SNOW
Dmitriy, of all people, the boy who says he doesn't read my diary, noticed I hadn't updated in a while...so here it goes.
So we had a lot of snow this weekend...like 16 inches worth, which was very exciting. At first it made me a lil homesick for good ol' EB where mommy woulda been making hot cocoa and the neighbors would all be outside drunk and shoveling the snow and celebrating lebanese new year....but I was stuck here at BU. It turned out ok, because the plows didn't work until Sunday, so there was plenty of snow to look at. I had to work on Saturday, which sucked, but it was actually kind of fun to know that there was so much snow even the taxis weren't running that much. So I spent the weekend just watching it snow, very productive. Today I finally had a snowball fight, boys vs. girls, and us girls lost. But che sera sera, we'll get them next time at something that isn't so silly as snow ball fighting :oP It's always sad when the storm ends. There's something terrible and exciting about snow and wind whipping around dangerously. It's mother nature at her best, at her prime. It's the greatest example of fury and beauty combined. A blizzard to me is comparable to an angry and powerful queen...beautiful, fantastic, and terrible, and you just want to worship her. There's also something to be said about being safe and warm inside...sigh. I hope it'll be a bad winter.
Hmmm what else? Not much to say I guess. I basically spent the weekend with Dmitriy which is good. I have a chem exam tomorrow I haven't studied for, which is bad, but I'm not really stressed about it. I'm much happier and calmer than I was in previous entries. Kristin is home again, which makes me happy :o) I really missed having her around.
I also realized how much I miss having music in my life. I mean sure, I dled and listen to songs and sing them quietly to myself but I miss having a regular chance to sing. Singing...it's amazing, I love it, it's like your whole body sings, it's exhausting and challenging and wonderful, it's like flying, and I don't really get to do it here. I used to be good...maybe not the best, maybe not excellent, but I was definately good. But then...you stop practicing and your voice just kind of...dies, I dunno. I've secretly been trying to do scales and everything, and it is getting better, but I'm not where I used to be. I wish I had the time to join a group or something where I could excercise my voice all the time but that's not really happening...maybe next year. So I'm currently supplementing this need w/ Mozart, a few other classical composers, and Bocelli...and maybe tomorrow Sil will lemme break out Pavoratti...
BTW...Sil and I are scary. Over the weekend we both started listening to the same type of music and picked the same favorite song to listen to over and over....w/o talking to eachother once about it!
Aren't we creepy? I love my roomie(s)
