Why don't you slip onto something a little more comfortable ....like a coma.

I finished a bit of homework today; Macgamut, alchemy paper, and a little studying for the instrumentation test. Hopefully that test will go pretty well. There's quite a bit to know for the class but maybe I'll be able to remeber what I've learned.

i'm going with the band on tour this week. It'll be fun but I'll also have a lot to catch up on. let's see if i casn do it when my apathy is high. I don't feel like "doing schoolwork" becuase it's nerly spring (and just wait 'till that rolls around).



sorry about how boring and uncohesive this is. I'm tired I think I'll go to bed soon.

I had a strizzoke in my brizzain

So it's been a while since my last post. Some of that is due to me being busy, but could have definetly done a few were it not for laziness. Oh well, on with the post....

I had a great time practicing today. I covered a lot of material and took care of some problems in my music. the best part was, however, the fact that I still feel like I could practice more. I didn't get bored like I usually do!

I have test in Mordern Alchemy tomorrow (actually today because it's past midnight). Hopefully
I'll do well dispite my apparent lack of studying. I think it should be easy.

Lot's to get done before tour. That will throw a nice curve at me since i'll be missing four days of classes.


that's all for now

Ash Wednesday!

Today was ash wednesday; tomorrow is the first day of Lent. I'm not sure what I may give up for Lent but I do want to do something. These religious observances have always seemed to be a great thing if they are done with the right attitude. I want to give something up as a sacrifice to God. I think giving something up that is a big part of your life not only symbolizes that God is the center of your life, but it also makes room in your schedule to do more important things that are honoring to God.
There was a service tonight and Michael Card (yes, THE Michael Card) led it. His music is very powerful and cut deeply into your soul. I was both inspired and impacted. He is a very humble who (and I don't use this term) is annointed. I don't like to use that phrase becuase of my background, but if anyone has ever been annointed that I have met it is him. His words speak truth and convict me. I enjoyed every moment of the service. You really have to pay attention to catch the gravity of his lyrics, but I you do you can be changed.

That's all for today. Other stuff happened but they are nothing compared to what I experineced at the service tonight. I wasn't changed dramatically, but it was definetly impacting nonetheless.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch

Today's rehersal went much better. We started with the second act to make certain we finished it. We actually held together relativley well, considering the low frequency of rehersal opportunities we have had. I really enjoyed myself at certain points and I'm sure the preformance will be a great sucess.....welll, at least the final performance will be.
I had one class today, "Philosophy of Religion", I enjoy the prof. and expect to have a great learning experience there. The books aren't in, which is fine with me, but once we do get them there will be quite a bit of reading to do. I ordered one of them online. Hopefully it will come soon.
I haven't had much time to just relax. I really hope I can take some down time tomorrow; I'm running at full pace and don't know how long I can hold out. Oh well, this is how it is getting back into the routine of the semester, especially the spring semester.
