Refocus

Lunch by the ocean, on a windy mid-day, was almost just what I needed today. Tough week, better yet everyday this week I had a head ache. While working on the kingdom Fungi that has about 40,000 different types of them. It's like learning all the ants name and characters as they march to my untouched donut hole. About 34 microbiology books skimmed through, and studied in the past 3 months. Probably about 90 procedures done and recorded and about 40 mold and fungi. Not really a big fan of saying these words like Scopulariopsis, Chaetomium, Ulocladium, etc... I got my gear packed and ready to go. I wasn't sure if I would get in trouble if I bring mold with me in the plane, so I guess I'll just pick up some when I get to the East Coast. I'm ready, I think. I just want to get in that plane and fly for 5 and a half hours. Hopefully get sleep and arrive, rest and will start my mission out tomorrow.
It'll be good to be away. I need to be busy. I need a distraction. I need to be alone, for a bit in a new place, with new people. I'm scared. I am. But I have to go through it whether it's a pass or fail. I have to accept whatever happens and even if sometimes it's giving me head aches. I just need to take my time. This will be good. I may get the jitters and scribbles, but I need to focus. "To a man on a mountain road by night, a glimpse of the next 3 feet of road may matter more than a vision of the horizon"-C.S. Lewis. I'm just letting God handle the rest. I'll be happy with what happens in the East Coast. I got my bible, my gear, my luggage, my books, my chapstick, my ipod, my phone, and myself. I think I'm good. Just need to push negative energy away and absorb positive energy. I'll be all alone, but I got Jesus with me. That's good enough.
I'm outta here! :)
