The Rambling Lion

Whatever I have to say. I don't promise that it will make sense. Just smile and nod. The lion thing is from middle school... let's pretend I'm clever.

Senioritis has struck!

Since the departure of my good friend, I have started to find it quite the challenge to be motivated to do any of the work I should be doing. Some things have just started to... not matter as much. I have found that right now I truly wish I could just focus on the friendships and the relationships that I have developed these past years. People are more important to me. Too bad I won't be able to help that many people unless I finish this dang degree.
Apparently I should hear tomorrow or the next day from those who interviewed me for JVC. I really hope that I make it in. If I don't... well, I am pretty interested in what God has planned for me instead. If I don't make it, then I have been totally misreading the signals in my life. I hope there is something out there for me to do.
One month until graduation. I can't believe it is that close. I can't believe that a year has gone by so fast. I can't believe how much of my college career was squandered away. I can't believe how many loans I am going to have to pay off.

I should go to bed now. I guess I only have one thing left to mention that is on my mind right now - I love how certain people can just lighten up my day. Whether if it is through the exchange of a look (of understanding or annoyance) or through a phone call from a distant place, I am so happy that I have those people who constantly make things a little brighter. It's like God has bestowed me with a team of misfits, with each member playing a role in the course of my life. Some support me when I am down, some are there to laugh with me when I am up, and some who are there all the time that just "get" me. I seem to be a simple person with a light side and a dark side, but really, I have a ton of layers that are only revealed around "team misfit."
I guess the part that really baffles me, is the fact that I am actually able to feel like I am worth the effort of the "team." I can honestly say that this is the first time in my life that I feel like I have true friendships - people that I know will always be honest with me, will challenge who I see myself as, and who will not be pushed away easily.
I hope they see me in the same light. I would do anything for them.
