Famous Last Words

I don't know what you're talking about, being under the cloak of alcohol is awesome.  You can ignore your loneliness and seek intimacy without all that annoying vulnerability.  Your heart is nice and safe inside your coat of inebriation.  Maybe if I drink more I'll feel better.  Or maybe I'll just be drunk all the time to avoid those nasty side effects of life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caught myself saying "If only you were different."  Not a good sign.  She's cute.  But there just isn't that chemistry...  I'll give it a few more days, maybe try to see her outside of rehearsal.  ND has spoiled me I think.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have a bad memory it's true.  But it doesn't take much for my heart to remember things.  I think it would take 15, 20 minutes tops in their present to remember why I love the people I do in my life.

Educating both the Mind and the Heart

Things I don't like to do:
Memorize numbers and facts.
Listen to professors rant about economics.
Do excessive amounts of computations.
Derive useless equations.

Things I like to do:
Make order in seeming chaos.
Create something out of nothing.
Be God's hands in the world.
Make human life on Earth more perfect.

There is poetry, beauty, and love in what I do. Otherwise, I wouldn't do it.

And if I'm never tied to anything
I'll never be free - Pippin

Unlimited. Together we're unlimited - Wicked

It takes two - Into the Woods

What Makes You Beautiful

Just having my first major freak out about going to Ireland and leaving behind Notre Dame and what my life is going to to be like at Cornell and beyond.  No big deal.  And I'm having flashbacks of every moment I can remember in my life.  Which is actually quite a lot.  I've been through a lot of crazy random shit.  And I keep remembering more and more.  A lot of stuff that's awesome and a lot of stuff that I can't forget even if I wanted to.

Maybe I'll be able to sleep now...

Pray for me, maybe?

You're So Sweet

It's good thing I'm too tired to cry.  Who knows how long I'll hold out.  But here are two happy songs that remind me of two beautiful friends.
