So this probably won't be a long post, but I'm here and have a few minutes to spare.  Plus, the weather is gloomy today and I'd rather pretend that it's sunny outside.  I've had a cold now for about, oh, three weeks.  It's not bad or anything, it just won't go away.  We went to a concert last night, which would have been amazing except for my ( Read more... )

So last week the entire group went on a trip to Prague and Germany.  This trip was similar to the one that we went on when I was a student on this program.  We had a few more days this time though since we're having the retreat with the church choir this coming weekend.  Last time, it just turned out that the Bach trip was the week after that ( Read more... )

So it's been a busy few weeks here in Vienna.  The most recent concert that we went to was actually an American group.  It was a men's acapella group.  They were absolutely amazing.  They had men singing soprano and alto and it didn't sound like a men's choir in the traditional sense of the word.  I thought there were women singing even though I ( Read more... )

I realize that it's been a rather long time since I last updated, so I thought, since I have a little time, I'd let you guys know what's been happening in my little world ( Read more... )

I can't believe it!  Today is the first, and probably last snow day I have had at Earlham.  It's actually not that bad outside.  The bad weather was yesterday.  I can walk around ok and whatnot.  But I bet the roads are pretty bad right now and it's supposed to get really cold tonight.  We didn't have any class today!  I spent the day relaxing (for ( Read more... )

So it's the second week of classes and I'm buried in class work and comps.  I'm also buried happily in a new/old relationship with Abe.  We got back together when we both arrived at school.  It's been a really happy two weeks.  I've also been getting in lots of exercise, which I have to say really does help improve mood.  It's just like all of the ( Read more... )

So this is my last semester at Earlham, unless I fail comps (not too likely) or for some reason forgot to take a gen. ed.  I'm pretty sure that I've fulfilled all of the requirements to graduate, minus 8 credits.  So this is the beginning of the end.  I drive back to Earlham tomorrow all by my lonesome.  I've already been stressing out a lot about ( Read more... )

Yo people.  I'm home in the Mad town, so if you're around, we should get together.  I'm actually rather busy otherwise I would have called you before now.  My computer is on the fritz, so it's going in to Dell.  Grrr on Dell for not fixing it the first time.  They barely looked at my computer.  Now it's worse.  But anyway, I'm glad to be home even ( Read more... )

OH MY GOD I'M SO EXCITED!!!!! Dan e-mailed me earlier to tell me. I'm just ecstatic. Really. This is going to be great. I can't believe that I've gotten this chance. It will be amazing. I'm going to spend lots and lots of time just going around Vienna and seeing everything that I can that I didn't see the last time I was there. And of course I'm ( Read more... )

So I still have the same issues that I had at the beginning of the week, but I feel much better about everything. I had a Reiki treatment, which I recommend, and it really helped me sort out my life. Other than that, I've been lazing around the house and reading. And of course, being the good student that I am, I have over half of my homework ( Read more... )
