Procrastination

Whose dumb idea was it to have classes during summer? Behold!, my latest list:

How not to catch up with endless schoolwork

1. Who says you can only go out on weekend nights? There are incredible deals on clubs on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Dance til you drop, and sleep in the next day.
2. Initiate a Harry Potter movie marathon. Nothing beats Hogwarts.
3. Remember that useless gadget you've been meaning to buy? Yep, once you get up at noon on Thursday, collect equally lazy friends, and go on a shopping spree.
4. Piggy out on all your favorite snacks. Come Sunday night, weep uncontrollably and vow to start a diet the next day.

Too tired to keep blogging.

No life left after Lost

I never thought I'd say this, but there's actually a better show than Alias. Oh yes, and that is Lost. I have devoted pretty much every spare minute I have had for the last 2 months to watch every single episode from seasons 1 to 5. I finally finished on Tuesday night, and now I'm anxiously waiting for the season 6 DVD to be released on August 23rd...waiting, waiting, waiting. Meanwhile, my life doesn't make much sense until I figure out what finally happened to all the hot guys in that island.

I'm in withdrawal. I desperately need a new addiction. Any suggestions?

Harder than rock

During my time as a missionary, I turned a 10-people unison "choir" into a 30+ 3-part district choir, in a matter of 2 months. I consider that one of the miracles I have witnessed in my lifetime. However, I had a wonderful musical companion and the strong influence of the Holy Ghost.

Why was I just reminiscing about those marvelous mission times? Because around 3 months ago, I was called as the choir director for my ward. We sang our first number a few weeks later during sacrament meeting, and it was a hit. People kept asking me how to join. I thought I was blessed to have yet another miracle in my hands. But fate, as usual, seems to hate me. Today we had our first rehearsal since that day (I was on a very long summer trip), and I felt like crying my heart out. But, never fear, I have come up with the perfect solution: we will keep singing songs in unison, and everything will be fine.

I was going to turn this into an awesome choir. Yeah, right, what was I thinking?

Repentance

Some new year's resolutions are plain stupid. Why would I make myself write weekly on a blog? I'm still tired from so much traveling, and wish I could sleep 24/7. But, alas! I must return to school on Tuesday, and I helplessly watch my last hours of bliss slip by. In the meantime, I am devoting as much time as possible to my newest project: watch all seasons of Lost. Admittedly, it's taking more time than I thought it would, but it's certainly worth it.

So, forgive me for not writing more.
