Well, I have resisted this long in creating one of these, partially because I figured, like Xanga or LiveJournal, I would never use it. But as college life resumes and people are asking questions, I thought I would give it a go!
As my inaugural entry I thought I would talk about one of my favorite things....Disney movies! : ) My mom had asked me to make her a ringtone from The Little Mermaid, since it is one of my favorite, certainly most self-associated Disney flicks that I have loved since I was small. So, I did so, Part Of Your World is pretty much an accurate depiction of my life if you think about it. A young women, different from everyone else, having so much yet longing for so much more in life, yearning for a world where she feels she belongs. Well, welcome to my life. One of my favorite parts from that song is when she talks about how you can only get so far by flipping your fins and how she longs to participate in the outside world.
And if you know me, you know that fits me. How I swam for so long, loved it more than anything, but got sick of doing it and wanted more out of life. And also, how I would give anything to be able to run and jump and dance like every one else.
Anyway, yeah, I love that movie. So I decided to Youtube some of the broadway play. I've spent the last 3 hours watching clips from it. Let me tell you, Sierra Boggess who plays Ariel is amazing. When I was in Maryland for my doctors appointment during Spring Break we made a trip up to New York and it killed me that we couldn't go to it! It had just been released and :sigh: I wish I had had the money and time to go.
Anyway, enough of that! My new room, I will tell you about it! It's cozy, comfy, and perfect for one! I have my beds in an "L" shape for the first time, and I love it like that. I have a great view out my window, of a courtyard and trees. I can't wait for mid October when the leaves are so beautiful here. They are already starting to turn and I am excited! I just ordered 2 posters to decorate my, as of now, bare walls. They are the pictures at the top, because, I love them. I still haven't figured out the workings of this blog thing, so if they are a little bit oddly placed, sorry!
I've had a few friends stop by, and it has been fun just hanging out with my "other" family, being happy and smiling again. In fact, if any of you are reading this, and you live in Burnam, my door is unlocked and you can come on in! I'm looking forward to some of my friends from home coming down here and sharing my school world with me. At least, they better....ha
Not much else to report, I started classes today, and I LOVE them. I cannot wait to soak up as much information as I can. I love my professors and can't wait to get back into the swing of things. It's weird because 5 people from one of my classes last semester are actually in one of my classes this semester. And then, at least six people come from my 9:30 class and go to my 11:00 class! That has never happened before. Plus! I am in all the same rooms this semester as I was in last! Odd.
Well, to be honest, I get much sleep last night. I got hooked on a TNT movie around 2ish, didn't go to bed until 5ish, and woke up at 7:30. So, I think I'm going to enjoy a nice nap to some good music, and just love my life even more! Also, my song of the moment is an old school Alanis Morrisette song: You Live, You Learn. I think it is so true! Google the lyrics, I think you will agree.
"You live, you learn, you love, you learn, you cry, you laugh, you learn".
