I think there's been a misunderstanding.

Haha. A few of you will get the title.

Today is the first day under the new administration in the white house. Great. I'm not really excited by all this like other people are. I mean, I'm optimistic, but it's just another thing. Besides, anyone who really understands politics knows that it's Congress, not really the president who gets things done. Now having Congress being dominantly Democratic, I'm sure some change will take place, but I'm tired of the mentality that it's going to automatically change. It's going to take years, folks - that's all I'm saying.

Other than that, I'm sitting here looking at the snow, something people in this area rarely get to do. I'm supposed to go to Campbell, but I don't really feel like getting out in this, icy roads or not.

So, someone leaves on Wednesday, and I don't want them to. I'm pretty sure I'm not even going to be able to see them before they leave, which is even worse. But if my parents are going to be the way they are, it seems I don't have much of a choice. I have to say though, I'm thankful for Dr. Wilson. This man has loaded so much on me this semester that I don't even have time to be depressed. Ha. I'm sure that's not why he did it, but it's working out well for me. My list includes the following...

22 credit hours of class...conducting the pep band at all the basketball games....conducting a piece in the Wind ensemble concert...conducting a piece in Percussion ensemble...conducting the first half of the Jazz Ensemble concert...as well as practicing and working. I like the challenge though, I think it's going to be fun and make me get off my ass. It also means I don't have much time for much else, so that's how that's going to go.
