Is teh time of ghouls and ghosties.

HAPPY HALLOWEENIE! Of course, I needed to say it. Tis the time of candies and costumes and masks and inceptions and scaries and funsies :) Kids can be kids and so can adults. I loves it. I'm a...girl in a dress and a mask and a cloak, so...a masquerader. Or Cinderella from Ever After for those of you familiar with that lovely movie. My last year trick or treating and Halloween in Lynchburg. Man, college steals so many things from you. But that's okay. I'm willing to sacrifice :)

I thank god for connections regained and the wonderful (some of them) people who have reentered my life. God bless you, keep smiling.

I haven't posted in foreverrrr. And that is sad. And will obviously change. With this post. Woo.
So what you have missed:
JF Marching Cavs winning VA Beach and a lovely beach trip with lovely individuals.
JF Marching Cavs getting SECOND at JMU Parade of Champions by only .5 of a point, which is amazingggggggg, and a revisit of GMU's campus and lovely facilities and aspects. That was lovely lovely. Lovely. I can't wait for college :)
Also, JF Marching Cavs getting their Superior rating at VBODA Festival Assessment and you know :) That was a fantastic performance in general. Yay.
So basically a lot of marching band stuffs. Marching band. /Was/ my life. Cause now we only have one game, Senior Night, and then the Christmas Parade and we're done! But not really. Cause we still have parade and London practice.
Oh, by the way,
THIS GIRL IS GOING TO FREAKING EUROPE. HECK YES. YAYYYYYYY. I'M GOING TO BE ON ANOTHER CONTINENT.
alrighty.

Anddddddd, tonight is Halloween. I am trick or treating. You already know this. But it's happy :) And that is all. Have a lovely night scaring and being scared and stay warmmmmmmm pleaseeeeee. Peace <3

I've got the blues.

The things that people don't tell you about your senior year: 1. It sucks realizing how you won't get to play with YOUR band this time next year. 2. It sucks realizing that you won't get to see your favorite band director everyday in a year. 3. It sucks realizing the fact that you won't get all the opportunities that the band you've been playing with has given you in a year. 4. It sucks realizing that you aren't going to see all those awesome band faces in a year. 5. It sucks realizing that it's your last year and all you can't stop thinking about is that it's your last year.


This is basically true facts right here. I miss band. I will miss band. I feel like I already left. But. I haven't. And I will cherish the time I have left, for sure, absolutely. I know it's absolutely silly to worry or even think about this right now, but I can't help but realize that one of the greatest families I have ever been a part of will soon be gone from my life and I don't like it.

Mirrormask


Quiet rooms,
tucked away in the depths
of warm, welcoming,
cold house.
Bare
but for the 
click 
of the rocking chair.

Window,
bringing gray, dusty
light, drifting,
settle like snow.

One mirror,
broken shards
scattered,
many faces gaze
up, 
when I look down.
Alternate world, 
land of the flat and abstract,
painted canvas
come to life.

Barred by delicate
barrier,
angels scream fury,
a fiery depth,
no more than
locked away.

The whir of the cogs,
ever working,
time ticks,
ticks,
rocking chair,
click,
steady, a beat,
heart,
life.

Thump,
silence, 
thump. 
Glowing calm,
silent,
all away in the
stillness.

Happy revelation,
unfettered comtemplation,
restraints,
no, 
natural,
masquerade.


Just something I wrote recently, needed to do it, you know. I think it's pretty scattered and all over the place, very hasty because I was /being hasty/ at the time. Thoughts? 


Sometimes I look back over what I have written thus far in this bloggity blog. And it kinda seems like I'm just talking to myself to hear myself talk. Kinda funny :)

Once in a Lifetime.

Well. Today was decent and pretty happy, as have the past three or four days been :) I don't know, I seriously must have eaten some seriouslyyyyyyyyyy happy beans lately cause I am happy happy happy :) It's fabulous and different. haha.

Almost done with the GMU app! WOOOO! First college, here I come :)

So today, a happy Mexican server made my day. I went out to eat after band practice with a few friends and I had a nommy taco salad. It was delicious :) And I asked for it with no meat or beans. And when the waiter came, he was like "Taco esalad with no...no nasssing." How happy :) And embarrassing.

I want to write happy, thoughtful things about important things, not my life. Hmmm...later, when I think of something good :)

Adios!
