Getting back on track...
[20 Sep 2004|12:55am]

[mood|complacent]

[music|Derek Webb - Wedding Dress]

Today was a day of emotion...

Went to church this morning. It was an awesome service, but a little long for my taste.

Saw Garden State again, cried again, thought about New Jersey, thought about AA, thought about the last time I saw it with everyone at home...I miss you guys...

Went to the Derek Webb Concert tonight (Guitarist for Caedmon's Call) and it was amazing! He played "Table For Two"...I was so happy! The song "Wedding Dress" is very moving and made me tear up a bit just thinking about how much I've fucked up lately.

Some people can't see the Christian side of me because for a time I put reputation ahead of my faith. Well no more of that! Tonight I got back from the concert, grabbed my guitar, and headed out into the freezing weather outside and sat on a bench and made an actual attempt at songwriting. Got a chorus pretty much finished...it's nothing special, but made me feel better about myself and my relationship with Jesus. Everything will be okay in the end...it always is.

AA will be here on Friday! I'm very excited! He could use a vacation I think and I definitely could benefit from seeing a familar face!

You're my home

I think I might just survive this week...

Musical Experience Test (Check)
Survey of Music Business Take Home Test (aka HELL!) = almost done (correctly? I think not...)

I give my speech tomorrow...(dun dun dun)...

At least tonight is Shrek 2 in Beaman! I haven't seen it...I'm excited! woohoo!

Aaron visits in a week! YAY! My baby could use a break anyway, so I hope I can give him the best little vacation ever! I love you babe!

Ok, back to this stupid test...shoot me!

Dashboard makes me miss NJ

Dashboard - Vindicated
]

Dashboard makes me remember...New Jersey.

Where did my childhood go? I want to drive down Ely Harmony (speeding at like 70 mph) on a sunny day in my mustang with no purpose or agenda. I want to have no schedule, no plans, able to do anything and everything. I want to drive as the sun goes down, or maybe play catch or swim or maybe walk around Turkey Swamp. I want to be home just for a few minutes...just to feel like I used to. I took for granted my HS years...actually, I don't think I did. I think I just miss them right now. To have an infamous Mel party, or to go see a movie, or spend an entire day at AA's house just hanging out sounds so good right now.

Besides the people, I really miss the beauty. My campus is quite lovely, but not being able to drive has hindered me from seeing the true beauty of Nashville. Nashville's beauty can be found in the city. It's amazing and grand and full of music. It's wonderful, but right now I'm in the mood to drive. I miss my car terribly and I miss my carefree existence where homework and class and obligations were no where to be found. Senior year was so amazingly simple workload wise. College is a bit more demanding, a bit more hectic, and a bit time-consuming. Dont get me wrong, college is fucking awesome as hell! I love it here and wouldn't give it up for the world, but today, at least for these few minutes I'm taking to write this entry, I miss New Jersey. Dashboard causes me to remember...and that is why I love Dashboard.

Damn These Live Journal Trends...

[music|Caedmon's Call - What You Want]

People, leave your name as a comment and I will tell you what I think about you......like you care? LOL...I had to do it. Just do it!

Last night was George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic. Didn't get there in time to see the Whalers. Oh well...We all got terribly funky. "Shit, Godamn, get off your ass and jam!" "Ain't no party like a P-Funk party 'cause a P-Funk party don't stop!" Then it was off to Tara's room for a little "Princess Bride" until we had to go downstairs 'cause the boys can't stay past 1:00. I stayed up with George, Mat, Casey, KC, Jay and guest appearances by Travis and other KC until around 4:30am. It was nice just talking with everyone. I got George in trouble with Heather...too funny! woot! Anyway, went to church this morning and now I'm back to do my homework, which I'm just procrastinating by writing in this journal. I hope everyone had a great weekend and has a wonderful week!

Today is already starting out bad...

[music|Pretty Girl - Sugarcult]

I lost my student id...which means once I leave this room, I can't get back into it! RAR! I'll have to go to my Survey of Music Business class and try to get a new id between that and Lifetime Fitness! If I don't, that means I won't eat dinner today! I'm already making myself my own f***ing lunch 'cause I'm afraid to leave my room. What's even more frustrating is knowing that I got into my room last night, which means my id is somewhere in here, but I've searched and searched and STILL can't find it!

Listening to Memory by Sugarcult reminds me of driving around in my car on he windy backroads of Freehold/Howell usually on a destination to AA's house on a really sunny day. It makes me miss home quite a lot, especially now with all of these new projects to do and work that I desperately would like to escape from. I miss Freehold today...

Where the FUCK is my id?! AHHHHHHHH!

~Love always,
Amanda


*****Edit*****
The downstairs lobby had my id All is well!
