Doing Hard Things

Yeah...I totally semi-ripped the title from a book. One that I honestly never actually read all the way through.  That seems to be something that happens to me on a constant basis.

This Past Week was Rough...

I think it was not being able to rest last weekend due to the 72 hour film festival that I took part in.  Yeah. It took a lot out of me.  Not to mention the procrastination had caught up to me.

"The Disaster Artist" - A Review

Now anyone who knows me knows that I enjoy movies...of lower quality.  I'm not sure why, but I've always enjoyed those movies that lots of people know as "cult classics."  Movies that the fans love, but the critics do not.

Where have I been?

You might have noticed (or you may have not) that I disappeared off the face of the Internet for a little over a week.

Fear

Fear. It's defined as such (according to Dictionary.com):

a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid.

Ohio Comic Con 2013 Recap

So over the weekend, I went to Ohio Comic Con in Columbus, Ohio.  I have to say...that was one of the best experiences that I have had in a while!  Being my third year, I was excited to see what the convention held for me this year!

School starts again...

So, if you haven't heard already, I'm back at school at Cedarville University. I'm actually really excited about it.  Classes don't start until Wednesday, but I'm pretty sure it's going to be a great time.  I've moved in with my roommate who is awesome, and we finally unpacked last night (I've been here since Saturday) and everything is starting to seem a bit more real.

It's such a pretty campus!

The new President, Dr. White (you can follow him on twitter: @DrThomasWhite), started off the school year with chapel yesterday with a Q&A Chapel, and he mentioned that he wants this year to be a year of stability.  He wants us to be able to trust him as well.  I respect that. I really do.  Coming into the school year with no one knowing who he is, and having a lot of people not like him because he's not our previous President, Dr. Brown.  Yeah, I imagine it's going to be hard to get used to it, but I for one am welcoming this new change.  Having something different isn't always a bad thing.

Also, I realized this past weekend that I have a lot of friends.  Yeah, I kinda realized a little before, but on Saturday after my parents left, I spent time with about three different friend groups. Being an extrovert, this is fine.  I am energized by being around people.  It just goes to show that I also am going to have to be discerning about who I hang with more, especially in the aspect of time management.  Once school starts, it's going to be difficult to hang with all these people all the time.  I don't like making choices. Like, I live between the two bathroom doors and have trouble deciding which one to use regularly.

I probably make Rebecca Black look extremely tame.

Finally, I've been slowly trying to urge myself to start getting into exercising again.  The gym is a stone's throw from campus, and most of the time last year, I only used the gym to get from the dorm to the student center, as it's a straight line from one to the other.  Wanting to find myself accountable in that aspect.  Well, in many aspects this year.

Yep.

So this year is already off to an interesting start, and school hasn't even started yet.  I can't wait to see what God has in store for me.
