Sabbath Day Miracle

I have a hard time posting updates on my life, since nothing every seems to change.  I normally wake up, eat, go to school, eat, come home, eat, kiss my husband, do my homework, and go to bed......pretty darn exciting huh!  This past week was a little different.

Have you ever had a week that felt overwhelmingly impossible?  I was sure last week was going to be that week for me.  There have been many challenges since I started graduate school, but this is the first time I've EVER had a test, project, or final due in ALL of my classes at the SAME TIME!!!!  Honestly, I think my teachers forgot that we have more than one class.

This story begins Saturday, March 7th at precisely 10:00 PM....(two days before my midterm was due).  Although I had been given a week to work on it, I was busy spending most of that time preparing for a scary voice final, plus a million other assignments.  I decided to designate Saturday as my "work-only-on-language-midterm" day.  It only had 10 questions, so seriously, how long could it take?  HA!!!!!! I woke up at 6:30 AM to begin.  At 1:00 PM I had finished 3 questions....yep...ONLY 3.  I was starting to panic a little.  By 10:00PM I was on question number 5.  Like a true procrastinator, I had skipped the hard questions and 16 hours later was only half way through.  I have never been so stressed out in my entire life.

Not doing homework on Sunday's is one way I try to keep the Sabbath day holy.  It has been such a blessing in my life to have one day a week to NOT think about school, and FOCUS on what's really important.  It's a great way to stay balanced, I totally recommend it.  BACK TO THE STORY.....At this point, I knew I would not be able to finish on time without doing homework on Sunday.  I was in need of a MIRACLE.  I wrote my teacher an email explaining our crazy week and pleaded for one extra day.  By 10:30 there was still no response and I knew if I didn't get to sleep soon, my primary lesson would be a mess.  Aaron gave me a blessing and I quick checked my email one last time.

I had a message from my teacher saying that she was so sorry about our crazy week, and that she would extend the deadline one day.  I thought that was enough of a miracle, but it didn't stop there.  Later that week I also received an email from my voice teacher informing me that I didn't have to take the final since I had an "A" in her class...  My neuro teacher decided to give us a case study instead of a test, and Dr. Ahmend moved the due date for our research paper back 2 weeks.  Thanks to my Sabbath day miracle, the week turned out to be not overwhelmingly impossible.

I know that Heavenly Father blesses us when we try to keep the commandments.
