day 35

*at the harsh hour of 5:30 i wanted nothing more than to dive back under the covers and spend Sabbath in slumbers...so thankful i managed to drag my limp body out of bed and into the shower...

*today is mostly a blur...so tired and worn. i knew i probably should stay home and practice, but i went with friends to a voice recital and took a break from the grind of ivory and ebony and textbooks. had a lovely time...i've missed being carefree

*me: "...actually, girls have a list of things in their heads that guys do that is insanely annoying."
Kevin: "what's on The List?"
"oh, you know...what to wear and such..."
"like what?"
"...axe spray stinks in large quantities. 4 days and the same crusty gel in their hair is repulsive. if torn between over-dressing and under-dressing, always opt for the first. no, it is not attractive when guys cross their legs like a girl in high heels, and don't ever wear chains from your pockets. it looks like you're rehearsing the chorus to jingle bells when you walk down the street."
"psh. i knew that."

*harvest peach orchard juice. cool, sweet, and mouth-watering delish. yeah, corn syrup is the 2nd ingredient...so?

*played my songs perfectly tonight. had confidence and faith for tomorrow...


wage a battle against embitterment and take part in 365 days of Grace in Small Things.
