I will not be a dork. It's ok, it's just "research." [insert sarcasm] I just need to keep on repeating that to myself. And if I repeat it enough, I won't obsess, I won't be a dork, and I will realize that "research" does no good. (If you don't understand this, it's ok, nothing huge. For those of you who do understand these ramblings, make it stop!)

When did that happen? It's only a few weeks after spring break. I'm not ready for exams. Argh...prayers and support of other means are appreciated and willingly accepted as well as reciprocated (rdmathew@umich.edu if you need some). But after finals it's Chapter FOCUS Week with IV in the UP (which happens to be the best week ever, seriously, it is).

Untie them and bring them to me. If anyone says anything to you, tell him that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.'

Ok, it might not be THE best night, but definitely top 10, maybe even top 5. I seriously had the best time. (If you couldn't tell) Right now, you might be shaking your head and saying "now Rachel, what did you do last night that was so much fun?" Well, here is the answer. :o)

(Just when you thought this was all going to be depressing)
One thing that I have not gotten use to with college is the number of people getting married. Yes, I have friends that got married last summer, friends that are engaged, but the wedding is far off, and friends of friends that are married, but noRachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08328171981331503725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932884.post-916886132003-03-31T00:14:00.000-05:002003-03-31T00:15:26.000-05:00So...life. Yep, that's what this is. Although I'm not sure what I'm living should be called life. Roller coaster works, as well as free falling, but not life. Life is just to tame for what I'm dealing with.
My personal life is crazy. My school life is crazy. My plans for the summer are all up in the air, waiting to come crashing down. But God is taking care of me, and He will see me Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08328171981331503725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932884.post-912389692003-03-23T16:06:00.000-05:002003-03-23T16:09:42.000-05:00I know I haven't written in here in forever and a half, and I apologize. But in my defense, when I created this journal, I said I wouldn't update very often. But here I am, updating. Many thanks to those who keep on reminding me. :)
Well, this is a place where I record what happens in my life, and my reactions to these events.

And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I'll say it clear,
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's full.
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway;
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Regrets, I've had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

There are only a few times on your life where you can act of a spur of the moment idea, and last night was just that.
For those you who don't know, there have been meteor showers around the world, and these are the best showers for about 100 years. So what do a bunch of college students do? We go on a hunt to see them.

No matter how hard i try, i cannot seem to complete it on my own. The book doesn't have the answers, my notes don't seem to have the answers. neither of them have the information or equations to do them. arg....

I don't know why I am up so late. For some reason, I can not get to sleep, and this is not good. I have an exam tomorrow night that i need to be awake for.

Little did we know that it would be almost impossible to trim the ivy, and it risks a chance of falling out of our third story room. Why did I call my blog "A View of Ivy"?
