eek! random thoughts and graduation

as a second semester senior, i'm taking a pretty easy course load (for the first time in my life). although i have a lot of extracurricular activities that take up a lot of my time, the lack of work to do gives me a lot of time to sit back, relax, think, and do what i really like to do.

this semester has made me realize what my passion is. surprisingly, it's worship. and music. and now you're all probably wondering why it's music. i'm probably the least musically talented person in the world. i can't play any instruments, and i can't even clap to the music sometimes if i don't concentrate fully on it.

so why music? i love to sing. i know i'm not great at it, but singing probably gives me the greatest fulfillment. especially worship songs. being in an acappella group this semester and having voice lessons really opened my eyes to the wonderful world of music.

as i'm about to graduate, i've been struggling a lot with post-graduation plans. it's so hard to discern what God wants from what i want. no matter what though, i'm committing myself to learn an instrument. it'll be tough to learn since i'm an old geezer, but i'm determined.

graduation is may 14th, and today is march 31st. it's scary how real this has become! it's happening, and though i may be nervous and anxious as hell, i'm excited. i'm finally all growed up :) just gotta make the most of this last month and a half....
