when every living breath was another new dawn


Yesterday night was super crazy. We had our end of year Vocal Jazz/Choir performances, and I think we did pretty well. I was super stressed about it... and for the silliest reasons too.
I've been feeling pretty horrible with my weight recently, and I really wanted to wear a black dress. So I did... but I didn't feel all that attractive. I know it should not matter; however, I feel like I'm irresponsible for letting my weight go! I know I'm not even big, but still, I neeed to lose the extra bumps here and there. I suppose that is just what happens when you're on a strict budget, and buy the cheapest, unhealthy foods. When I go home I'll get back on track and begin to eat right again.
Anyways, the concert went well. I think I did pretty well on my scat solo, and even though I've improved so much with my voice, I'm still super picky. After watching the year 3 and 4 vocal students perform, I was blown away. They've just further motivated me to improve on myself.
After the concert ended, most of us went down to the Red Martini lounge and had a few drinks and appies. There were students from the program playing live music, just like any other night. It felt really good to unwind. Later, we headed down to Paul's for a bit of a jam sesh and video games. Dustin and I also had a bit of a talk, which was awesome, because I really needed someone to just vent to. Dustin and Paul are pretty cool, and it's not often you find guys like that. We all just crashed there, and went to theory class today with hardly any sleep... so obviously I'm super tired.
Tonight consists of a ton of theory review, because I have NO idea what's going on right now in class... all I know is that it involves transposition... ahhh. And then, I plan to go to bed early. And holy toleedo, I have NO classes tomorrow... which is aweeesommme. So I can sleep in...!
p.s. rain on the coast makes me sad... blah. I would love some sunshine right now!
