoln Castle in England. Random piece of trivia knowledge: This is the Cathedral that they used to film the DaVinci Code.

This is a canal in Prague. Easily one of my favorite cities in Europe.

This beautiful scene is seen from atop the castle in...Salzburg, Austria.

I'll give you two guesses as to where this one is...and if you need the second guess...I'll say you should study history a little more. I loved how when I turned the corner this is what I saw!

Pompeii was amazing. Spent over 5 hours there and didn't even see half of it. A-Mazing.

Ok, I will probably randomly upload more pictures from this trip because it was amazing. And, I picked these five pictures at random and didn't even get to the second half of my trip, but I didn't feel like adding too many pictures today. I do have to get back to my paper whether I want to or not! Anyhow, I love talking about this trip, so if you'd like to know any more about my adventure or see more pictures just let me know!!
