My Feet Don't Touch!
I feel like a child right now. I just finished my interview and I’m trying desperately not to start counting my chickens before they’ve hatched. I’m just really excited! This excitement is making it difficult to focus on anything else. I’m currently sitting at a table in the library on the downtown campus rocking back…

Naps Make Me Sleepy.
I never take naps, except today it seemed like a good idea. I got up at 4:30am to volunteer at the Detroit Zoo for the Scleroderma Foundation (scleroderma is an autoimmune disease that effects the growth of skin cells). The Foundation hosted a walk/run to raise money for finding a cure and I was invited to set…

Welcome to S.S.A.
Hi, my name is Megan and I’m a self-sabotager. Is there a 10-step program for that?

Test Run.
I have an interview Monday morning. Wish me luck! Quotation of the day: “The secret of success in life is for a person to be ready for opportunity when it comes.” – Benjamin Disraeli 25 page paper? Bugger.

5… 4… 3… 2… 1…
Set the countdown. There are five days left until I drive over to Grand Rapids, meet my friend with a trailer and move my belongings into my new home. There is chance, through all of this, that I will have to rent a storage unit for the bigger ticket items that I know will not fit…

Fact and Fiction
It started with a phone call. “A storm is coming. Are you watching the news?” I wasn’t. I had been listening to music on my computer while the television replayed the MTV Movie Awards in the background. Come to think of it, I hadn’t stepped out or even seen the outside since I had taken…

USA! USA! USA!
I’m a fan. Phenomenal persistance against Algeria today. Landon Donovan, great work. Refs, another disallowed goal? Really? Get it together. Feeling caught up in World Cup frenzy.

Pick up the pace. Lub-Dub. Lub-Dub.
Yes, it’s time to pick up the pace, to take a leap of faith. I, for one, believe that faith is a funny thing. (Note that I’m not commenting on religious faith here but rather the generally applied definition of faith which we feel free to place in people, situations, goals, or time frames. That…

Railroad Track My Progress
I think I’ve been running alongside the railroad tracks for a while. I’ve been headed in the right direction, just taking my time. Somehow today has shown me that it’s about time to get on the train and take a more proactive approach. Leap of faith. Hold my breath. Steady my footing. Go all in. 1,…

Enigma.
Life, where are you leading me? Or am I leading you? One foot, then the other. One foot and then the other. Whether I lead or follow, the steps are the same. One foot and then the other. But truly I know you. You do not lead and you do not follow. You progress when I…
