K so. Every time I write in my little blog, I get distracted and I can’t finish, or I lose track of what I am doing and my internet stops working. So. Here I am.
Overall, college rocks and stuff. I mean, it’s definitely different. But for some reason, it didn’t feel like the huge transition I thought it would be. I haven’t gotten homesick really - apart from missing my friends at home. My roommate and I were having really bad problems - we actually just stopped talking for like 5 days or something like that. Then we eventually talked out our issues at midnight one night and now we are fine. We at least don’t hate each other.
Anyways. So. I was on facebook, and my best friend Sarah wrote a note saying how she hates that everyone left her for college or whatever their future plans were. And I got sad. I miss her so much. It makes me so sad that she feels that way. And I was at school thinking “Gosh, she is having so much more fun than me - I have to study all the time and read and practice and try to make new friends while people at home get to hang out with each other and have all this fun.” I was really jealous of them. We had such a tight group of friends, and we all just POOF…went separate ways. I mean, at some point we would have to. But it’s still saddening.
This is really dorky, but my suite mate and I were trading old chorus videos with each other and watching clips of the best and worst of our past concerts and stuff - and we got so into it. Allison actually liked our shows! And I missed them so much! And we got to “Girl in 14G” and we watched the entire thing and I was so happy but so sad at the same time. I miss my little G! And then Liz was singing “I’ll forget you” and I got teary and Allison was really impressed! I was so proud of them all over again! We all wasted so much time being competitive with each other and we didn’t appreciate each other’s talents enough. Everyone was guilty of some jealousy at SOME point in their careers in PA Chorus. No doubt. And looking back, there were so many great moments. I’m sad I wasted so much time wanting to get the solo or wanting to be in the front. It was so dumb. But I love them and I had this epiphany last year between Encore and Christmas. At some point, I stopped trying so hard to “win” and I actually enjoyed watching people sing. Even if it was the solo I wanted.
But yes. I miss them all dearly and I can’t wait for winter break. SWEENY PARTY YEAH!!
Anyways. I’ll update more later. I’m extremely tired. And buttons keeps eating my legs.
GOODNIGHT AND LOVE TO ALL

I hope everyone is having a great week and stuff. Last time I wrote, it was Saturday, but now it is Tuesday! My goodness! Well, I was home this past weekend to celebrate my dad's birthday with my family, and on Saturday I saw SUPERBAD with Josh. It was awesome. One of the funniest movies ever. I don't think I've ever seen him laugh that much in my life. Then on Sunday, my family and I went to church and then Carabba's. It was okay...we had a bad server. But then I talked to my dad about Jazz for a long time and it was fun. Then I eventually went back to school, ordered pizza, and studied IPA for a long time.
So Monday I took the test, found out my grade for my ULLC quiz was really good, then I practiced a lot and went to sleep with enough time to get like 7.89 hours of sleep.
So here I am today, we had women's chorus (which was okay) and then in keyboarding I did really poorly on my graded playing because I was nervous.
So that's that. I had a really bad turkey wrap for lunch, and then now a bunch of people are in my room watching the Office. Two people are sitting on my bed so now I have nothing to do but be on the computer. Ugh! And I never have anything to do on here.
So yes. Um...I am going to go talk to Lucia or something that isn't on the internet.
