Tired, a little stressed, and wonderings...

This week is going by fast, yet also slow. Let me explain, fast in that tests are quickly coming up, and I have been studying, yet for some reason I am not able to study enough, since I have 3 tests within a few days of each other. My schedule as of late has been classes, work, and studying for the huge muscle test we have in anatomy next tuesday, which I still have a lot of studying left to do for. I feel like I haven't had any time to spend with friends this week, and that is hard, because people are good for me, they help me to shift my focus of the stressful things, and the things that depress me.
I am stressed because of tests, I pray that God helps me to study adequetly, and then to not worry, but to rather perform well. I know that God will not forsake me, and that His plans for me don't necessarily hinge on getting straight A's, but at times it is hard for me to remember that.
As always, I continue to wonder about what the future holds, and wish I could just get a glipse of where I will be in a few years, so that I wouldn't worry so much. I guess the biggest thing I worry about is that I will be alone, and in four years will be the only single one left of my group of friends, and will be watching them all get married. I know that being alone is fine, and that God could still use me, and maybe use me better. However, I don't think anyone really wants to be alone, we are created to be in relationship. Sometimes it all feels like such a routine, as in that I know what I will be doing tomorrow, next week, and next year. It is getting harder to be excited about things when it feels like it won't change.
Don't worry, I am not super depressed or anything, for long ago, I learned to not place my hope in this life, but rather to place it in the one who created me, and in the fact that he will remain with me to the end, allowing me to serve him, and enjoy some good friendships and experiences along the way.
