Let's see, what I have been doing... well, my friends and I have been planning a road trip up to the Cities, yay! I can't wait.. we're just hoping Jeff can come though, because his parents are a little iffy about it. Actually, a lot iffy. But if they don't let him, we're going to enlist all the persuasive powers of our parents. So. There you are.
What else.. what else. Yo Yo Ma is amazingly talented. I was listening to his Bach unaccompanied cello suites and wow. Everyone should listen to these two CDs. I mean, just by listening to him, I wanted to read more, write more, be more creative. I remembered how I used to be this crazy little artist/writer, how I was so happy with my watercolors and how all it used to take to amuse me was a pencil and a piece of paper. I am now going to try and watch TV less. I already don't go online all that much, so.. all right then.
Sometimes, and maybe now I'm going to sound like a crazy schitzophrenic, I feel like I'm two Christines. One is the pop-culture loving, dancing, live in this real world Christine. The second is the reading, writing, painting me. The first mostly overshadows the second, except when I listen to classical music, the really good kind, or when I read an amazing book.
I want more of the second me. But it's so hard to be the second without losing the first, and the friends that come with it.
