i know that many people dont appreciate the goodness that is iron and wines version of "such great heights," but it is so incredibly peaceful.
i really need that.
those above quotes are all thieved not-so-covertly from the "favorite quotes" section of josh valentines facebook.
theyre just really good.
they just are.
"close your eyes, have no fear.
the monsters gone, hes on the run, and your daddys here."
oh, how life could have been, right?
"before you go to sleep, say a little prayer.
every day, in every way, its getting better and better."
remember when richard dreyfus signs this song to his son in "mr. hollands opus"?
that is beautiful film.
that is really damn inspiring film.

i need to call vidalias.
i need to call my mum.
its her birthday.
i need to piss people off about car insurance.
i need to be on the ball.

we watched "house," tonight.
its the first full episode that ive seen, and it was pretty good.
i dont think that people took the boy seriously.

i believe in miracles.
im not a liar.
i might have believed him.
he did help people, even if the hero of the story is an atheist.
i hate feeling uncomfortable saying things like this and having to write them here, instead.

i sometimes feel just so alone.
not that im so naive as to think that college could be like the first year of youth group.
before the people got scary.
i have to wake up so soon.
and there are so many things that i want to write.
IR, IT, and art history, then im home.
and im going into NYC with andrew and tim on saturday for a peace march and rally.
that will be really good, i think.
as long as its warm and were frugal.

dave asked me for cat stevens, today, so i think that its appropriat to end with him.

i let my music take me where my heart wants to go."
