My youth group from home has been after me to come back from school and stay with them over night for their semi-annual lock-in. They got the better of me, so here I am, 4 AM and I’m writing this! They are still speeding up and down the halls playing hide and go seek and capture the flag. I feel like I’ve been run over by a mac truck! The really scary thing is, 5 years ago I was doing the exact same thing and still had energy to get up and go the next day! Life just seems a little unfair, college has truly drained the “youth” from me. I can stay up studying or writing a paper, but this nuts! I feel like such an old woman! Oh well, maybe when I get past my degrees I will feel like hyping myself up on gallons of sugar and fast food and then running around for hours screaming my lungs out. Or, maybe, they will discover the monsters named Midterm and Final Project and they will snatch the years of hyperactivity and youthful endurance away from them too!! (cue evil laugh please!) Oops, did I say that out loud? I think I just saw my left retina float by; maybe that’s what the red lines are on my computer screen!
