Is it better to wonder if you’re right, Or to know that you were wrong?

I’m so tired of filling out job applications. I do not want to go back to Hardees. But probably will. Gross. I am so glad I am going to college and only have to deal with this for a few more years. Stay in school, kids.

I discovered a really amazing thing today.

paperbackswap.com

It’s amazing, you post the books you don’t want anymore, and people request them.

You send your books to them, you get points.

You use these points for free books.

awesome.

I am home for the summer since Saturday.

My room is still a mess.

I have a bunch of pictures I want to share but can’t find my camera.

I have found my new favorite thing in the world:

Riding my bike in the warm sunshine down by the river…

It is the most calming, wonderful feeling there is, and strangely enough,

the river is probably what I missed most about this town.

Even if it’s secretly disgusting….

it’s obviously beautiful.

I love this a lot. It’s how love should be.

I only know one person on Tumblr, and have two followers….I’m such a loser :(

Some randomness to brighten your day.

I was walking to class the other day, simply pondering life and such when I wondered; If you have made a good choice in the past and stuck with it and are content, what do you do if something else that seems even comes your way, except you have to leave that original good. Also, if you are not guaranteed you will find the same level of comfort in that new choice. Essentially, do we leave something good for something better?

I believe this brings up that age old quote, “The grass is always greener on the other side.” I know we’ve repeatedly heard in our lives that truly, the grass is not greener at all, in fact it’s most likely brown, you should learn to love what you have. What if someone out there in fact has a neighbor with greener grass. Like really, it’s kelly green and yours is simply a mossy greenish brown. How do you know you’re eyes are not playing tricks on you? It looks so green from here! If only you could hop over that stupid fence for two seconds, just to see…If only you could test your life out with a different set of choices, just to see… I guess that’s life. It is a part of living to be unsure, questionable, curious, and emotionable. I guess we can never know how green that fucking grass is…

I would really enjoy a megaphone

so that I could yell at the drunk people

who are screaming outside.

I’d also like a new camera.

amen.

I cannot believe I forgot.

I am going to Lollapalooza this year!!

That means Rise Against, Tool, Depeche Mode, The Killers, Lykke Li, Vampire Weekend, Cold War Kids, Ben Harper, Coheed, Arctic Monkeys, Ben Folds, and many more!!

I’m pumped.

Sunday/Monday were the worst.

The sunburn.

Nothing from my Mu Phi mom.

The rain on Monday.

The wasp that sat on my folder and kept me from practicing.

Not getting a movie night because I was busy until 10:30 last night.

Finding out I don’t have a solo in the Wind Ensemble performance on Saturday.

Finding out my parents are not coming anyways.

But then today turned around for the best———

You are reading the blog of the President Elect of Music and Miracles (the music therapy club/organization).

That means in two years when I am a senior I will be president of the organization….which is thrilling, yet terrifying, all at once.

What a day. This is what I look like right now. I had to go to Lincoln’s tomb in Sringfield for Wind Ensemble. We played outdoors…can you tell? Tonight I had activation for Mu Phi Epsilon…I’m officially a member! Bad news…we had to wear all white and all I had bought was a white tanktop…which looked great with my farmer’s tan from hell. Also, I was so pumped to get my letters A.K.A. a T-shirt with the fraternity letters on it….I got nothing. I got a book for Music Therapy…I’m supposed to get my letters this week. What a great day…. I’m enjoying a Smirnoff…or two.

I would like just one day where I am not told what I have to do..

One day without a schedule.

One day when the sun shines bright and the outdoors is calling to me.

One day to laugh and be completely carefree…

Today in one of my music therapy classes we did this lyric poem activity. With the semester coming to a close, that means the groups we are working with for practicum will be different next semester, so we are going to bring forth the idea of closure in our final session with them.

So we listened to 5 songs our teacher picked out about closer and saying goodbye….this idea is so fitting in my life it’s ridiculous as I’m going through some things right now…. anyways, here’s what came of it….

What do you do after goodbye?

I hope it’s worth the pain.

How can I forget you?

I’ll take with me the memories.

It’s hard to say goodbye,

It’s gonna hurt me, I can’t lie.

I’m gonna miss you.

All the afterthoughts,

There’s so many things to say.

What do you do with a memory?

It’s time to go,

None of this is real,

Forever’s gone.

I hope I’ll see you another day,

You remain.

I am becoming more and more obsessed with Philip Glass.

Also, I am very upset I cannot find any work for clarinet by him without needing an entire ensemble.

Tom Petty was just blaring outside my window as I hear the drunk college kids singing along, so loud they might as well be in my room. I envy them.

Tour is…interesting.

Been a pretty good time, and I’ve been doing good on my solos, but…

The home stay I’m at now is just strange…

Then mom bailed for an hour to get her boyfriend??

Left us with her 500 daughters.

We were told we could go to the hotel, but decided to stay.

Plus, they have a cat. and I’m allergic.

Great.

It should be a good night….on this couch, with the cat.
