“Let us [sail] with endurance…” (Heb 12:1) This verse from Hebrews has been the motto for my blog right from the very beginning. This past year, the enduring part has become very real for me. I have been hanging on desperately, fingernails scratching into the edge of the metaphorical cliff, and trying very hard not …
Nanowrimo 2013 will begin in about 5 and a half days. Only 5 and a half days. You may remember me mentioning Nano previously. It’s been a while since I last blogged about it, but I have participated (and won) every year since 2010. And I’m aiming for 2013 to be my fourth consecutive win. … Continue reading
This is what I’m looking at right now: Don’t worry about the blurry picture – what you’re seeing is not much better than what I’m seeing! In fact, this picture could be used to sum up fourth year so far. This year has been one bad powerpoint after the next. If it’s not paragraphs of … Continue reading
I have decided to introduce a new policy for my blog. I’m calling this the “just write something already” policy.

After all, it was just the other … Continue reading
Yes, we did actually book a seminar room to take a nap… Continue reading
Tomorrow I turn 21. In all honesty, that’s kind of daunting. Tomorrow I enter into the "grown-up" world. (Not that twenty-one is all that grown up anyway…) Yet, it’s still a daunting thought. I’m (dare I say it?) just a little scared. You know, this reminds me of some advice I shared with the second … Continue reading
One of my friends asked about my blog the other day. She remarked that she was beginning to worry that my brain really WAS fried. Well, I’m here to disprove that. My brain isn’t that fried. Sort of. Not really. Totally. (And I’m definitely not hearing any sizzling noises. None whatsoever.) Anyway, I’m back, and … Continue reading
