I'm back I think


Listening to: Celia - Tom Grant

If you like listening to piano solos, listen to Tom Grant. His songs are so beautiful and smooth. You know when someone plays masterfully once you feel the tug of every note in your "heart".

Miami was fun.It was strange to be there after such a long time, though. I almost thought the place was too empty. I kept on thinking, where are all the people? Because I live in a city where there's always people out and about, especially on foot, which is a rarity in the US I guess.

Sadly I could not enjoy Miami as much as I wanted to. We went to do our shopping mostly, and occasionally we went to a restaurant, but a lot of it was expensive. I was raining a lot as well, but thankfully it was only for an hour or two. I also got to the visit the college I was interested in (Miami Dade College), and by doing so I ended up asking for papers for another college (World School of the Arts), which is a parter of the of the other college.

I'm going to have to do a 10-20 page portfolio, and send it in hopefully by October or November. Unfortunately there are only so many dates available, so I'm going to have to call in and make an "appointment", I think... There's also the general application form to send in as well. I still have to fill that up.

I'm trying to have myself draw something for the portfolio without thinking to much about how it turns out (the drawing). I guess I'm nervous because I'm not the most talented in all the areas, and now I wish I had more practice.

I'm really tired, and for some reason, I'm not in a very good mood right now. So I'm going to take a shower now and hope that I don't wake up from my dad coming back.

wooow!! You're back!!! holy schmoly! Nice to have you back. My blog is kind of inactive at the moment, too. Seeing you back encourages ME to be back.

I am glad you are checking out that college in FL. I hope Jahnava and I can come visit you! You are starting this fall? Wow, that is so soon. How exciting! No wonder you are nervous, but like you said - don't overthink it. Just do your best.

Draw something that really intrigues you. Or something different. Or even just something simple.

You are into Sims, huh? One of my schoolfriends loves those games. I haven't played 'em much, because then I'd become obsessed, I think, haha. So I stick to Sim Park and Msyt and Carmen Sandiego. :D Although, I haven't been playing games much...:/ I miss it.

Good luck with all that school paperwork!
