Almost and a Day

I know I said I wouldn't blog until after my MA Comprehensive Exam on October 25 (written) and October 28 (oral), but I've decided to relax on this fine Saturday evening. I thought I would enjoy a delicious cup of green tea and spend a few minutes posting this unexpected update. Every day and night, I'm either doing schoolwork, studying for the exam, or playing pool. I'm in desperate need of a night off!

I have a scant two weeks before the exam, and I'm strangely calm. I have been inundated with work for my three classes in addition to preparing for the exam. Thankfully, I have been keeping up with the schoolwork, and I have taken the time to meet with other students to study for the exam. I readily admit that my energy, enthusiasm, and strange calmness comes from God. I know I can't do this without Him, so I pray constantly. It's how it must and will be.

I hope I'm still calm at noon on the 25th, and I hope those four essays in four hours are passworthy!
