I love Covenant. It's awesome. Beautiful campus, great people, nice rooms, Christ pre-eminent, etc. But sometimes I get overwhelmed with that feeling of just wanting to get away. I was crocheting with Amy but we knew we needed to get out of the room. Library? No. Carter? No. Mills? No. There was nowhere we wanted to go.
So we left.
So we left.
We drove down the mountain. Tried Starbucks, no empty tables. Drive-thru Chick-fil-A was the next best thing and then we headed to the Yellow Deli for a place to study. After a quick walk through (seeing way too many Covenant people) we left. No tables again! Why can't restaurants get more tables??
So we just drove. Looking back on it, I'm glad the Yellow Deli didn't have room for us. Because driving and blasting music is, well, wonderful. We got on the highway, turned up the music, and went with no destination in mind. We didn't need to talk. We just sang along with Of Monsters and Men, One Direction, Mumford, Ellie Goulding, Radical Face, and The Killers. It was so great. Other people were sitting in the library, working out, or sitting in their rooms, but we were far, far away from it all.
Just driving.
And now with "Your Song," sung by Ellie Goulding, stuck in my head, it is time to sleep.
Sometimes it is just so good to get away.
Gute nacht.
