the end is near

this should not be a sign held by religious leaders near a cliff because no one will think that it is the literal cliff end that is near.

the end is near - for school that is; it feels nice that i am about to close school. i like sleeping in and just enjoying the summer (i will be working and starting on my thesis so i will really not be sleeping), but an illusion is better than nothing.

plus i will have time to look and stare at other people and notice mismatched socks (the end is near, my supervisor did not have time to do laundry and thought no one would notice he had a blue sock on one leg and a green one on the other leg). Am exhausted, not blind and especially during office meetings where i try to keep my mind active...

Seeing that the end is near, I can only say thatnk God. and i mean thank you God for seeing me through this session. If there is one person I CANNOT do without, it is God.

Just to fill you in, I keep getting lost when driving. it is just a weird thing and every time I am lost, I miss Nairobi, I know most of the roads in Nairobi and getting lost in Nai would not make me want to cry (I have not yet cried when lost but i have missed a class). WHAT THAT HAS TAUGHT ME: to pray and KNOW MY DIRECTIONS - why did I not take geography classes...

sleep deprived?

in life's journey, I am coming to realize how precious some things in life are, SLEEP. I would have wished to talk about what exactly you are thinking about but when it is almost the finals week and you have so much work due, you relaize all you want is sleep, too much work and too little. Rmeinds me of the saying no rest for the weary soul. Because I do not like confessing negative stuff, I am not weary but I sure would like an hour's sleep. Hooray for some sleep!

I hope when I get to bed I will not keep waking up to look at the clock and think of the work I have not done, (I am sure I am not alone). I need to go and zzzzz

so so private

life can be so lonesome. when you think about it, you realize how alone you are in life. you are born alone, experience pain alone and eventually die alone. yet, within our lonesome journey, we find friends who are there for us, friends we can share our lives with.

The most important thing in life is to remember that there is a friend who is closer than a brother. Even when we feel so lonely, there is a friend who will stick close to us. It is nice to know that God is always there by our side even when things are not as good as we would want them to be, when I am down, that helps me realize that there is hope. If there is someone who can still stick by my side when things are tough (especially someone who knows what the future holds), then I know things will turn out to be OK.
