Cold on Germination rates

The cold is slowing my garden down too much!! Jalapenos are supposed to germinate Jan.7-17 Lettuce is supposed to germinate Jan.9-16 and Cabbage should germinate Jan. 7-16. Not awful yet but defiantly having an impact. I am usually able to germinate seeds before the minimum number of days. It has been pretty cold in my room at home over Christmas break (60's-70's) Hopefully returning to school will help jump start the seeds. My room at school is usually 80ish no problem. Small stone houses tend to be easier to heat up fast. Pictures will be up as soon as something starts to grow if not sooner.
I am so ready to hang out with more friends and am looking forward to new opportunities this semester will provide. This semester I am seeking to find more inner joy in my life, and improvement on time management. With all these science classes time management is huge if I want to have fun and hang out too :) So I want to know how my readers are doing. Are you going to grow a garden? What do you want to grow? Do you need any gardening advice? What are you plans for this semester in your life? How are you going to improve your self and grow closer to God?

Seeking inspiration for every part of my life...

so life still sucks but it could always get worse.. I hate feeling empty.. I wish she would suffer as much as she made me suffer every second every day without even knowing it, and at the same time I wish she could be the only person in the world who never had to suffer..cuz I care about her.. but eventually it will get better.. I wish it was hot and green outside.. but I know for sure that will get better in a few months.. I need to prepare myself over the break for next semester. I need to prepare myself to be a leader in the ccf house. I need to take the initiative to study 2 hours for every hour in class like everyone knows they should, and spend daily time with God seeking him so I will be able to lead bible studies and encourage others and find more joy. I would love to have more joy in my life..
I need more encouragement before I can do too much with my garden. I see the garden like art. The soil is my canvas and the seeds are my paint. If I'm not feeling inspired I cant grow things as well..
