Everyday I wake up and thank God that I’m at Peabody and Johns Hopkins. I’m loving (when I’m not hating it) what I’m doing it and it just seems so complete. It’s intense but I love what I’m doing on both campuses and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Music provides the necessary respite from studying, and studying from music, and everything is really fitting in very well even though I’m having to be very disciplined with my time.

Well, amidst all that perfection today was a distinctly inperfect day. Woke up with my arm overextended (and really hurting) so that I can’t straighten it. And then my watch strap broke. And then my watch stopped. And then Ann got locked out of her dorm so my printouts for my writing class almost didn’t come. Thank God not every day is like that.

Kyrie eleison.
