Never forget.

You aren't loved because you matter, you matter because you are loved. There is none greater than the love that cares not for what you've done, but in fact loves you and wants nothing more than to make you completely lovely and lovable.

Or, as John so eloquently put it, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish, but shall have eternal life."

*thinks on such a weighty gift*

Contemplating Panic

The first day of the new semester is tomorrow, and so far I don't seem too terribly worried about it. Nor am I ready. I have gotten none of the books, effectively making sure I won't be getting any used ones from the bookstore, although only two of my classes had a book list up anyway. I'm not terribly panicked yet, though I think I feel the slight stirrings within my stomach. I also don't have the parking permit for school as mom has it with the car, and she's not in town for a few days. I'm hoping I'll be able to find places to park elsewhere, but I may just have to buy a day parking pass. We'll see. I'm not sure whether I'm looking forward to my new classes or not. I'm also wondering if Maria will still be working in the computer lab. Ah well.
