Changes…Karaoke talk…Letter from college

I’m changing, thankfully changes for the better. J I am doing things, that even months ago, I wouldn’t have done. On a small scale. I’ve added more than the obligatory ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to yes or no questions in class…In a voice that could be heard no less. I’ve taken the incentive to sit next to someone because I want to get to know them better (and even managed to talk to them!).

I think I’m beginning to really feel more confident in myself…Miracles do happen…[Though I know I still have a way to go too.] And as I previously stated…I got up in front of a group of people and sang! [My loverly sister, and safety net, Raya at my side…But there are plans to change that. *falls over* *laughs*]

In regards to that last bracketed statement…Ordered a cd last night. Not a normal cd though…A karaoke cd! Eleven songs, and most of them are mine! *falls over* *pokes at them* A couple of them are for Raya…As she deserves songs too. J

1.) Should I Stay (Raya’s)
2.) These Boots are Made for Walkin (Raya’s…Which she sang Friday…& Rocked!)
3.) Stay (Which I’m doubting I’ll ever do in public…I don’t think I can pull it off…But I thought it would be fun to play with anyway at home.)
4.) Close My Eyes (Which I’ll need assistance with…As I is only me, and it requires a male voice as well.)
5.) Those Were the Days (Requested by my sissy. *grins* J )
6.) Nobody (Just because I needed $20.00+ worth of songs to get free shipping…And I might be able to pull it off.)
7.) Graduation (Which is the song Raven sang during the mega-karaoke night entries…Hoping I don’t kill it when it comes time for it.)
8.) Rose Garden (Pretty much see #6…*laughs*)
9.) Behind Blue Eyes (Peter’s song…Come on, it’s Peter’s song! *laughs* *huggles rat*)
10.) Kiss Me Deadly (I remember, more or less, whispering the lyrics in singing fashion, in middle school, and Libby telling me it sounded right.)
11.) Lovefool (Orinda’s song from the mega-karaoke night entries…Raya says I do it well…I think she just likes to see me be a mental person. *laughs* And…It drives Derrick crazy cuz it has the word ‘Love’ in it. *laughs* He’s so weird.)

*blinkies* I gots letter in mail today…*pokes at letter* It says…

‘Congratulations for having been named to the Dean’s List for Fall Semester 2007!’

So yeah…I stood staring at it like an idiot for a while. *laughs* Got the rounds of ‘I’m proud of you.’ from Raya, my Mum, and Derrick (Who happened to be here from bringing over pizza and breadsticks last night. Then we stayed up using the karaoke machine…Me to murder helpless songs. *laughs*)

Made a bowl in Pottery today…Only three more to go in the set.
Learned today that Craig from Pottery is in the SCA. Talk about small world…He knows Atilia (Ryan) and Vargar (Derrick)…And that lot. *laughs*

*falls over* The first English essay (which I’m hating how she does notes…But, have to deal with it), is due the first part of February. O.o And, checking my college e-mail, I see that the first Ethics paper is due the 15th of February! *falls over* We still have to cover two more philosophers before we can pick what we want to write on…So far…I don’t want to write on any of them…They hurt my brain. *bangs head against wall*

*attempts to think if there is anything else*

Oh yeah…*kicks cops that make rubbish detours* Gods…Something at Logan’s Landing in Traverse was on fire today…And the cops detoured us by point us down another road, with no direction of what to do next. O.o Bloody hell…It was evil…Traffic was evil…*kicks them some more* Took me ½ hour to get out of the mess. Should of taken me all of ten minutes, at the most…Blah. *kicks them some more*
Better not of been Panda North, that’s all I’ve got to say…I plan on trying out their Japanese food…Supplemented with some Chinese (as I sooooo need some Wonton soup) or course.

Now…I think that’s about it. Probably enough for one evening anyway. J
