I can't believe it's been over a month since the last time I blogged about...well anything for that matter.
I made a New Year's resolution that I would try to blog at least once a week but obviously I've already failed at that. I guess I didn't anticipate this semester being so hectic and time-consuming. Each day I always have something to do, whether that be reading papers for classes, writing lab reports, tutoring students, taking practice MCAT exams, etc.
I've also made a commitment to try to regularly attend small groups and Sunday service, which for the most part I have. And I'm really glad I have because each week I learn something new about God, whether that be about Jesus in The Bible or about how to live out my own faith.
But something about this semester seems so repetitive, as if I know exactly how my whole week is going to go. I always follow the exact schedule I set for the week and frankly I feel like I should stop. Time management is good and all but I feel like I don't give myself any flexibility to do anything spontaneous. I miss making last-minute decisions to go get coffee with friends. I miss being able to just take my Nikon and go somewhere obscure and take hundreds of photos. I miss walking onto a basketball court and playing a pick-up game with strangers.
Where did the excitement of spontaneity go? Everything seems jaded.
