Nobody is ever around when I injure myself

I have some really weird habbits.
Like when I don't want to throw out my gum, I just put it on something until I'm ready to chew it again. Or how I crack my back like its my job.
I don't know how I develop these things, but they sure do stick around!
Eventually I will probably be a vegan. I'm intollerant to most things (sugar... dairy... gluten... corn... rice... Yeah. I'm that kid.), so I fugure if I wait long enough I'll be forced into veganism by my body. I just get the worst head aches.

Despite my successful procrastinating yesterday, I caved and did my homework tonight.
I just really don't like having things hanging over me. I couldn't help it! So I settled for a night of post-church productivity, accomplishing homework, resume, audition organization, putting away laundry and groceries, etc. I feel better.
Jenn, Erin and I met up with Lauren for dinner after church tonight! I am so proud of her! She had her IWU audition yesterday and she is so happy with they way it went! She has just come so far and grown so much since I met her 6 years ago that I feel like a proud mom to hear how well she's doing and about her positive attitude through all of the stress. She is growing into a beautiful girl!

I'm not sure what tomorrow has in store for me!
No more homework or cleaning or organizing can be done here... and it's the Sabbath, so no work will be done anyways... But I have no plans! Maybe I'll go to the costume room for a while since I didn't go today. Or catch up on some reading and stay in. Or go and work on some music in the practice rooms. It all sounds good to me!

Bed time!

January

Okay, I'm not even going to attempt to write regularly any more.
It just doesn't happen when I'm busy.
English 102 last semester taught me that if I'm not being forced to write (i.e. graded on my progress) I rarely set aside time to do it.
Hence the vocal performance major.
I enjoy writing, really I do, but the busy college life (I go to bed at 10) has overtaken me once again. I simply don't think about writing beyond the copious notes that I take and papers that I write.
As for the 10 pm bedtime... I get inordinately cranky with less than 9 hours of sleep. I can function on 8, but that starts to push it mood wise. This separates me from the average college student(my friends all have an average bed time atleast 3 hours later), but it's for the good of the JU community that I am as rested as possible. It's mayhem otherwise. Outright pandemonium. With a lot of crying.
My attitude regarding school has improved since my first week back.
(it was looking pretty bad there for a while, but don't worry, positivity prevailed)
I have no job, but I do have random influxes of money when I really need it. God's blessing!
I'm still respecting the Sabbath, and each week I grow increasingly more grateful!
My Baylor audition in set for the 3rd weekend of february. I am equal parts excited and scared, but I am working through giving this process and my feelings on the matter entirely to God. It is a struggle to hand over something that I want so badly, but I'm figuring I can either go willingly or kicking and screaming and nervous. This is making my choice easier.
Relationships... blah blah... bad JU food.. blah... independence..
I just downloaded a bunch of new music today! Good stuff.
Right now I'm mostly just really sleepy actually, so the updating goes about as indepth as I just got.
Much has changed!
Tomorrow I'm supposed to go and help Lela and Melissa with the costume room at Jud! I really enjoy spending time with both of them and I love costume rooms in general, even the hot mess that is claimed my Judson, so that will hopefully work out well.
I'm hoping to go see Henry Cloud teach at willow also, I'm seen him before and I feel like I'll get a lot out of the teaching.

Sleeping is an indulgence I don't mind giving in to one bit right now.
I hope all is well!

Tumbled upon.

"Never let anyone love you less than you love yourself."




Think about that. Letting others treat you poorly is disrespectful to who God created you to be.

(This week has been very nice)
