phantom was brilliant! costuming and set was great, voices were well cast - surprisingly, the Raoul character had almost a more "manly" voice than Phantom (well, anthony warlow is a tenor at best - this raoul was a really deep tenor :P) and helps that he was Raoul good-looking too ;) orchestra was really good too, tho the percussionist deserved yelling at at times ;) (just had to nit-pick about something... hehe)

amendment: and the whole thing was courtesy of an absolutely amazing boyfriend who got tickets, then drove 4 hours that day, 2 of which were through heavy fog, so we could go see the two men have a calligraphy contest :D did i mention it was opening night too? :D hehe. *what was it i was supposed to have wrote? >.< ... written.*

thought of the night:

Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? (Luke 12:25)

(I also like how the alternate footnote translation thing says "or cubit to his height!" (hehe) )

so i am not going to live longer or get taller by worrying. useful verse for studying med i think - makes me paranoid about something suddenly going wrong somehow, but remembering that worrying isn't going to do anything makes me feel better :)

I'm stil here!

This blogging thing carries almost as little motivation as study! hehe. Nothing much on the new front. Joyce is going to enter crazy stuvac mode (there will be silence....)

For once, it's not the weekend!

Blissful day off.. :) Phantom tonight! wheee!

Now playing: Ways & Means - Snow Patrol

Another weekend... the weeks go too fast...

----
Now playing: Dido - Honestly OK

I'm on the Travian stats board!!! wooo!!!

And Elwen's climbing up the ranks... for doing nothing! wheee! man this game is um.. easy? interesting? and i wasn't even hardcore into it! hahahahahaaaaaa

gone slightly mad due to exhaustion i think. couldn't sleep last night until like 3. then the college office calls up at 9:30 going "one of the girls in your unit said they were locked out can they call us back?" and i'm like "wha? who? umph." hehe.

after a few hours of wrangling with STA travel, my flights for the end of the year are booked! :)

kingdom of loathing is also a great way to waste time. When i'm not creating a 55 monk. hehe 3 levels to goooo! or trying for guardian/vanquishing title... too many mssions and areas to go! >< <----- this paragraph is a load of blather about guild wars. disregard if you have no idea what i'm talking about. ;)

ok off to class time for meeeeee

The weekend's gone! Where did it go??

Weekends always go too fast.. :(

The sun comes out, then goes behind clouds again..

So much work I should have done/be doing augh! Sometimes I feel like I'm coming undone (watch the video it's really clever! - if somewhat disturbing :P - i love that song tho, it's a perfect summary of the human condition) but then I remember that "Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me." Psalm 53:4 - if God knows how many hairs there are on my head, he knows how much work is in this semester and even though i sometimes can't see the end of the tunnel, I know he's got a plan (even if my study plan keeps falling out the window! :P)

In other news - yay I have a dual screen setup! (thanks Jeram!) - it's useful for having notes on one screen and a lecture on the other, or wikipedia, or email, or guild wars open on one screen with the guild wars wiki open on the other... teehee!
