| I never thought I was a stupid person...
That is, until I entered the Music Education Major at BBC.
If that wasn't stupid enough, I thought that I might even be somewhat good at it.
And if THAT was not stupid enough..... I have stayed in this major for 3 years, with yet another one to go....
All I have done, really, is accrue an INSANE amount of student loans.
Like I said.....
I never thought I was a stupid person... But I am beginning to see that I was obviously and grossly mistaken. |

| school school school school.....
that seems to be all that I write about....
but it is all that I am (supposed to be) focused on at the moment.
I have been working a lot to try and pay for the things that I need (like text books.... which were INSANELY expensive this semester!!!) and trying to save for the summer when I have to grow up...
That's weird to think about.
Next thought!!
Our friend Katie Klump took pictures of us on Saturday!! We didn't want to look "bulky" in the pictures, so we decided that we would take them without jackets. Man, that was stupid!!! It was FREEZING!! But, I think they will turn out alright. Plus, I got some hot chocolate out of the deal. That made it better!
I am adding a class to my already crazy schedule. But I think it is a very good class for anyone who wants to go into performing. Oral Interpretation. I got a funny look from one of my teachers, but he doesn't seem to think that being a well rounded performer is important. And I disagree. I know that I do things that he deems not smart, and maybe even a little stupid, but I see them as very very important. Well rounded meaning being able to do other things than what is only specified on a check sheet, or covered in the classical music aspect. I see those things as very important!! Don't get me wrong!! But there is more to becoming a performer than studying in a studio, and reading the right text books...
I think a lot of people miss that.
Ah well.
I need to stop procrastinating and get some work done!!

| Merry Christmas everyone!!
I hope you are all having a good break from the normal day to day stuff, but I hope that the craziness of the comercialism has not been clouding your vision of the reason for Christmas. My church's Christmas Eve service made me really think... and not because it was very good... in fact, quite the opposite. But, thinking about how the Shepherds really would have recieved the angels... what Jews were really thinking when they thought of the Messiah...
A lot of things that were presented in a way that I did not think were quite on. But making me think all the more about the miracle of the incarnation of God... fully man, fully God, and unable to be less than fully Diety and fully Humanity... A mystery. But completely mind boggling. Anyway. I listened to about 3 hours of Pilgrim's Progress on tape on the way home. Amazing. But yeah. I'll keep this short. Amen! Merry Christmas! |

| I don't like school....
And it's taking too long.... BUT!!
I do like the people in school.... and I do like music....
and seeing as that is what I am going to school for, I can deal a little better with it... though still not well.
I am overwhelmed at the moment.... I just do too much
Not to mention that I have a guy who keeps distracting me..... But I must admit.... I like it.
