yo, it's only been the first week of school?

that's crazy! i can't believe i've only been in school a week. it not only flew by fast, but there's been such an overwhelming amount of things to think about and do.

but thanks be to God, i haven't completely stressed out.

in fact, i think at the beginning of the week i overreacted to how much stuff i actually have to do. and God has provided me plenty of "alone" time where i could recharge and gather my thoughts. so as the week went on, the way i dealt with things that came at me were better than the way i dealt with things at the beginning of the week. and on top of that i went further and did things that were beyond my comfort zone and beyond my normal character.

i've actually been working on that for a while now. God's been revealing a lot of my true character to myself and how much i need to really really work on shaping it and making it to be more of the person God wants me to be. so i've been trying to change my mentality about certain things and certain people, and because of that my actions have been changing.

i sometimes tell katy about some of those things and one time she said, "tammy, i think if you're telling me all these things that you do out of character, i think it means your character is changing."

i think she's right.
