SNOWICANE!!!

Hey Everybody,

I hope you're all staying warm. Today in central park we have about 20 inches and the snow just keeps coming. I love snow but this is a little much. haha. Why is it that snow seems to come at the worst times?

This week has been crazy. The start of second semester has been so much fun but it is definitely going to be a lot of work. I love all of my teachers and my schedule isn't too bad so i think i will be ok. I started working in the library too and it will be interesting to see what comes with that. Tuesday i went to composition elective and I'm really excited to start working on some new material. After that class i went home and wrote a new song. I stayed up till 1 am, which i payed for the next day, but it was worth it. I needed to get it out. I will fill you in on the progress of it and keep you informed.

I have been thinking a lot about Grove for some reason. I think it has a little to do with the fact that its march and i was usually so involved in musical season. I realize now how much i learned from those experiences and how much i miss it. I am so grateful for all the people i have met and i know they are part of the reason i am working so hard to become a successful performer. They have shaped me as a person and i owe a lot to them. I remember my first grove musical and how scared i was to be on stage with a bunch of older kids. I watched that performance the other day and first i laughed at how young we all looked but then i realized just how much we have changed. Now we are all spread around the country studying and working on various different projects and i cant help but wonder if i could be doing what I'm doing now if i hadn't met them. They have somehow changed me, whether they like it or not. I hope they know how much i love and miss them.

Snow makes me think about the past. I don't know why, but i always like to sit in my room and just think about all of the different things i have lived through. Snow has a weird way of making us slow down and take the time to reflect on our lives. I also like to think about the future. Even though i am scared of what is waiting, i cant help but dream about a life where i will be happy and that is good enough for me.

Have a good snow day!
