The One Where I am in a Bad Mood
Current Mood: Undecided
Currently Watching:
So, my exams are finally OVER!!!! Woo hoo!!!!
I am not sensing the kind of excitement that I need right now. If you are not jumping up and down, no need to read further, you are not the type of person I want on my site.
OKAY, you can stay, but only because you asked nicely.
I still have two classes that have not put in their grades yet, so I don't have my final score...it's a little frustrating. Thus far, I have 2 A's, 3 B's, and 2 C's. Unfortunately, one of the C's is in a three hour class while both A's and two of the B's are in one hour class. Why is music school out to get me?
Oh well, either way, it's over. So, I just thought I'd share. That part puts me into a good mood.
Now let me vent about the bad mood part of my day.
So, I signed my lease for next year....I am somewhat not happy about it. I am trying to be nice and I know that it will all be okay, but at the moment, I am not happy. See, my sister wants to stay here this summer because she doesn't want to be away from her friends. That's entirely understandable. The thing is, our parents won't pay rent for us if we are not in school...also understandable. So, Jenn had to find a place that she could afford while working part time at Sonic. IN addition, we had to find a place big enough for me to move my stuff into for next year. Therefore, we are left with a dingy, run-down duplex that is honestly the rattiest place I have ever lived. And I've lived in a LOT of places. Up side, it's half the cost of our current house, so my parents get a big break next semester. Down side, it's just not a nice place. I mean, my mom will get on here in the next day or so and say, "When I was at Baylor, I lived in a really ratty place and so did your father." That's great, thanks. Suddenly the duplex has a crystal chandelier.
Arrgggg, I am actually most frustrated at myself for letting this be a big deal. I mean, it's NOT a big deal. I am not even that upset about it, but uber upset for most people is marginally frustrated in my world. What irritates me most of all is the fact that I have to live in this place because my sister is selfish. She has yet to consider the fact that I will be living in a tenement so that she won't have to be away from her friends for two months.
Of course, don't I sound like an angel at the moment? I know, I know. I shouldn't feel like this, but where else am I going to vent? This seemed like the easiest option. So here ya' are...emjoy my ranting. Think happy thoughts about me. And I'll talk to you later.
P.S. I added some new music today, so check it out! The first song is by Jamie Slocum, a Christian artist that I have just run across. His songwriting style definitely has some room to grow, but he shows some potential. That said, I love the message behind "By Your Side." Listen to the words and see what you think. I apologize for the poor quality, the song was not available on iTunes, so I had to borrow it from his site.
The second song is by Saving Jane, another group I haven't seen before. This is one of those groups that formed around shared interest and happenstance. I like groups like that because, chances are, the members really love what they're doing. It shows more than those who have always had aspirations of fame. Anyway, good beat, truthful, if not terribly original lyrics, see what you think. Who hasn't felt like the Girl (or Boy ;-) Next Door?
And finally, we have Kate Havnevik's "Nowhere Warm" which you may have heard on Grey's Anatomy this past Sunday. Or maybe you didn't. Were you to busy laughing at Denny's inappropriate joke? Shame on you! :-) Anyway, I fell in love with the song immediately because of Kate's smooth voice and the killer orchestrals in the background. She is from Norway and I now think that being from Norway automatically gains you 20 cool points. See what you think.
Does anyone actually listen to the music I put up? I try to include stuff that you might not have heard, but rarely does anyone say anything about them? Do you listen? Do you not listen? Can you not get it to work? Just curious. Tell me!!!
And goodnight.

Well...the music will not work, thanks to my wonderfullicious internet connection. But, Saving Jane...I love them!!! Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em. The other 2...never heard. But, I might get bored and download them...we'll see.

haha, Nowhere Warm - how appropriate for a lady from Norway. :-) I remember this song from GA now...hehe, that silly Denny.
And hey, the upside to your living situation is that at least you aren't living with a crazy roommate who does it on your bed over spring break. Yeah. At least you don't have that...
