Today is Monday and I had a midterm.
Today is Monday and I didn't have rehearsal.
Today is Monday and I drank coffee at 7pm.
Today is Monday I am now ok with the fact that being a messy person is just something I need to embrace this year.
In five minutes it will be Tuesday, and that's ok.

Shrumps, Poops, and Meows
Ladies and gentlemen, it is week four of death quarter 2Kleven and the sun is out? If I've talked to any of you, (and let's be honest I like to talk) the general concensus is that this week has been ROUGH. Midterms came early, two tests this week for me and I feel like I just got run over by a bus. But you know as I sit here not typing this in my extremely interesting UFDN class, I smile comes to my face and I try to change my outlook. The only way to WIN during winter quarter is to be better than the downy-down mood of what winter is, which brings me to the title of this entry: "Shrumps, poops, and meows" you see all three of these things are what you ought to sing or say when there is nothing else to be said (or when you don't know the words to a song, but that's a different story). Why? Because just saying them makes you smile because they are perfecetly ridiculous, and smiling is good for you, and it's good for the people around you. OBVI.
I say this to myself a lot, but if I can get through the next couple of days I can do anything-- and I've done it before in different situations so why not now? But I don't want to just get through, I want to thrive and enjoy. I was planning out Spring Quarter (Woof already, I know), I received that lovely email from SAS the other day and all sorts of swears came to mind. I DO NOT WANT TO PLAN OUT MY LIFE UNTIL NEXT QUARTER YET. Nevertheless it just highlighted the fact that time is flying so very fast. You're probably be tired of hearing me talk about time/ the future oh well, no one's making you read this. But I'm kind of super excited about how my schedule will work out time-wise for next quarter.
Well, it's lots of hours after I originally started this, but I lived through my Tragedy test I had earlier today and have managed to somewhat study for one I have tomorrow in Physiological Psychology (science being my forte and all...)
Also, one last thing before I go, I'm gonna continue shamelessly plugging Godspell until it's done. We have five shows this weekend and I'm super excited about them. The first weekend of the run was REALLY FUN and we were sold out for all of those which was super exciting; and today I picked up my copy of the Falcon and read an article about it and my picture was there which was kind of fun (and I'm not gonna lie, I've kind of always have wanted my picture there). Anyways, before I make myself sound any more narcissistic, COME SEE THE SHOW.
You guys are all champs!

Sometimes in life instead of seeing gradual (or let's be honest glacial) progress as negative, one must think of it as reaching a tiny goal; and really no matter how miniscule it is, it's still something. For example, today after Godspell rehearsal I had all of these high hopes and I really think that I was about to have a productive night as a student. But one sentence into my essay for UFDN later, I choose to feel accomplished. It was a pretty good sentence too, let me tell ya: and hey, my name is on there too! Not so bad, eh?

Middle Part MLK Jr. Day.
Happy Martin Luther King Jr. day everyone!
It is on this lovely long weekend that I embark upon this new blog, and have no idea what will come of it (oh come on, you know there has to be a cliche line like this present in every first post of a blog). I'll probs just post on Mondays, whilst having my hair parted down the middle, which clearly is the most aesthetically pleasing way possible.
Today is good why?
We get to celebrate what Dr. King did for civil rights.
...and on a more selfish level, we get a day off from school. Now, at this point in the quarter as we enter into the third week, I feel like I'm in over my head. Godspell opens this week (which you should come see), and schoolwork has taken a backseat. But I AM SO EXCITED this week is going to be cray cray for sure.
At the moment I find myself extremely calm about the things I need to do.
It's 12:57am on this fine Monday, and it's been quite the night. As I sit here finishing this post up I reflection on some Basic Theology Readings for class while wearing a nice green face mask.
8 million things cross through my mind.
What do the next years hold for me? Where am I living next year? What am I gonna do when I grow up? I try to focus on an assignment but we are so good at being distracted, aren't we? Then this pops into my head: "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34.
Happy Middle Part Monday everyone, you're gonna be just fine.
