Ah. Another urge, although rare, to impulsively buy something on ebay has happened! Yup. I just bought myself a brand new beginner's acoustic guitar with a bunch of extras on Ebay. It's white with smokey colored hues as accents and comes with all the necessary things to start playing. I do have another Ebay-bought item. I bought a black beginner's violin with all the good extras, last semester in college, as well. It was brand new and in great condition and I'm pretty confident this acoustic guitar will be too.
I've always wanted to express myself in music, maybe even singing a little, but it would be invigorating, almost euphoric, to become involved in this form of art I have yet to indulge in. So, hopefully I'm a quick learner and can soon serenade those few and worthy women out there with my own music... just another way to play the game and be romantic and clever while doing it ;) It'll definitely take some effort and heart though. I've never had a good chunk of experience with instruments, but at least my dad can help me. He's uber good at the guitar and can teach me everything he knows to learn how to play it. He plays a few instruments, like the drums and acoustic and electric guitar and he also has a bunch of "music head" friends that play gigs with him! So, I know I'll definitely get some experience from good ol' Dad! As for the violin, though, that will be of my own agenda... only books can help unless I can find someone to teach me for free.
I think I haven't been very motivated to do artwork, or any form of it for that matter, because I've realized thar at least for the past 3 years that if I do the same thing for a long time, I get bored with it; some forms more than others. So, music is on my next list to try. I'll still draw, which is my specialty, but mostly in my college art classes... for now.
Anyway, I'm actually looking forward to these few weeks left of December. I think my grades are going to turn out decent after all, which means I can go forward in college as usual. I would like to strive for straight A's for all of my classes for next semester. I know I can. It's just a matter of effort, discipline, and balance between my social life and my academics. I think I've gotten the swing of things by now, and I shouldn't be freaking out about my grades anymore. I've finally got a firm foot on the ground and it's a matter of continuing going forward on not lingering any longer...
I'll also take the opportunity to hang out with my friends from Dec. 15 and until Christmas at the Campus Courts... I'll be working my butt off, apparently to some people, but it'll be fun. I like painting and rearranging furniture and decorating! It's just the moving furniture and cleaning part I'm not too enthusiastic about :P Ah, well, I think it's worth it to be hackled and ordered/dominated around by a hot lesbian in charge of it all anyway! ;D Plus, I'll be "living" with all my good friends there. It'll be good for me because I am considering living in the Campus Courts next year and I can see what it might be like living with a couple of friends in one apartment next to campus! Ooh, I wonder what fun or trouble we'll get into ;)
There's also the possible New Year's party at the Campus Courts that I want to go to. I'm sure it'll be fuckin' hot and crazy. Nothin' more appropriate other than "eat, drink, and be... gay" would possibly describe it!!! I'm thinking of helping out by making jello shots. I'll make sooo many cuz I don't know how many people are going to be there, but I[m sure it'll be a lot. Yes, I'm making jello shots, but I'm also making rainbow jello shots since I know most of the party will be from or friends/allies with BiGALA (the organization I'm in at college). However, there is also another twist on the jello shots I will be making for the party. A decorative twist that is... maybe more? Who know? ;) Not until the party, that is!!
Well, babies, I'm really tired and I'm going to bed to get some much needed sleep. Sleeping on that lounge chair the other night at that party I decided to go to VERY late and still sober didn't help much. 'Night!
