I can't believe its almost Thanksgiving. Crazazy in the best of ways. After turkey day, its just two weeks of classes then finals then I'm DONE. I have a lot to do in between, but its more a matter of just pushing through till the end. I registered for classes and got all the ones I need, and it looks as of now that I should graduate on time without having to course overload, which is amazing.
The two shows this week were soooooo great. I seriously love live music, and wish I had the money/opportunity to go to more shows. Alas, I do what I can. Mae was pretty good but their set was short and the sound was messed up. Also, they didn't play my favorite song by them. MCS was freaking amazinggggggg. They're just really good performers and the lead singer was hilarious, saying the randomest things and stealing a Sox hat from someone in the audience. The only bad thing was that they stopped in the middle of "My Favorite Accident" aka my favorite song by them, to yell at kids being dumb in the mosh pit. Zox was also really good, and also fucked up my favorite song. First, he started singing the second verse first, then they had to stop because there was a literal fistfight going on right in front of me and Auds. Great. Thank you general public for acting like assholes and ruining my favorite songs. Oh well. I was otherwise really satisfied with the sets, and Zox's new music seems really promising.
Sarah and I went down to Provi to visit Auds, which was fun. Its good that issues have been somewhat resolved, at least up to a point where we can all hang out. Audrey's house was cute, and Brett made me die in his role as a 73 year old porno director.
Earlier in the fall, I had applied to get the transfer group that I'm a part of to get recognition and funding through the school, and they accepted, which is really exciting. There is still a bunch of other stuff that we have to do, but I guess its really hard to even get through the first round, so that was really exciting.
I can't think of much else, really. I've been doing a little bit better, I guess, so I'll wait and see where this takes me. Its hard when people don't understand my situation, but I also know that I can't expect them to or explain it to them. Its just kind of isolating and frustrating. There's this great quote from a webcomic that I really liked, though, and I felt like it relates: "I just wasn't ready to deal with all that stuff, y'know? But now I'm just tired of NOT dealin' with it. I'd rather get it over with."
