Completely Exhausted

This day has been so long, and so tiring. My mind is finding it hard to think. I can't even write long sentences.

The day started out with me waking up late, and basically running to class. Class was boring, and then I had a break in which I had to handle some official business. Then my next class was boring. I kept yawning. I had to spend another hour practicing. By this point I'm starving.

Fortunatly, my noon Jazz Piano class was cancelled. This allowed me a small break before meeting my mom for lunch. I had a long lunch with mom and we talked about what was going on back home.

After that I had orchestra which was boring as all get out. I've lost my music so I got a little stressed about that. Then the fun was just beginning.

I was supposed to eat dinner with the Teaching Fellows and the Dean of the College of Education. I could not find them, so I ended up missing the dinner. Then after that, I had praise band practice and then the performance at CCF. I carted my keyboard and stand all the way from the LLC to the other side of campus. Upon getting there, I discovered I had left my chord changes in my room.

So back I walked to my room. Got my chord changes, and then walked back to the other side to practice. Playing was great, and then there was some heavy praying going on. After it was over, I had to cart my keyboard all the way back to the LLC and up that big hill.

Then I had another interesting/serious/revealing/heavy conversation with Jonathan about my romantic life, or lack of one.

So today has been very draining. I'm obviously physically drained, and it shows. I'm mentally drained, as is apparent in my writing. I think most of all I'm emotionally drained.

So, I need a good recharge, and that's where all of you come in. Leave me messages, send me emails. Change my Wall. Re-inspire me to laugh, live, and love again. The sparkle is slowly dulling....you better act fast, less it extinguish.

Monday Had To Come An Hour Earlier

Daylight savings time stole an entire hour from me and my sleep.

The day wasn't really too bad actually. My classes weren't all that bad, lunch was good, my English class was cancelled, and praise band practice went really well. Then of course I got back here in time to see one of my favorite shows in the world "Who's Line Is It Anyway?".

And then...continuing the trend....UNC Chapel Hill won the National Championship!! Now, I'm not a big basketball fan. I much prefer Women's tennis, volleyball, Women's softball and of course...cheerleading. However, I am very happy that a team from North Carolina won.

So, looking back at the day...I can't complain. Hopefully tomorrow will continue in the trend of good days. I will leave you with tonight's quote which comes from some girls facebook profile. I promise...as much as it fits...it did not come from me, it really is someone else's.

As always, May God keep you this and every night.

"Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you are just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares, and loves being with you and how he's the LUCKIEST guy in the world to have you...The one who turns to his friends and says, "That’s her."

The Music Of The Night

The world is changing right before our eyes. What we are living today will be in the history books in the future.

The world has lost a great man in Pope John Paul II. I'm not Catholic, but yet I am still saddened by the loss. The Pope was a brave man who knew what he stood for and did not waiver from it. He fought against abortion, communisim, and promoted peace and love. I am glad that he is now at peace, sitting with the one he served for so long.

I've been sitting here in the dark, listening to music, trying to relax and meditate. Starting out, my mind was racing. Now, however, it has calmed down. With all the major deaths lately, it really makes one think about life. I still never want to take it for granted. I still want to tell others that I care. So...

If I haven't told you I care today, consider this your notification. If you didn't get an "I love you" or "I'm glad I have you", this is it. Consider this your hug and kiss goodnight. You all may rest easy because your Angel is watching over you. Now let the Music of the Night envelop you and take you to where all your dreams come true.

As always, may God keep you (and me) this and every night.

"Softly, Deftly, Music shall caress you. Hear it, Feel it, Secretly posses you. Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind, In this darkness that you know you cannot fight, The darkness of the music of the night.
Floating, falling Sweet intoxication, Touch me, trust me Savor each sensation. Let the dream begin, Let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write, The power of the music of the night!
You alone can make my song take flight, Help me make the music of the night..."
