Lately

Lately I been itching to write but I've been so busy that I've been putting it off. But, there are some things going on in my head I need to get out, so I'm going to run through some stuff right now.

First, my little sister is obsessed with this boy group, Mindless Behavior. So, she won some tickets and a chance to hang with for three hours on Sunday. Oh my gosh if she isn't the most excited 16 year old ever.

I gave my dad his Christmas gift a month and some days early because it just couldn't wait. This Sunday, my dad will be attending the Dallas v. Washington game. He has been a Cowboys fan since before I was even thought of and I saved up all year so that he could go to this game and actually see the game without squinting. Oh Mmm Gee when I handed him the tickets I thought he was going to sprint across the country. I got him some Dallas stuff to wear too but he can't have that until Sunday. Too many surprises in one day, just isn't healthy.

I've been attending some open mic nights in the area lately. Nothing major just some small stuff. But it's been pretty chill. There's a place in RVA I'm thinking about venturing too once I get the courage up to do so.

I'm currently in the process of getting my body Hawaii ready. I use to be huge, then I lost a whole person. But ever since then I've been slacking in the workout department so, I'm back at it. I might even get back into playing basketball or softball.

I just need to get back to having fun, I can't take a vacation every weekend. Although I would love to. Hmmm, more poetry to come out of me I believe.

Oh, and I will be following this Penn State thing all the way through, I want to make sure I know everything I can before I write about it. One thing I'll say though, this is disgusting and sad.

Long live JoePa though!!!!! (what can I say, the man is a legend)

  2. Super excited for your dad, but unfortunately for the two of you, I am a fan of the Redskins over the Cowboys. BUT because it's your dad's day, I will quietly hope the Cowboys win.

    I haven't been to a poetry/spoken word reading in forever. I recently located an open mic night in the vicinity (not local enough) and I am working on getting some time to head over there... JEALOUS you've been exploring some.

    Congrats on the weight loss and good luck getting to your Hawaii goal.

    I have so much to say on Penn State. The build up to that post is massive. BUT, as much as I love football, I can't call Paterno a legend. He is a man that knows his sport, but outside of that, what has he accomplished? #imjustsaying

    Hawaii should be lots of fun.

    Are you planning to step on stage at one of the open mic spots?

  7. @etheralfyre.com- thanks! and yes, my dads face was priceless.

    @Amaya-Looks like someone has great football sense lol.

    @Up- I've actually participated in two. Still trying to get my courage up to do more, large audiences scare me when I can't hide behind my cello.

  8. I feel for you. Being on the stage or the center of attention has never been one of my desires. I wish you the best. I'm sure your courage will grown and you will be doing your thing in no time.
