Jetset.
The past couple months have been…a b l u r r.
I stopped my Picture a Day project in February. Once a project that is for fun starts to become a chore, it’s time to stop. So I did. I will post up through 02/11 though once I have a chance to catch up. School has never been more crazy and for non-academic reasons too. But as at Cal, I am learning probably more outside of the classroom than I ever will inside of it (as a student anyway). Leadership, management, professionalism, organizational, interpersonal skills. All of these only come through experience, not casebooks.
As the Lenten season approaches, I need to rediscover my faith and live it out loud. Predictably, now that I know what my commitments will be for next year (teaching Legal Writing, journal work…all of these things which seemed like they would help clarify my future once I received/accepted the opportunities), I look into the next few years of my life and still only see fog. I say it’s predictable only in the sense that it has become predictable that things are unpredictable. What a quandary. But if law school has taught me anything, it’s that I cannot always be in control. I can only do my best and somehow, I am so lucky and blessed that it will work out.
This afternoon I head to New York to catch a flight to Salt Lake City. I’m really excited to have a couple days in powder with one of the earliest loves of my life, Crystal.
For now, I’ll leave out the more routine changes to my life as EiC and a couple other defining opportunities. But know that I’m living life at full-speed while still trying to stop and smell the roses. Now, I’m off to Spring Break 2011.
