Destiny's Child

So, as usual, there is way too much going on. Oddly enough there really isnt anything going on at all. All I know is Im busy and I would rather be in New York. Which translate to theres nothing new going on with me. Im getting adjusted to classes finally this third week and they all seem mostly cool. Finite Math, Textile Design, Urban Practice and Policy Major Seminar, Honors Thesis( A Bitch), & Interdiciplinary Studies Thesis. All cool classes for the most part. Honors Thesis is gonna kick my ass. My advisor told me a few weeks ago...
" Yeah, I know spring semester for seniors is supposed to be a piece of cake but for you, not so much. I mean, you will have fun, but not until like the last three weeks. Your work could really send you somewhere but you have to put the work in and I believe you can do it. You just have to become a Nun for the next 6 weeks or so. Or 10 weeks or so. "

Im glad to hear that he has confidence in me but I am suffering from a serious case of senioritis. I have never slept so much in my life. I cant seem to figure out whats going on with me but I really want to get it together. The worse part is that there are signs every damn where saying "Cassandra now is not the time to be lazy!" Between my Mom, and Sisters... Gosh. Take my hororscope in Harpers for example.

"Midmonth you will be offered a career change(YAY); exercise your independence, and don't wait for others to join you in your new adventure(CAN THE CHURCH SAY AMEN) If you get down to business, those travel plans in the near future may be more possible than you thought.( I.E. NEW YORK) And by attending to your professional life now(YES MOM, GOSH) , you will soon have the leisure time to mend a romance and make it even better than before. (I.E. NO VALENTINES DAY WEEKEND GETAWAY)"

I mean, its plain as day, printed in black and white, page 60 of Harpers Bazaar, which is the next best thing to the BIBLE!

I was watching Pastor Lance Watson of St. Pauls Church from bed on last Sunday(cause getting up before 10 is alot to ask of me) The sermon was all about Gods Favor and its effects on your life and those around you. He also talked about how we think that just because things are not changing the way we want them to change, their isnt any change going on and that God is never idle, HE'S ALWAYS UP TO SOMETHING.

The way I see it... God meant for the February Issue of Harpers Bazaar to come to me. He is fully aware that each month I cant function without the latest issue of my fav magazines. They inspire me, they keep me company(I know Im lame), and they give me something to look forward to every month. So I figure, its not the fact that my birthday is June 12th and Im a Gemini that made me get that message, that was just the way God chose to send it to me, so that I would hear it.

So maybe next year this time when Im reading Harpers again, I'll be in NYC (with a man apparently) living the life that Im destined to. Sounds good doesnt it. I'll try to step up my school and employment game so that I dont risk deferring from my dream. Pray for me yall!!

Off to ensure the fulfillment of my destiny

Smooches
