It seems at times that our lives and  experiences are unique, which they are, but then you talk to a friend or acquaintance and you realize that even though we are unique, we all experiences similar things and have similar lives.   I was talking to Kristine and we both are different people with different lives but with some similarities.  We both are going to school and we both thinking (hoping) that this semester would be maybe easier or a least not as stressful.  However it seems as though it is our hardest one yet! Crazy! 
I feel a little out of sorts and disorganized (which is somewhat normal for me) but  life has been hard this semester.  Funny how we think of our lives as a time frame-i.e. semester, school year, sports season, job, etc.  Life is just that life! I guess what I am saying is that I should just be enjoying it as it comes and not sweat the small stuff.  Life always goes on, the small stuff comes and goes, and we are still here working, coping, trying, succeeding.  I will look back at this time and say that wasn't so bad.  I got through it and I am still alive and kicking.  This is just a small part of the bigger picture.
