GF Journal 8/27/2012


Week 11 ramble
I have a hour before my next class, instead of working on my last few physics problems due tomorrow, I’m writing this. Yup, college is back!!!
This weekend has been super hard. I’ve tried to just tune everything out, but that’s not a good long term solution. I’ve been trying to come up with a way to face my feelings, and finding next to nothing besides chocolate and Doctor Who. I know the chocolate isn’t the best way to cope, but that part is at a minimum… just don’t take away my coca-cola!
Side note: I’m sitting in the computer pod at school, have been for about 20 min or so, and the girl next to me has been checking fb on her phone the whole time… I’m not a genius or anything, but if you’re sitting at a computer, wouldn’t it be easier to check fb on there?
Anyways, this weekend I had to drive my sister to the airport so she could experience a miracle and fly in a big silver bird all the way to China. It’s been rough. Really rough, I never realized how quiet my house is, for that I’ve had mythbusters/hoarders/any crappy reality TV I can find playing constantly.
I’m so thankful for imessage, I get to text her because of it! It’s usually only a text or two when I wake up and she’s going to bed, but it is enough to help. I’ve been trying to just stay away from the house, but my poor doggie is there, so I’m looking for a new place to study that I can take him and he can people watch to his heart’s content :)
I ran out of breakfast food this weekend, not a big deal. I didn’t think to get some before I woke up Monday morning and was running late (per usual) to school. So I stopped and got a gluten free muffin from a shop. That was a bad idea! Somehow it was cross contaminated and I felt like crap all day. I got home and crashed for 2 hours. So my homework didn’t get done like it should have. The only part that surprised me is that it was the first homework of the semester.
I’ve been doing good with this no gluten thing. The hardest challenge I face this week is finding a new place to study that might have munchies for me. Not sure that is possible in Abq.
Last week’s big challenge was finding lunches to take. This problem was figured out when my sister left (sad face for her leaving). I still make dinner, and it’s next to impossible to just make one portion of anything so I have leftovers. Yay!
One last thing, I got the blood test back and I have Celiac :)
Well, actually they said I had borderline levels of the antibodies, and that it’s most likely that I had Celiac. Which I agree with, because most of the gluten I ate for the test didn’t stay in my body… rhymes with comet.
I’ve been in a grumpy mood most of this weekend and only able to focus on what has been going wrong in my few days (the last straw was realizing that my shirt was on backwards… 3 hours before the end of my 10 hour day…). I opened up my phone to obsessively check my email and clicked on an encouragement email I usually delete before reading and this was the verse:
  ” May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him,       so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit”
                                                           Romans 15:13
Thanks God for the serendipity moments in my life, they mean a whole bunch to me!
