:-O

What have I done to myself? I first created this blog thinking I would update it regularly. At first I blogged a TON. Then I have slowly stopped blogging. I dont really know why. I still do love blogging, and have had some time here and there when I could have blogged but havent.

I'm sitting in the library right now listening to these two girls sitting nearby talk and laugh together while I am typing this. I am SO tired right now. Sometimes I really hate having a Wensday night Childrens Lit classs that runs from 6PM until 10PM. This means I get home at 10:30, and go to sleep right away. I have the rest of this week, and all of next week then Im on SPRING BREAK!!

Both of my parents and my brother have the same spring break as each other which just happens to be different than mine. So, my family will be leaving me home alone while they go to Florida. I dont have any plans for my spring break yet other than hang out with friends here in Midland. Im not really what to think about all of that. At least Ill have vacation from my family for a while.

Arg.

I have been doing an auful job of updating this latley. I really have. And its all due to the number of things I am trying to do right now. School has been hectic as usual. My brother has also been a lot less grumpy than usual. My brother just lost my mom's keys. He has no idea where they are or where he put them. As usual my dad is in an auful mood all because of his job as a teacher.

I need to get back to studying. Hopefully Ill post again tomarrow.

*HELP NEEDED**CALLING ALL COMPOSERS AND VOCALISTS!*

*HELP!*

Many of you may know of "Monday Night's, New Voices" or of Scott Alan. Recently I was reading his blog, and saw that he is willing to help people who want to bring "Monday Night's, New Voices" to their area.

I am currently working on planning one at the Midland Center For the Arts. I don't know which auditorium we will use, and won't know until I see how much interust there is in attending, or being involved. I am getting SOOO excited about this oportunity!

THIS IS WHERE YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!
I need a few composers from the Midland area (or anywhere) that is willing to work with me on this. I am working on composing one peice that I hope to have done at the show, but that isn't enough. COMPOSERS PLEASE E-MAIL ME AT ppmusic2010@juno.com
I also need several singers that would like to sing. This is where I am going to have the biggest problems since I know almost NO singers. ALL VOCALISTS INTERUSTED IN PARTICIPATING NEED TO E-MAIL ME ASAP (BY APRIL 1RST IF POSSIBLE) AT ppmusic2010@juno.com
I WILL GET BACK TO YOU WITHIN A WEEK OF RECIEVING YOUR E-MAIL WITH FURTHER INFORMATION!

I really would love to have this work out! I hope to hear from composers and vocalists. I will try to take some video during the concert to post on youtube for those who can't participate or end up not being able to make it.

Free flow of ideas

This post will be dedicated to a free flow of ideas. As soon as a new paragraph I will be writing about whatever comes to mind. I have no idea what will come out...most of all I very well might come up with some ideas for my screenplay as I free write. This has proven very usefull with my screenplay on several occasions. Here I go!

I both hate and love interviews. I had one today. I hate interviews-especially preparing for them. I love them because it makes me think on my feet (which I absolutly love doing!).
Here goes a new form of free writing that I think will be much eaisier right now.

There you stand,
next to me,
here in this rehersal,
i love you so much,
yet I know we won't ever be together that way,
'cause you're married,
and I'm single,
but we can still be friends,
which has given me so much comfort.

I love you
as a sister,
as a friend,
as a lover,
I'll always love you that way

You're beside me
during every rehersal,
which gives me so much comfort,
and we are close friends,
we share a bond
that not everyone shares,
we share the bond of friendship
the bond of sisters in Christ

I still love you
as a sister
as a friend
as a lover
and I will always love you this way.

There are days
that all I can think of
is you
how much I love you
how much we share
in common
from our conversations

I still love you
I will always love you
but we will never marry
but I dont care anymore
'cause your there for me
and Im there for you
even now
when we are no where near
each other

Yep. That's it for today. I thought I would just let my fingers go at it. And that is what came out of them.

Let it snow!

Let it snow in Midland! It's been snowing almost non stop since about 8 or nine this morning. This lead to Delta College (where I have been attending college for two years) to cancel everything after 4PM. What good news! Wensdays I have my Children's Lit class at 6PM, so no class for me tonight!

:-(

I haven't been doing that great of a job of updating latley. I need to force myself to blog more often.

So I've been busy. There's school. Lets just say that takeing fifteen credits isn't that easy. Just sitting in class for 16 hours a week takes up time. There's always studying that needs to be done. I've been spending countless hours sitting around doing some studying. Then there's also work. I work Monday nights for two and half hours. Then there are the hours I spend volunteering for a pshychology project. Add it all up, and I have almost no time to do anything else.

I really need to get going, so I can get to the classroom I am volunteering in (it's a 15 to 20 minute drive with reasonable driving conditions). Hopefully I'll be back soon with anouther blog. I'm not giving up on this attempt to keep a blog updated yet!

"One Short Day in the emerald city..." Wicked
Love ya all!
