Life Update

Class: Still stressful but getting better a little at a time. I might slap the next person who talks about how easy GAs have it though.

 

Work: I actually have WORK to do now, but I'm kind of frustrated . . . I feel like I never do something right the first time. I'm praying about it and trying to figure out how to make this work. I don't really understand their expectations though, and when I talked to my supervisor about it, she tried to explain and didn't make any sense. Still confused. The thing is that no one really knows what the expectations for this position ARE. So . . .

 

Social life: Slightly more existent than a month ago. Meaning I actually see people outside of class and work now. It's a great new concept for me.

 

Violin: I'm not taking lessons next semester and I think orchestra is pretty much out of reach forever for me. My hands hurt too much. I've already had my cry about it. I'm just never going to play at a professional level again. Imagine being suffocated slowly and that's what this feels like for me. Horrible, isn't it. Yes, I'm really upset.

 

Voice/Choir: I may be taking voice lessons next semester. We shall see. I'm taking choir again, but if they put me in Lyric next fall I'm going to drop it. I'm not doing it for another whole year if I'm not going to move up. I'm here to advance in musicianship, not take up space. If I'm not getting anywhere, what's the point?

 

Church: I haven't been much this month because of campus church 2x, and then I was away one weekend, and now I'm sick. Hopefully they won't forget my name by the time I get to go back. I do love TBC.

 

Devos: Just hit the New Testament. I tell you what, reading about Jesus is so much sweeter after all the downer prophets:) I mean, he's pretty stellar anyway. But in contrast to the rigidity of the Law, the freedom he offered really stands out. It's pretty incredible what he's done for us.

 

And that's about it!
