If Only I Could Get My Words on Paper...
My mind has been racing for a while now---yet, everytime I sit down and try to express myself the words just get all jumbled and I can't say anything! Maybe I should try in Spanish...I can think better in Spanish, and better say what I want instead of trying to skirt around things.

*Am loving Dawson Orchestra. Having that opportunity has been such a blessing to me these past few years. I love having somewhere to play---and playing for church is one of the most important things in my life. I can not explain how much it means to me to be able to express the love of God through music---even if it is whole notes or whatever...it means something. Have had several nice talks with Big Dave (my orchestra grandfather), and am getting to know all those I work with in the Music Suite much better; it's just amazing how much it means to me---how much these people and serving a church mean to me; We're doing Amazing Love on Sunday (my FAVORITE thing we've ever done). It makes me cry every time---it's so powerful, and I truly am moved. We are also starting and Orchestra Sunday School---which I am very thrilled about. I haven't been able to attend Sunday School in so long---and I really feel badly about that. This will be perfect for me--and will help me get back and get involved again in the church.
*Delta Omicron has started off the semester WONDERFULLY!!! I am so blessed to be in an organization with such amazing girls. They really inspire me every day. I'm especially enjoying getting to know them better, especially those who are generally more quiet. We sang at the Braves last Sunday (which was SOOO cool---I definitely smiled and waved at Chipper Jones ;) ) They all have such wonderful ideas---I think we can really have a GREAT year ahead of us!
*Random: LOVE Dove Night Body Wash----it is the most amazing thing there is. It makes me so calm and relaxed....and smells amazing! :)
*Very involved in Band---but how is that any different? :) Playing sousaphone in marching band, which I'll admit I have kind of missed--just not the extra weight and random sore anatomy parts. Have almost lost something valuable several times... We have the most amazing freshman class there is...period! I love them!!!!! And of course, I have some of the most wonderful guys there are in my Low Brass---love them too!
*I don't know when it all changed, but apparently it did. I wish people could better understand me, and I wish I could better understand myself. I wish people would understand my passion for service and helping---and that sometimes I need a hug or a kind word, not chastising. I wish people would open their minds and see how much is out there---and how much they could accomplish by joining together.
*I have to learn patience and understanding. I have to accept the fact that I really have no control over my own timetable of my life. Thats' very hard for me to do---I'm a person who really likes to steer their own ship. I have so many ideas and thoughts for my life---and at the same time I have no idea what I want or need or plan. It seems so obvious to several...but not me. An old friend spoke to me the other day about how 'independent' I was---and I almost laughed in their face. I hope to gain that trait as well.
*I have to learn to let go. Just let it all go. Maybe I will...
*I miss them already...
