This quote is so true. I consider myself a very organized person. I like to plan out my life, and if I don't have a clear view of where I am going to be in a year, I feel a little out of control. Sometimes I have a clear view of what I want to do and where I want to be. Other times, I'm not so sure. Right now, I am still up in the air about my major. English is calling to me, because I love to write and I love to read. That's what English is all about. But then at other times, I feel like English is the absolutely worst choice. The reason I'm thinking about this right now is because registration for the new semester is coming up soon. And I still don't feel certain about my major.
I know that I will figure out my future as it comes, because there is no way to make solid plans for such a formative part of my life. All I can do is ride the waves as they come and try my hardest to do the best that I can. So with that inspirational message, I have a song that just came on Pandora that I think fits. So here's "Show Me What I'm Looking For" by Carolina Liar:
I really shouldn't be posting today, because I have so much homework and studying to do. I obviously don't learn from my mistakes, so tomorrow night I'm going to be pulling my hair out. Ah well, best to move on. :) So I feel disconnected from this blog. I haven't been posting very regularly, and it makes me sad. I love quotes, and I find ones that are so special they just have to be shared. Like this one. I loved this quote from the moment I first heard it. John Constable was a painter, way back when, and he's famous for paintings like these:
Salisbury Cathedral from the Bishop's Garden
The Hay Wain
I especially love this quote, because it has been proven true to me so many times. There have been so many times when I make a quick judgement about something or someone. Later on, I see a new perspective or a different shade, and it changes everything. I think this quote is so beautiful, and it is best to be remembered.
I've been having a wonderful week. I had Thursday and Friday off school (Well, I actually just skipped class on Thursday.) and I got to go home. It was so nice to be home and see my family again. I'm kind of a cat lady, because I just squeezed my cat Sammie for a full two hours when I got there. I think my family was glad to have me home too, which is always nice. My roommates sometimes don't understand me, but my family knows my quirks and oddities. Home is complete relaxation. :)
So the new Coldplay album came out on Monday! I was super excited, and I went straight to YouTube to hear it. Unfortunately, it's too early to hear the new songs on Facebook, and I don't have money to buy the CD, so I'll just have to listen to the samples and Coldplay's old songs until I can somehow get the CD. Today I've been listening to Coldplay's "Fix You," partly because it almost made me cry on Glee, but mostly because it's a great song. It says so much, and it is so beautiful. So here it is:
And it's not as good, of course, but it still has a wonderfulness to it. I think this is my favorite song Glee has done yet this season, at least.
So I hope you enjoy! I'll get back on here soon, I hope. Later. :)
There are a million things I should be doing right now. I have a resume and cover letter to finish for a class and potential job. I have a German test tomorrow. I have calculus homework to figure out. I have dinner to make. And yet, I just sit here on my computer, trying to find anything to delay my inevitable workload. Why do I do this to myself? It sure can't be healthy. :)
On a lighter note, I just finished making my first batch of biscuits! I know, I am a college sophomore and I've never made biscuits before, it's true. But they turned out deliciously! They're the cheesy biscuits that have oregano and garlic and cheese. Yum. Yeah, so I'm pretty proud of myself. :)
So today's quote is pretty relevant to me. I'm pretty much scared of everything. I'm scared of people, scared of confrontation, scared of my future, and scared of diseases (I'm a hypochondriac). And seriously, that's no way to live! So I'm going to try and get over my irrational fears and anxiety. I'm still keeping this blog anonymous though, for now. :)
Recently, Adele released a music video for her song "Someone Like You." I loved this song before the video, and with the video it's even better. I love how simple it is, but it still says so much. I just love it. I don't care if it's going to be overplayed just like "Rolling in the Deep." So here's the video:
I couldn't fit the whole quote in the title, because I didn't want it to be too long, so here's the full quote:
Wherever you are, whatever the circumstances may be, you are not forgotten. No matter how dark your days may seem, no matter how insignificant you may feel, no matter how overshadowed you think you may be, your Heavenly Father has not forgotten you. In fact, He loves you with an infinite love.
President Uchtdorf gave this talk in the LDS General Relief Society meeting a couple weeks ago, and since it's Sunday I thought it'd be a good quote. Here's the link to his whole talk: Forget Me Not
So there's my quote this beautiful Sunday. Later! :)
