It's gonna be crazy.

16 days. Two exams and one quiz. One Old Testament Summary. One Critical Book Review. One Catechism Diagram. Wait, that doesn't sound like a lot, it just seems like a lot.

Sure, I'm 10 days closer to going home than I was 10 days ago, but I am also 10 days shorter on preparing for final papers and such.

I don't know why I am blogging, I have my critical review document open and the book laying in from of me closed. I need to stop stewing and start doing. Right now.

Wait, wait; I must close with a quote. I love this one.

"Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, 

but only empties today of its strengths"

Just For You

This one is for you, Sabrina! I love you! See you in 21 days! :)

One Month!

oh boy oh boy! In exactly one month I will be walking my finals history exam to the front, and I'll be DONE. No heading up to my room to start on homework, no getting ready for tomorrow's class, there won't be anything to do. That'll be weird.

There will be so much to look forward to after that moment. My first train ride, exploring down town Toronto with Kristin, and going home.

For now, I have four weeks to prepare for final exams and papers. Oh well, it'll keep me busy; hopefully.

Day Thirty

Day 30. A picture of someone you miss.

My Opa Kamerman. I don't remember much, but I do remember him enough to know I wish he was still here. I remember what his voice and laugh sounded like, and I remember his hands. They were arthritic, but they still played with his grand kids. I remember talking on the phone with him and Oma, and I still remember when he made me a doll house and cradle.

And I remember when he died. I remember being too shy to give him a back rub in the hospital, and I remember crying when my mom left me with my aunt so she could go be with him. I remember the funeral, and seeing him in the coffin, but I don't remember feeling sad. Even though he played with me, spoiled me, and loved me, I didn't cry, I didn't miss him. 

I miss him now, a lot. I have to remind myself that even though I wasn't exactly grateful for him when he was around, I did still enjoy him. I would give anything to have him back, but knowing what pain he was in while still here, I am so happy I can't.

Day Twenty Nine

Day 29. A picture that can always make you smile.

I love both of these pictures SO much. I miss the people in these pictures SO much.

I can't wait for Christmas! 

Day Twenty Eight

Day 28. A picture of something you're afraid of.

Airport security. Mostly because I just booked my tickets for going home at Christmas. So excited, so dreading this. 

Day Twenty Seven

Day 27. A picture of yourself and a family member.

... or five family members. 

I love my little cousins. So much. They came for a visit in August, and that was such a good time. We picked early blackberries, and went shopping in Halifax, and went swimming, and roasted bread dough, and made mud face masks. It was so much fun.

I love you guys!
