a new adventure!
Yesterday I was playing the piano and started arranging a piece. Its a mix of Come Come Ye Saints and A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief, and who knows what else I will add to it before its done! it started out just being Come Come Ye Saints, but then unexpectedly I started playing A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief and it seemed to fit well, so I kept it! This is my first real attempt at arranging/composing music, and although its hard, I'm really enjoying it! I'm considering adding a violin part to it...but first I want to finish the piano part. anyhow, wish me luck on my new adventure!

all you need is love....
I Love....
1. chess. my goal in life is to beat my dad and my sister at chess. sounds easy right? think again. when the day finally comes when I beat them I will be able to die happy....oh, also after I have completed this rubix cube...
2. rubix cube. hello rubix cube, I love you. you make me calm when I am stressed and happy when I am sad. thank you for being you :)
3. yellow shoes. true, this is the only pair I own, and its also true that I don't wear them very often...but there is something about yellow shoes that makes me love them....they are happy, and happiness is love :)
4. my piano...actually, any piano. something amazing happens inside of me when I touch the keys of a piano, its like the entire world melts away and all that remains in existence is me and the music coming from the piano.
5. books....need I say more? I love love love LOVE LOOOOVE books :) there are no words in the English language, well, no words in ANY language that can describe how much I adore books....literature, philosophy, poetry, plays....all of it and more :)
6. traveling. I love to go see new and exciting places. something about going on adventures makes me giddy with excitement and joy.
7. I love to study history, especially the history of our great nation. there is something humbling, intimidating, over-whelming, and incredible that is experienced by studying America and her history. I love our nation, and I love the great men and women that founded it. I hope and pray that we, as a nation, and as a people, will remain worthy of the blessings of a free country.
these are only a few of the things that I love, but its a sample of what brings joy into my life. because all you need is love...
