Isn't it funny...
…how life and love can completely catch you by surprise? I thought I knew what I wanted. I thought I was firmly set on what I told myself was the most flawless and best course of action. It took me a more than a month to think about it and decide upon it. And in less than a week, I can already feel my resolve beginning to crumble.

I take comfort in knowing that even when tragedy strikes, in its wake new life blossoms.

Taking Your Breath Away
You know that feeling you get when you practice a piece slowly and methodically, and it’s nice and all, but just so slow? And then once you get all the right notes down, you play it at its normal speed and hear how it’s supposed to sound…and it’s so beautiful that it just takes your breath away long before the last notes are played. Brahms Piano Trio in B. Yep. I love the...

Commitments
Over the past few weeks, I’ve experienced first-hand just what a hugely negative impact a significant other can do to a person’s work ethic, especially when that person’s work ethic is just so much higher than that of their significant others’. And in light of that knowledge, I can safely say that, if I do ever happen to like someone and they happen to like me back, the...

The most ridiculously awesome reblog I've ever...
brassman42: iamrevival-blog: I talk to God and I’m all like…. And then satan tries to annoy me and I’m all like …  And he tells me I am not worth anything. I believe him and I go all… And then I think remember how amazing God is and I’m all like… Then God is like BAM ‘feel my presence’ and I’m all like… lol God is so good, Carlton just had to share it with the world...

Please be with me in the morning and help me to be strong. I apologize that I have to pay my respects a bit later, but I’ll be there in spirit for the time being. I’ll keep my angel especially close to me today. And please listen as I go through my rehearsals later today. I’ve dedicated one of the pieces to you. I hope you enjoy it up there. Rest in peace, my dear friend.

The Art of Cooking, Baking, and Song
It wasn’t until I made those oatmeal yucks and lemon squares with James and AJ that I realized how much I had missed cooking and baking. I used to cook every day and bake every weekend, but then I got so busy that I eventually stopped baking, and slowly stopped cooking as well. This past weekend, I revisited the kitchen every single night, and it was like encountering an old friend that I...

I think I can speak for most musicians on this matter. Unless it’s something important, DON’T FUCKING INTERRUPT ME WHILE I’M PRACTICING OR REHEARSING. There’s nothing more annoying then being in the midst of a piece and suddenly having my concentration broken just because someone wants to show me something funny or talk to me about something completely unimportant that...

Joy
I’m on the verge of screaming and jumping up and down right now - I’m just SO SO happy. Three of the many things I’ve been praying to come true since the middle of fall quarter have just come true in one fell swoop of fate. Lucky me, to have been in the right place at the right time and to have said the right thing at the exact moment that I did, or else none of this would have...

Exhausted
This is what happens when I stay up late to chat with friends on a day that I have a 9 am class… …but nevertheless, today is looking good so far.

Happiness
Because yes, it seems like taekwondo has really helped me to release much of the emotional baggage I was carrying around. I hurt in places where I never knew I had muscle and it burns to move at all. But regardless, I woke up content for the first time in weeks. And my mood went from content to giddily glowingly happy because of today’s events! Great times with newly-made friends, amazing...

Back In Action
For the first time since Spring 2010, I donned my taekwondo uniform and tied my purple belt snug around my waist. My uniform is now too large for my thinner frame, and the belt is too long. But despite the bagginess of my uniform, it just felt so right. I’m thankful for many things the class has given and taught me, from honor and respect, to strength, athleticism, and endurance. Today,...

Oops
Just exactly what have I gotten myself into? This isn’t just a crush or an obsession anymore. This is a full-blown, I-really-like-you-and-I-want-to-be-with-you kind of attraction. The more I think about him and talk about him, the more intense it gets. People keep saying “you never know what might happen”, but I’m pretty sure I do. Nothing’s going to happen. And it...

Busy Busy Day...
Thank goodness school has started again. As much as I dislike some of my classes this quarter, I’m glad to be busy with work, rehearsals, practicing, classes, and projects once more. Distractions - YAY!

Emotional Baggage
I miss him so much. There’s not a day that goes by where I don’t think about all the memories we’ve made, all the talks we’ve had, all the discussions about our dreams and hopes for the future. I see things that remind me of him and bring up happy memory after happy memory. I listen to the radio and I remember a story behind each song. I remember the summer of my life - we...

5 things! (taken from Jake!)
5 Facts about yourself: I steal 3D glasses from movie theaters. I’m lactose-intolerant and I love ice cream and milkshakes. I’ve had a Neopets account since I was in the 4th grade and I still use it today. I could eat black beans on rice all day, except that beans make me burp excessively. Whenever I see the word “pens”, my brain automatically adds an “i”...
