Homework for the Overactive Brain

Today's Quote--"Happy birthday to me, Happy birthday to me..."

Today's quote is a poem, not a song. Yeah for Cassie reading books again! ;)

Yeah, I should be doing a long list of things, but I figured that Blogging is almost as important as any of them. I should probably go read some of my friends' blogs...haven't done that in months!

So yes, I wake to sleep and take my waking slowly, just moseying along in life. And I learn by going where I have to go, namely, class. :) Although hurray for me, I'm going out two nights in a row! Tonight I'm off to Knott's scary farm, and tomorrow off to my piano teacher's concert. Yeah! And just found out today that I'll actually be playing in the SOCCO concert next week. Which is stupendous. Except I suck. Oy, planning on having a long practice session today, and am going to try to do so next week quite a few times too! I haven't really played in such a long time! Sure I filled in last week at the rehearsal, but I did more not playing of notes than actually hitting them.

Oy, time to break out the pencil. Gonna need to write out a lot of notes to self!

Working on doing my PT exercises everyday...it's actually a project in health class, but I do need to do it. My knees have been killing me. But as my wonderful friends pointed out this week, I'm just prone to excessive injuries. Did I mention I now have a random bruise from Linguistics class? Yeah, someone sneezes and I wind up injured. LOL.

Obviously, though, I'm in a good mood. Might have something to do with the sunshine and nice temperature...or maybe I'm just on a manic upswing. I feel like my Capstone might actually happen (although DYW's words about this being "serious" and "not like all of your learning clusters" are ringing in my head. 'Cause yeah, I think it'll be slightly above a learning cluster paper. But hey, then again, I have to do all the work by myself. I won't win any awards over it, but I may well graduate! And in the end, that's all that matters.)

Classes are going okay...I enjoy but I stress. Such is my life and how I view my world. Somehow I've managed to get things done and turned in on time. And I sleep too. Just have stopped eating...hermmm. Not liking that. So yeah, for any of you who might be thinking I'm developing an eating disorder...I don't need to lose weight...I need to gain it. A little at least. Ah well, lunch today was good. I even braved the wasp. Yeah, anyone else disturbed by the fact that the wasps here eat meat? And I mean, eat our meat, off of our plates? Just grab a chunk a chicken and fly off? That just seems wrong to me. On so many levels! But as S. said, as long as we have meat for them, they won't attack us...right?

Long posts? You betcha! But it's only because I have to get stuff out, have to record what's up, since I've slacked on EVERYTHING having to do with recording what's going on, taking care of my body, and yeah, a whole lot of stuff besides homework. And talking to Ed. Aren't you proud of me? It's taken me this long in the post to mention him! ;)

Anyway, I suppose I should actually get back to reading. Yep, homework on a Friday. It's just what I do now.

And we won't talk about what I'm going to do after I graduate. I think I'll worry about that next semester...when everthing has calmed down...or something! What am I saying? It never calms down around here! Yeah, so off I go, to be sleeping while awake, to be aware while I sleep, and to learn through the journey.
