Music

So I've been writing my own songs.

I've been trying to write enough to put on a CD.

(so about 10)

I have about three right now....

but! i found something that might help me in my lyric composition!

You see, i find that when i am trying to write lyrics i can't think of good rhymes that convey what i wish...But with this new found website I can rhyme with increased ease!

For the person who finds that although thesauruses are great when trying to think of synonyms whilst writing a paper, they are not helpful at all when writing poetry or music

Thus I am thrilled with my new find. 

Drowning in Birthday Cake

With another birthday come and gone, I am once more faced with the concept of growing up and becoming wholly independent. (The fact that I got no birthday cake says it all haha.)

Ever since I was little, I understood that one day I would become a "grown up" and bear responsibility for myself.  Now that that time has come and the weight is shifting more and more from my parents shoulders to my own, I cannot help but feel that I am essentially drowning in responsibility.

The world is a very scary and intimidating place, with bills and job searches and education and...well either you get it already or you will.

I decided there are two main things that an adult needs to feel more confident in being an adult.
1.Learn to drive...get a licence

2.get a job so you know that you can support yourself

Unfortunately the whole driving thing continues to elude me...I suppose it comes with practice and persistence.

What Makes One Educated?

What is it that makes someone educated?

is it running around flashing a badge of education whilst speaking in a British accent and  looking through a monocle?

I think perhaps it is.

Ah the life of a college student...

So i am packing once again...which seems to happen a lot when you are going away to college...whoo!!!
I did pretty good on my grades which I am quite stoaked about.  Now its time to rest and recouperate so i can dive right back in in a couple of weeks.  I do wish that i had enough time to get a job between terms but that is an impossibility.  I'll just have to wait for my next break.

I plan to do some more video blogs and read some books...stay somewhat unvegitablized.
I'm also hoping to make some pies, learn some new recipies...perfect some old ones and just overall learn new skills.

I feel kind of cool because I am relearning how to crochet.  (its kind of like knitting with one hooked needle instead of two strait needles)

Yay Summer!!!

Video Blog...it speaks for itself haha
I'm kind of really excited about this new project i'm trying!

Harry Potter

With the end of the Harry Potter series, I have been wondering what will life be like now that continents no longer have this common bond.  I don't know.  However, I am excited to begin referencing the "old" series the way older generations talk about the 80's or something.  Perhaps our generation will be called the "Potter" generation.  I wouldn't mind that so much, its better than the misconcieved "apathetic generation" label that has followed my generation.  Many who belong to my generation have already done great things, or begun to do great things in our lives.  (I mean really, we read 7 harry potter books for starters...ha ha) With the Harry Potter thing though... i guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it...which for many is tonight!
