We've been conditioned to not make mistakes but I can't live that way, no...

 I woke up this morning with this song in my head, and it made me feel like dancing :)  I haven't really felt like dancing at all this weekend either, so that was a pretty big deal.  Wait.  That's a lie...

I felt like dancing...WHEN I REALIZED I COULD GRADUATE A QUARTER OR TWO EARLY FROM UCI!!!!!!!

It always slightly disappointed me when I came to the conclusion that I'd stay the extra year, mostly because I miss everyone at home when I'm gone (though, I miss everyone up in Irvine when I'm home, too, haha so it's not really much better).  However, no more UCI means a lot of things.

It means I don't have to pay for Spring quarter (maybe even Winter quarter) next year.
It means I can move back home and not pay rent every month.
It means no more studying, no more breaking my back to keep up grades when it's making less and less sense for me to do so.
It means going back to Palomar to study the art of the theatre I love so much.
It means being closer to the people I feel closest to while I decide if this is where I want to be for this chapter of my life.
It means I can learn more than the two songs I already know on the guitar because I can practice as much as I want to during the week and not just on weekends.

It means so many things my head is spinning and my heart is singing because of it.  I've enjoyed UCI, but I think right now, my limit for staying in one place like that is about 2 years :P.  Two at Palomar, a little over 2 at UCI, and maybe 2 at the next place I end up.  Who knows where I'll end up, anyway, and for how long?  The point is that I'm looking forward more than I'm looking back, and I'm so excited to be doing so :D.

It's going to be a beautiful day today, isn't it?

UNWRITTEN

I am unwritten, can't read my mind, 
I'm undefined

I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand
Ending unplanned.

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
That you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten.

I break tradition, sometimes my tries
Are outside the lines

We've been conditioned to not make mistakes
But I can't live that way...

school, music, dancing
