Finals are next week. Being a music major, that basically means this week is dress rehearsal week. I am so exhausted. I've been spending approximately 8 hours per day in front of a piano lately and it's still not enough -.- Ive had one heck of a semester with complication after complication, putting me father behind schedule than Ive ever been. also, this is by far the most academically challenging semester of my whole degree, so the good news is that as far as course load goes, it's all downhill from here.

One private lesson, two dress rehearsals, 3 finals, and 4 graded performances are all that stand between me and winter vacation. The end is in sight! I just...won't be sleeping til then. And yes, I'm actually sitting at a piano right now

This is more of a vent than a rant. I absolutely LOVE my degree program. It's hard work, but it's enjoyable and thoroughly satisfying work.

My prayer this week is not that everything goes smoothly, but just that I don't let exhaustion get the better of me and take my eyes off of Christ. I have to remind myself daily to do everything for His glory.

I detest waking up at 3:15 am...then tossing & turning until 4 am...then saying the heck with it all & just getting up.
I am seriously considering sleeping pills. lol (that's so 1970's...sleeping pills....hahahaha..oh my...I am loopy)

In other real news....@ Loveneverfails...strength & prayers out to you my little sister in all you do in your upcoming weeks. You will look back on it all & be like ..."awwwww yeah..I rock & so does God...boooyahhhhh!" ((hugssss)))

 

[Loveneverfails]

Aww thanks iTore I pray you get some sleep!

If I ever spent 8 hours in front of a piano it was because I was asleep on a couch.

Gotta work hard if I wanna go anywhere. That applies to EVERYTHING in my life. I just wish I had the consistency and the motivation. Sometimes it just feels like it doesn't make a difference if I don't do anything. But maybe that stops today.

Guess who's got a hot date this weekend! This girl. Details to come...unless it's a flop...and then ya get nothin'!

That's just messed up. No matter how hard I work. Or no matter what I do in general, it's not good enough for the judgmental people that I live with! No matter how much I say, or when ever I'm rarely correct on something, I'm still wrong or incorrect. It get's annoying and tasking trying to seek approval from these people I call my friend and family. I should just do what one of my family member does and just stay in my room and internet my life away...

I don't want to live with a bitter heart like they do. If I have to love you all, even if it means dying to strive for your affection, then challenge accepted. I might as well die working myself to the bone since I'm worth close to nothing to you all.

You are you, and does what others think and or say about you really matter?
Are you harming anyone on purpose, you know already from your heart what is truth there do you not?
The sooner one learns this below, the sooner one gets free from this worlds traps that you right now are in according to your post.
Praying this help for you to see through:
Things that control flesh:
1. What others think about me
2. What I think others think about me
3. what I think about me

Does any of that sound familiar as you continue to mature into understanding who you are from God's point of view, not others.

God's perspective Brother:
Plain and simple God just love you, no matter what others say and or think, and God just loves them too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So now separate truth from error(s) Ask God to show you this amazing truth to all.
Truth and Emotion(s) is what is in conflict here on this earth
A Train is it led by the Caboose or the engine?

Truth is the Engine and Emotions are the Caboose, hope this helps in your walk to freedom, no matter what your circumstances might be

learning to work with a joy in spite of any circumstances at hand, knowing what you want in the long run is worth it.
So do not give up what you want in the long run, for what thoughts are coming at you in trying to make you go after what you think you may need now.
Something to ponder, for you top not get caught up in this world's traps of physical needs that haunt us all at early ages.
Praying this might help in your quest to be one with Father through Son, Christ

You'll knock that one out of the park, unless he's a creeper, in which case just burn his number.

I was thinking recently how if sleeping was a competitive sport, I'd be good at it, except I'd eventually have to turn to cheating because I need all the help I can get sleeping.

When you can't compete in competive sleeping without performance enhancing drugs, you know it's either all downhill from there, or you've hit rock bottom and (other than the insomnia) the only place to go is up.

Competitive sleeping... this is brilliant! (I'm a cheater too.)

I did a creative writing challenge/prompt. I saw it posted on a friend's Facebook wall (it was out of jest, but I wanted to take the challenge myself) and I did it. Felt pretty good about it. The challenge: "Write the first 250 words of a short story, but write them in ONE SENTENCE. Make sure that the sentence is grammatically correct and punctuated correctly. This exercise is intended to increase your powers in sentence writing."

It was harder than I thought it would be, but I like challenges like that, ones that get my mind working. I've missed writing, as well.

Very cool!


I should be writing at this very moment…

All you need is some time lapse video and a uniform dress code and it could become a reality - I mean come on, competitive eating exists and that's just gross.

There could be a sleepwaking freestyle category. The people who actually perform complex tasks in their sleep would win of course, but man would that be interesting to watch (or horrifying, judging from the reports of people having killed people in their sleep).
