Not much has changed. Now, my chores consist of endless reading, projects, and studying. I get more done on Friday nights and Saturdays than the rest of the week. My "expensive coffee," the few extra minutes on facebook, and an extended Bible-reading time make for a more relaxing morning.
I hit the books by 9am. And by afternoon Dunkin Donuts is calling my name. It has become my new favorite place. I get my free donut (recently it has been pumpkin) with the purchase of a coffee or latte, and I hunker down to Skype Josh for the next hour. It's tremendous fun and I hate to end our "face-to-face" conversation. My motivation upon returning to campus quickly weans after that, and I spend time perusing my books or talking to friends amidst my studying. Sundays start at 6 and end when I finish my homework after being in N. Carolina until 10.
Here I sit, Monday night, and wonder where did my weekend go? Not much has changed. I still get my "chores" done, and despite the stress it creates for me the rest of the week, I still make time for those enjoyable moments. Life is meant to be lived. One donut, one phone conversation, and one more weekend at a time.
