stream of consciousness

Visiting San Francisco is great for so many reasons, but one that I didn't anticipate this time is that I realized how far I've come from when I left. I still miss that city that stole my heart, but I'm finding my way in Atlanta.

I wrestled with the decision of whether or not to continue in nursing school or to quit and aim for med school. I decided, for many reasons, to continue in nursing school. I feel a peace about my decision and am glad that I examined the decision from so many angles. I needed that.

I feel very hopeful that this semester of nursing school will be better than the last. For one, I've got a renewed sense of purpose. It also seems more organized and I like my professors' approaches so far.

I got a few projects done this past week that I've been wanting to accomplish for a while. That always feels good.

I'm learning more about being in relationships with people all the time. I'm amazed at how much there still is to learn. I often relate to people like I have it all figured out.

It's frustrating that my mom still is really depressed and there doesn't seem to be a lot of movement on that front. I don't understand what God is doing.

Atlanta has a lot going on and I've resolved this year to take advantage of it. I want to get people out enjoying the more unique and creative entertainment options.
