I have to space out my caffeinated beverages by about a week. I love coffee, but I am very sensitive to caffeine. It does some pretty iffy things like make me sweat and shake, but it also makes me so unbelievably joyful and optimistic. While this is a pleasant side-effect, I choose to try to avoid caffeine if I'm able because I want to find joy within myself.
I explain this all because it is inspired by this caffeine induced enthusiasm for life that I begin this blog. Here I am, second year of college, blessed to be in a beautiful house with 20 beautiful people, learning to be on my own and to be joyful.
I have several places around the internet that I use as outlets. Each has it's own purpose. Each, to put it in sociological terms, shows a different face. I have yet to decide what face will be here; what I will write here or who will read it, but I feel those answers will shape each other.
For now, I am off to my history of the crusades class with my wonderfully passionate professor. I am looking forward to listening to the Death Cab for Cutie Open Door-EP for the umpteenth time today on my walk across the bridge.
I always fall in love with an open door
With a horizon on an endless sea
As I look around the ones who were standing right in front of me
always,
Emily
