:)

I have learned a new motto that is slowly getting stuck in my head, "just do it."
I get stressed out A LOT, about things that are coming up and things I cannot help. I always have.
But nowadays, David just says, "just do it."

And you know, that sounds so simple, and at first, I didn't listen, but it makes a lot of sense.
The last couple of days, I've just been trying to take things one step at a time, and it's helping a lot towards my stress levels. You see...my next two weeks are cuhhhrazy :(

i guess this post is more for me than anyone else...hahaha, you see, i wouldnt be that stressed IF it was this only this week I had to worry about. HOWEVER, it's not, and the space shows everything I have yet to start on - aka all my exams I have not started studying for since I have been doing other assignments. On the bright side, I did my whole paper today :) I just gotta keep my head on straight these next couple of weeks and it will be okay. I JUST GOTTA DO IT. :)

On a sadder note, I didn't go grocery shopping today, which means I will not have any good snacks at school tomorrow. Silly joanne.

I am so happy though. Despite the homework load and the stress I'm trying to ignore - hahaha.
I hung out with my boooooooooyfriend this weekend, got lots of homework done and saw a bunch of friiiiiiiiiiiiiends the other night :) and therese cried when she saw me. hehehe :) but i also made a lot of new friends, which was soo awesome as well. PLUS, me and carmela dominated the last round of dutch blitz..aka getting a perfect 100 when I had to go. oh ya :)

I am a happy camper :)
Wish me luck and pray hard for my sanity.

It's one of those nights that I honestly cannot do homework, not matter how hard I try. I try to tell myself that I need to get done, but my subconscious knows that nothing is due tomorrow...and motivation flies out the window.

A friend of mine asked me today, "who are you? Honestly."
I still don't know what he meant by that, as I write this, but it got me thinking. I think it's a hard question to answer, or is that just me? I can't explain it. You know how people always say that we are who we are when nobody's watching, and I guess that's true. I was also reminded recently of how Mr. Dueck would say that we are the person that we are when we crawl into our beds at the end of a long day - nobody around, but ourselves and our thoughts. I guess I've also written before that I think the key to knowing someone is knowing their hopes, their fears, and their aspirations. I tried to re-evaluate those, and I guess that is also true as well.

It's still hard to explain though. I don't know how to. I don't know why I felt like blogging that.
I'm just Joanne, and I can't explain any better than that right now.

That's all I have to say right now.

what's up, doc?

Hello, hello....it has been a while friends!

I have been so busy, busy lately. And it's a busy week coming up :( I have a project, an assignment and a presentation all due this week. I'm already in week 8 of 12, so it's getting quite busy..really getting down to crunch time :(

But good news friends, I got 85 on my drafting midterm :) which is the beessstt mark I've ever gotten for that class :) I was so relieved. Plus, I really like how my assignment for freehand this week :) teehee

In other news, another thing I'm really happy/ excited about is: me and David have started reading the Bible together before school whenever we are able to meet in the mornings :) We're starting in Romans and that's pretty cool :) It's a really nice start to our mornings, I think. I think we were inspired by the Psalm post secret that I found and we thought it'd be a good idea to start it too. :)

We also started to play this game where we quiz each other on little facts about ourselves. Each time I get a question wrong, he gets a point, and vice versa. Right now, we are sitting at 8-6 (for David) - but it ain't over til the fat lady sings! We started playing it cause david kept listing facts about me all day and I got jealous. :)
My fav part was when he said, "yesterday, I was trying to think of your favourite colour and I couldn't think of it - but it's cause you don't have one" AWWWW hahaha - I told you I'd blog this, David, so here you go :D

Wish me luck this week, friends!
