An Update

Life is crazy right now! Finals week is quickly approaching, and I have a ridiculous amount of other papers and projects to get done. Bah! Well, right now, I'm just taking a lunch break, then class. This has been a good week, though. Nickie and I are doing very well, just trying to find stuff to do in Greencastle... not an easy task. But anyhow, I am so ready for summer, although it's just going to be roadtrips to St. Louis, good times with friends and working at FedEx as a handler. But, I'm excited. My writing professor gave me some great encouragement this past week, regarding the quality and content of my paper. He noted my gift for discussing abstract, philosophical ideas, as well as concrete ideas, with clarity and well-developed thoughts. He said he wanted me to take some philosophy courses, maybe a course on logic to learn how to make air-tight arguments. I think I'll ask him to be my minor advisor. Connections are vital in academia. I went home and ate mushrooms with the fam on Wednesday, which was lovely. Anywho, my food is getting cold so I must leave you all. Take care.

Currently Listening
Five Score & Seven Years Ago
By Relient K
The Best Thing
see related

I love this song.

It's been a year
Filled with problems
But now you're here
Almost as if to solve them
And I can't live in a world without you now

All my life
I've been searching for you
How did I survive
In this world before you
Cuz I don't wanna live another day without you now

This is the best thing
The best thing that could be happening
And I think you would agree
The best thing is that it's
Happening to you and me

All I wanna have
Is all that you can give me
And I'll give right back
Everything I have in me
Cuz nothing ever felt as right
As this does right now

I'll go back to before we met
Can I erase the past
Try harder to forget cuz
Nothing will ever be as good as here and now

Cuz when I looked into your eyes
And you dared to stare right back
You should've said "Nice to meet you, I'm your other half"

And this is the best thing
The best thing that could be happening
And I think you would agree
The best thing is that it's happening
This is the best thing (the best thing)
The best thing that could be happening (the best thing)
And I think you would agree (whoooaaa whooaa)
The best thing is that it's
Happening to you and me

Always knew
I'd find someone
I never dreamt
It'd be like this
You've surpassed
All that I've hoped for (and ever wished)
And I'm tryin'
So hard
WIth all my heart and mind
To make your life
As good as you've made mine

This is the best thing (the best thing)
The best thing that could be happening (the best thing)
And I think you would agree (whooaaa)
The best thing is that it's happening to you and me

The best thing is that it's happening to you and me
The best thing is that it's happening to you and me

(The best thing) The best thing that could be happening
(The best thing) I think you would agree
The best thing is that it's happening to you and me

 

I could have written an entry on how I'm feeling, but Relient K does it so much better. :)

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

Greetings

Well, things are coming together nicely as the school year's end approaches. Filling out scholarship applications, studying diligently and still meeting new people have been the regular activities of this week. I'm beginning to feel like musicians are the coolest people in the entire world. They are certainly the people I get along with best. Plus, they actually aren't as touchy-feely as the liberal arts folk. Last night, I went to a poetry reading of Kay Ryan which was absolutely delightful. Her work is simply gorgeous. Deceptively simple in its construction, it reminds me of origami. Everyone can marvel at a paper crane, but when it is unfolded and its intricacies are laid bare that is when one can truly appreciate its aesthetic value. The poetry reading was closely followed by a jazz performance that I went to with a few friends from FIJI. Equally delightful. Ha... how cultured am I? Anywho, I'm going to be late for Spanish 332 if I don't sign off now. Bye kids.
