Something sweet and something nice.

I had an exam at 8am this morning.

I prepared to sleep around 1am but I actually fell asleep around 3:30 (after passing the time with phone games).

My phone ran out of battery by the time I abruptly woke up. A bird cries outside. None of my eight alarms went off because my phone was dead! I freak the heck out because only God knows what time it was.

I stumble over to the microwave and read 7:37.

Praaaaaise the Good Lord for getting me up out of bed and to get ready in time to head to my exam room with time to spare for studying!!

I'm pretty sure I did well super well 'cause I met my 43/50 minimum to get dat A :D

2 Corinthians 4:7 NLT We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves.

I am blessed by this rain. It's the kind where the drops are plump and the air smells of tea leaves and the air is soft and warm like a sigh of relaxation but there's no breeze tickling my ears. I have time to stand still and take pictures of precipitation captured by puddles, released by the trees. It's like Taiwan. It's like picking me up from the middle of my stress and transporting me into the middle of heaven, where stressing out and feeling down about things I can and can't control is illegal. It's like waking up in bed to hear that classes are canceled (which is a funny thing to think about during finals time). This is the opposite of drought.

I realize I wouldn't have known you had even one detail been changed and I can't get this thought out of my head.
