"Don't be serious. Be sincere."
“Don’t just have career or academic goals. Set goals to give you a balanced, successful life. I use the word balanced before successful. Balanced means ensuring your health, relationships, and mental peace are all in good order. There is no point in getting a promotion on the day of your breakup. There is no fun in driving a car if your back hurts. Shopping is not enjoyable if your...

If someone says being a music student must be “so chill” one more time, I will pounce on them. Imagine memorizing a whole section of your biology text book and reciting it with difficult pitches in front of a huge audience. This is considering the fact that all you think we do is sing/play infront…

Had an excellent night. Plus I came home to discover there were mini donuts in my house. I do not know where they came from, but really… does it matter?

Just finished season 1 of The Walking Dead. Wow, how was I not watching this show?

"Oh."
Carly: You're wearing a ring on the ring finger of your right hand... are you married?
James: No, that's the left hand.
Carly: Oh. What does the right hand mean?
James: I don't think it means anything.
Everett: I think it means you're widowed or something.
James: Oh. Guess my wife died then.
The roughest week I've had in a while.
I am SO glad this week is over… ugh life. Stuff going wrong, indecision, blah blah. New week, LET’S DO THIS.
There is a man on my bus who is wearing not a denim jacket, but a full-length denim coat. Now THAT’s dedication (denim-cation?).
If you are a male, you should not be wearing Uggs. Seriously, you look ridiculous.

I'd love to write a huge post about everything...
…except there’s so much on it that I probably wouldn’t ever stop writing. My life’s been taking some very unexpected turns lately and at this point I’m not even sure what to do.
Things will sort themselves out, I hope. In time.

Dear Friday,
Feel free to come early. Anytime you want, really. Preferably now.
Love,
James
I love Big Bang Theory.
Leonard: We enter the dungeon.
Sheldon: You see... a dragon.
Howard: Really? So, we're playing Dungeons & Dragons, and we walk into a dungeon and see a dragon? Isn't that a little on-the-nose?
Sheldon: When you play Chutes & Ladders, do you complain about all the chutes and all the ladders?

My mom's wisdom.
I have no idea if this was even intentional, but my mom just said something that really ended up having deeper meaning. She was trying to finish a jigsaw puzzle and some of the pieces wouldn’t fit together. Eventually she just left it alone and said, “Well, I guess that’s life; the things that you think should go together, don’t.”
How very true.

What a crazy week.
I haven’t actually made a legit post about my life in a while. This is new.
This past week has been a hugely mixed bag. There are moments in this week that were absolutely amazing, and there were some that drove me absolutely insane with how unfortunate and confusing they were. However, I don’t like to dwell on things like that. I just hope they resolve themselves, as soon as...

Sometimes
seeing all the breathtaking scenery and amazing sights in some of the pictures on Tumblr makes me want to abandon my music degree and just go travel.
Sometimes.

Laziness
So I’m standing in my kitchen, and I decide I want some water. I get the Brita pitcher out of the fridge, and open the cupboard to grab a cup. They’re all at the back, and I’m really lazy.
Drinking water out of a coffee mug. #closeenough
