.break-ing.

the title has somewhat of a double entendre intentionally.

firstly, it's fall break. i've only had one class since 2 on wednesday and it's been pretty great to feel little to no responsibility for much of anything. many many people are gone from the dorm and those of us who are still here pretty much reside in the lounge for these couple days. thanks to friday's ingenuity, we set up stadium seating by lofting couches in our lounge and had a mario kart tournament in the lounge last night. it was pretty spectacular. also a group of us had a bonfire down by Taylor Lake....als pretty good.

on the other hand, it's been a tough weekend. i've been dealing with this stupid recurrent headache and i've been attempting to pound out a 15-20 page paper on two Bible verses. it was a huge struggle at first but now (again thanks to friday and some to dr. smith) i've got the hang of it and it's just a matter of discipline. also, times when everyone gets to go home are always hard on me...if only cuz i can't. not for a long while. plus...it's a busy theater weekend and it's dawning on me now just how much needs to be done in three weeks. add to all of this just the normal goings on...relationships, issues, complications, life...and it hasn't been easy.

so i've been break-ing. but i've also, in a sense, been breaking.

and i'm learning that that's not always a bad thing.

either one.
