Tuesday Musings
It’s days like today where I realize that in solitude, the heart and mind speak louder about what you actually need in your life, not about what you want.  In simplicity and naivety, “essential” ideas are revealed to us; they are the words you need to hear to get you through your endeavors. I have to say that I am content with the current state of my life, but there is...

Religious (Mis)Understanding, Religious...
So, yesterday was Ash Wednesday?  How did everyone know? (Obviously, I knew because, if you did not know already, I am a practicing Catholic).  Oh yeah, those “marks” on your forehead, right?  Yes, those “marks” on my forehead. Today, as I was sitting in my Phy Sci class, my friend noticed my “mark” on my forehead and noted that it was, indeed, Ash Wednesday....

Filling out applications are such memory trips.  It really shows you how much you’ve accomplished and how much progress you’ve made.

Some People Just Don't Understand the Physicality...
Friend: Marching band isn't a sport.
Me: Ok, so march.
Friend: *Marches*
Me: No, not like that. Your upper body can't move. Roll your feet. Now stop jerking. Now go backwards. Now on your toes. No, stop bouncing. Now jazz run.
Friend: How do you guys do this?
Me: Now do it with an instrument.
Me: Now with a uniform.
Me: Now memorize eight minutes of music.
Me: Now memorize 90 places on the field and how long it takes to get there.
Me: Now make the forms look pretty too.
Me: Now spend 14 hours a week at practice.
Me: Now do it in whatever weather conditions happen to exist at the moment.
Me: Now-
Friend: OK, you win.

An Update part 2
Just calculated my score for my second 111A midterm.  I’m definitely satisfied.  As per usual though, improvements are needed.  But seriously though, I haven’t had happiness like this in a very long time. :) Now, time for a well deserved break with Dance Marathon!

An Update
A great night out with friends was just highlighted by a very satisfying score on my 111A midterm.  Honestly, I haven’t been this happy/relaxed in a very long time.  Maybe I’m actually doing something right for once.  Hopefully I can keep this happy streak going through finals. After Round 1 of Exams, I’m doing fairly well. Seriously, I have not been this happy in a long time.

“Stop being your own worst critic. You are not. And if you keep hating yourself,...”
– Rayven Juanengo; honestly this is what true friendship is. Not giving on me when I wanted to give up on myself. I can appreciate a friend that can keep it real, be tender, yet know better than to let someone get down on themselves. I know she’s all love and I know she wants best for me. This is why...

February's Theme
So before I begin my classics paper, I just realized how interesting of a week this has been.  It’s been a different roller coaster; last Friday had a lot to do with it.  I guess the theme for this week is… Opportunity. A lot changed this week in everything.  It’s like a month passed and I’m finally getting into the swing of things. Actually, it’s been a month. To...
