(no subject)
This weekend has really been uneventful. I can’t say it wasn’t fun, because it was nice to just do whatever I want, and I got a ton done which is always good. Caught up on some sleep as well. Friday night I hung with Ashley, we didn’t do much really at all. Saturday I did some odds and ends and then I hung out with Ashley again. We were supposed to go out, but that fell through because Jen decided to go on a date and she hadn’t found out details about the party for me. Whatever. Ashley was really crabby, so she didn’t stay long. It is a strange thing when she is crabby, thank god it rarely happens. Fine by me though, I just watched “Garden State”…haha. Today I got a ton of work done. Lots of practicing, and homework. I went to this concert tonight that was required for piano and cello studio, and right after the concert I got this email from my piano prof: “First of all thank you Abbey Davis and Jessica Blanchard for attending tonight’s REQUIRED recital. I have grown tired of requiring recitals and seeing at most, 2 out of 20 of my students show up. This is ridiculous and unprofessional. Those of you who didn’t show, your grades will now be affected.” Wowzer, this is coming from a usually laid back guy. Thank god I went! Haha. Now I just have some random stuff to say:
I don’t know why people have been talking about this more lately, maybe because it has recently come up in the political world, who knows. But I keep hearing, or ending up in convos about abortion. Random, I know, but it has happened like 4 times now in the last week. It seriously amazes me the things people will say, or even think. I have been in the pro-choice minority every time it comes up too, which does scare me. It is interesting to hear what people have to say, sometimes all I can do is laugh because their reasoning is so crazy. And only twice has there been a male in the convo. I really wonder if any of these people did get pregnant when they didn’t want to be, would they have an abortion? Who knows. The people I hang out with during the school day, go to lunch with, etc. are conservative. I don’t know how we get along because they are all extremely conservative, and I am extremely not. They are all against pre-marital sex. In fact all of my friends pretty much are, except for one who is engaged anyways. Not that I have any problem with that AT ALL. But there I was, sitting there thinking to myself, I would definitely have sex before I am married, in fact I WANT to have sex with the person I will marry before we actually get married. Don’t want to get stuck in a bad sex situation. Is that bad? I’m not saying I would jump in the sack with someone the first night I met them, but I also wouldn’t go 4 months without kissing my boyfriend! I wouldn’t want to go 4 days… Am I sounding like a whore? Maybe. I just don’t find any of this stuff to be such a big deal. I mean, making out with someone shouldn’t be earth shattering. Especially after recent events, I think that sex should just be fun and enjoyable. It is not as big of a deal as it is sometimes portrayed. As long as you both care for each other, you are smart about it, and you respect yourself, them, and anyone else that doesn’t want to be near it, then fine. I’m not saying it’s not something special, because it is, but it also doesn’t have to be taken soooo damn serious. Ok, I’m done.
We have two orchestra concerts this week and I am super excited. I can hardly contain it! Eveytime we rehearse I get chills, the piece is that amazing. It is sorta well known too, Carmina Burana. It's just a HUGE full sound and is almost deafening, and we haven't even rehearsed with the choir yet. There are going to be 200+ people on sage (its really squishy) and the sound will be incredibly loud. I CAN'T WAIT! My parents (maybe sisters) are coming on Friday and staying until Saturday which is super cool! I feel so loved! I've been waiting for these concerts for awhile so I can't wait to get to the end of the week!
My neck is killing me right now, blah. I thought I had more I wanted to say, but nothing really important, not that any of this is really that important either
