It is time.

First post and I'm not feeling the pressure whatsoever.

I just decided to get this blog because I have a lot to say about nothing.
Call me what you will, but to put it bluntly- I'm one of those people.

A friend of mine drew a nice little chibi photo of the Goblin King himself for me. It is now proudly displayed on a binder for all to see. I am considering printing out another copy to put it up in my room. I have to say, the Goblin King is definitely a cheery site. Eminently charming and practically perfect in every way.

In further news:
I think I'm going gray. Already. People have observed that it looks like I have gray in the areas where my natural hair color is coming in. I am quite young, so I'm trying to convince myself that it's just the remnants of the bleach I have from constantly changing my hair color. However, the "gray" is in a place where bleach has never touched. I'm so old.

Still in further news:
I am very frustrated at the moment with the education system when it comes to registering for the fall semester. It seems that the university likes to allow people to register based on how many credits they have. Since it will always be a battle to get all of my credits transferred, I cannot register until May 6, while others can register this week. I would not be so aggravated if it wasn't for the fact that there are two classes that I'm extremely worried about getting into now. Both are for my major and one is an introductory course that I must take in order to be able to take any other later courses. The other is a course I am most adamant on taking as part of my concentration requirement. Both courses only have one section and seating is very limited.
I was extremely aggravated when my adviser told me that they can't reserve seats or put anyone on a waiting list, so if I can't register for a class I'm pretty much out of luck. (When I was looking up this process online, it actually says on the university website that it is possible to have a seat reserved.) I am hoping to be able to talk to someone to ensure that I am able to get into the classes I need to, but it is still an extremely stressful time.

Luckily there is always hope when it comes to such things. Before I showered this evening I was, for all extensive purposes, having a panic attack. However, I had a chance to calm down and know that God is in control of my life and that if I cannot get into a course then it is all in His plan. Naturally, I will feel disappointed to an extent if I cannot take the course (and probably angry), but like tonight, I will get over it and I will trust in God. He is entirely in control and knows exactly what He's doing, even if I cannot see it myself. It is definitely very calming to know that God will always be there to choose the right path for me to take. I may fight it, but as soon as I let go of my pride and belief that I can control everything, I know that God will take me in the right direction.
I trust in God, and I need to detach myself constantly from the reality of this world to focus on what God wants for me and let him take the reigns. Otherwise, this world can easily engulf all those to its folly.

(Edit: The Goblin King is currently my photo for this blog, simply because I don't have the energy at this moment to reformat a photo of myself.)
