Life

On Sunday night I went to the first official Bandette concert at one of Merrilee's professors houses. I sat in on this lady's class one time during the Fall 06 semester. I hadn't seen her for a really long time. Before Bandette started their set Dr. Salono talked about how she almost died this past year and you could just tell that she was thankful to be alive and with her family. That was interesting for me to see and it got me thinking. There have been points in my life recently where I wasn't thankful for being alive and sometimes would have preferred not to be. But to see this woman so thankful to be alive and to be with her children was inspiring. Life is filled with suffering, disappointments and other negative components but simply being with those who are most important to you is what really matters.

Summer School

I'm taking 2 classes this summer. I'm kind of looking forward to them as strange as that sounds. It will make me one step closer to getting my degree. The downside is that my class during the 1st session of the summer starts at 8am. That's not going to be fun. I'm really looking forward to taking Communications classes. My classes right now are pretty bad.
