Finally posted pictures from my Italy and Greece trip [that I went on almost about a month ago...] This whole traveling for two weeks, home for three days, traveling for two weeks, home for three days deal has finally started to catch up with me. I feel like I didn't even had time to reflect on my Mediterranean trip before I left for my two week spring break. Here I am again having to unpack, do laundry, repack, cram out papers, projects, and presentations, upload pictures, update the blog... all before leaving this Friday for a 3day trip around Cyprus. And THEN -get this- do more presentations, paper, and an entire Art History journal, repack, and leave for a two-and-a-half week Europe trip starting Wednesday night. Ah! I'm exhausted. And I know what you're all thinking... "Really, Kendall? You get to go to how many countries and you're whining?" Well, yah. It's half way into my program, and I've started to really miss home.

The people. My house and backyard. My Momma's cooking.

McDonalds breakfast and my Dad's homemade orange juice.

Ritz crackers. [which they seriously have NOWHERE in all of Europe! I checked every airport, which, mind you, was about 5, and have come to the conclusion that they just don't believe in the cracker.]

People who speak English. [But, seriously.]

Haha. I've come to just laugh at myself every-now-and-then for having these overwhelming thoughts. But it was bound to happen sometime or another. I just have to remember to take everyday at a time, and enjoy everything [easier said than done, right?] Well, I found this on a friend of mine's blog today, and it really hit home.

"Stop trying to work things out before their times have come. Accept the limitations of living one day at a time. When something comes to your attention, ask Me whether or not it is part of today's agenda. If it isn't, release it into My care and go on about today's duties. When you follow this practice, there will be a beautiful simplicity about your life: a time for everything, and everything in its time."

-Jesus Calling, Sarah Young

There are so many times that I get so caught up in what I have to do tomorrow that I forget to enjoy today. Or too overwhelmed with what I have to get done today that I end up sitting around in frustration, accomplishing nothing. That being said, I'll have an update of my spring break trip up here soon, hopefully accompanied by some fantastic photographs :)
