This semester was a nightmare from hell. I loved it, but it also hung me and dragged me by the bumper of its truck.
From my long-term relationship ending, to Jazz Week, I sometimes envy business and engineer majors. But then I remember that I'm exactly where I want to be. Because I am. I love music, and history, and art. And while the idea of being an engineer tempts me... I know I'd be sad doing it, because it's not mine.
I don't know how long I'll be here. I may disappear tomorrow. But if I disappeared right now, I would know that I go to jam sessions weekly with friends. And I got to start trumpet. And I spend my days now in rest, itching to get my hands on a keyboard. I've never been happier!
