End of the semester! and adventures.

Hey Everyone!!!!!

Hope you all are doing well!! I am finally able to write on this blog again. The semester has finally ended and it has been a good tough one.  I would have to say that this semester, my exams went much better than I had expected.  I am not getting all the grades I want, but thus is life.

So as of this month, I am officially a published writer!  Thanks to the wonderful works of a friend of mine, named Rachel, I was able to submit an article about Accepting a Global and Diverse Church.  The article talks about my struggles and trying to do a balancing act between the different worlds I live in.  As a connection to pastoral musicianship, I talked about how we could better accept a global world. Creating a balancing act between different cultures and religion. I think it was a great article!  In addition to my article, there were plenty of other articles addressing youth and young adult concerns and topics.  These articles were written from some of the greatest people and friends I met in my Detroit trip this past summer! It's such a great experience.  I have to say, it was great to see a magazine that I wrote in, sitting on the counters of the periodicals in the Library. If you would like to read it, let me know, or see if it's at your local Library.  It's the National Pastoral Musicians May 2011 Magazine. It's great!!!

So thanks to Mountain Flower and Geek Squad, I have been introduced into Death Note. Death Note is a really good, awesome, intriguing, anime about a "Death Notebook". I know it might sound lame, but it's really not! It's the opposite of lameness. It's filled with wittiness, and suspense. I am really surprised that there was not more created. If I told you too much about this anime, it'll kill the story, so go and watch it. It's on instant queue on netflix too. I have also begun to watch Avatar, the Last Airbender. Already on third season, and it's been my first night. hahahah

The roommates and I have decided to a whole house spring cleaning. Well at least in the commons.  It felt so nice to have a everything cleaned up again! It's like the Feng Shui being aligned up again, and the goodness just flows through our lives and house. After cleaning the house and my room, a lot of positive things have been happening in our lives. Starry Night, found out that she was accepted into the college that she wanted! I just recently bought an amazing car!!! (Thanks Dad!!! I love you! and Still miss you very much!!!) and purple was finally able to go shopping for new pairs of jeans!!! hahahah

For the Summer I have put together a list of things to accomplish. Have you? One of my main goals this summer, is to find a second job. A second job that I will be able to save money with. I really need to save, save, save. If anyone of you know where they are hiring, please pass it along to me. I am always willing to try something new, learn a new skill, and get paid. hahaha. Some other goals this summer is to learn how to make bread from scratch! So any suggestions on some good easy bread that I can make, pass the recipies my way! I also plan to work out at least three times a week, and lose some stomach weight. On the music side of things, I plan to practice piano everyday, and compose instrumental pieces this summer. I hope to get a lot done this semester, and I hope it goes well.

So to end off this very ADD blog post, hahaha, I would like to share this video. It was a video that I was introduced to long time ago and completly forgot about it until now. It will probably the story of my life in the future. hahaha It is called "Peking Turkey". I hope you enjoy it
