the calm before the storm

right now i'm relaxing. it doesn't happen as often as i'd like it to these days, but it's a welcome respite. especially since the months to come will be quite a challenge.
in the fall semester i am taking 4 classes--which is a fairly heavy load--and i'm getting married. i hope i will have time to breath. i am also trying to work more so that finances won't be so much of a burden. i guess it's all more stuff that comes with growing up, but i haven't even gotten there and i feel overwhelmed.
as daunting as it may seem i am kind of looking forward to the challenge. i want to stretch myself and see if i can handle the full schedule and the long hours of study and work. i hope that i can. we shall see.
