My oscillation between despair and joy continues, as this afternoon I'm feeling significantly better about life.
461 homework is done (thank you thank you thank you Dave).
391 paper is...getting there...
French doesn't feel too daunting
and neither does lab.
So, what did we learn kiddies?
Katie should try harder not to freak out about school all the time.
I read Romans 8 last week, and I really like a lot of the verses in there:
18: For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed to us.
26: Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
28: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
31: What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can prevail against us?
35: Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
37: Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors though him that loved us.
38: For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor pricipalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39: Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
May I add "nor 391 papers, nor 461 homework, nor post lab quizzes, nor sleepless nights, nor feelings of inadequacy shall be able to separate us from the love of God"?
Everything will work out. Things will get better. The semester will end.
I have been so richly blessed. If school is all I have to worry about, life is not so bad.
It's just hard to remember that sometimes.

Thanks for sharing, Katie. I love those scriptures.
Hooray for the weekend almost being here, and hopefully catching up on some much needed sleep :)
