| i am now a college grad. my life isn't too much different from when i was in college except now i have even more bills (but still no money) and i am reading the harry potter books. i am also a roastmaster. yes. impressive, i know. jake funkster, burney and i are living in a crazy awesome ridiculously-large mansion in siloam. come and visit us! that is all.
i really need to change my profile picture.... crap.
and now i must return to work/drinking coffee. | | |
| i never update this thing anymore. i should be writing a paper, but i hate writing...
my recital is in less than six weeks. i'm freaking out. i still have SOOO much work to do and no time to do it, and the semester just keeps getting more and more busy. oh well. such is life i guess.
this week i get to do the following: transcribe & perform a jamie cullum song, take a physics test, write two papers, memorize a bach partita, make cheesecake (in that order). then choir tour next week. colorado, here we come!! (note: colorado people, we are singing in colorado springs, frisco, denver, and greeley.... maybe i can see you? please?!)
this afternoon i wrote a paper about social justice. i am a very selfish person. society teaches me to be a selfish person. but i am called to live a life of self-sacrifice, a life that is devoted to caring for the oppressed, to actively seeking what is just and right, and by doing so to know God more fully. i watched a documentary on AIDS in preparation for writing this paper. it made me uncomfortable. but then as soon as it was over i slipped back into my self-centered world. who am i?!? why am i so full of myself? i am called to love others and yet somehow i just end up loving myself.
yeah, i hate writing...

| this has been the week from hell. i am ready for it to be over. | | |
| i am ready to go home.... | | |
| being sick is lame. i don't like it. my dad starts his new treatment tomorrow (hopefully). his blood counts have been too low lately to do anything, but the blood test on Monday looked okay. i don't want to be at school right now. i just want to go home and be around people who understand me. i don't like being in relationships with people... for some reason i'm just not good at it. maybe that's why i got a c in the building strong relationships class.... i don't know. but regardless, i don't seem to have much luck. maybe i should just become a hermit and move to the mountains somewhere and live by myself with my piano and my dog. maybe one day.... | | |
