This is.

I've been listening to wayy toooo much acoustic originals. It's got me expressing things on poetry. I'm new, so don't judge.
I spent Thanksgiving here in LA! In my dorm. It's a little lonely, but, I can survive.

This is when I reveal my secrets
The feeling I’ve hidden for you
A simple crush, I thought it was.

This is when I close my eyes
And when I open them
You stand in front of me
And we don’t say any words,
We just look into our eyes
And our hearts beat fast.

This is my regret
Cause it might be too late
We’ve gone our ways
We’re miles away, you’ve moved on.

But this is me still waiting.
Hoping faith would give me a chance.


JE. Off to acoustic rapture.

The Mystery

We never bother to grasp the concept behind a mystery. We plainly accept it and leave it alone.
But hallelujah for God's mystery!

Day by day, bit by bit. Pray yourself into God. He will slowly unveil these mysteries: Christ and the church.
I pray that this be my experience.

Superstar

"Superstar", Lupe Fiasco

I'm on a roll. I can definitely say I received good marks on all of my midterms. Even before the curves, I'm more than satisfied. It's relieving to know I'm on top of things. Management and motivation.

I'm not too sure if I should be happy in how I'm turning out here. I've changed. I've noticed that I'm more contained. I like contemplating and thinking to myself. I sat under the moon (no stars) for 30 minutes a little past midnight. I felt so...filtered? No overburdening stress. I really like this light feeling. But, I'm no longer the social.

I've set a goal of finishing both the Old Testament and the New Testament before the end of the school year. I just might be able to attain this with my daily ritual. In fact, I'm off to read my bible after I shower after this post.

Tonight was Hedrick open mic night. Hillary performed. It was really entertaining and a relieving sidetrack from homework. It makes me jealous that every plays the guitar here. I really want to continue learning. I need a guitar first though. I'm saving up to buy one. I haven't spent money in such a long time. But I have no source of income, so therefore, I save nothing.

My back is completely aching. I have to hold a slumped posture to feel less pain. I disclosed this to a couple of people and was not taken seriously. It really bothered me. I can't complain, just gotta suck it up.

Oh, winter,
John.

PS. I'm shaving my hair possibly this weekend or next.

Strictly academics

This post will bore you. It's me trying to rationalize my educational path since I'm still confused.
I'm pretty much sticking with Phy Sci as my major. Only of I am able to do it. The ultimate pre-med track here. Harsh competition.
I still have to have a Plan B in case this doesn't work out. Psychobio? Biology? I can't imagine myself going outside of science.

I'm debating on whether double majoring in Spanish (difficult to what I'm already burdened with) or minoring in it. Probably the latter. Also, I've searched the summer abroad program that I'm really interested in, but most of the courses I will receive units in are not GE courses. And the expensive cost, of course, has to be taken into account.

I have priority scheduling next quarter and I have to make use of it wisely. Life Science for major or Spanish for minor?
I'm also looking into workshops to take such as MCAT and Medschool info, College honors, etc.

Am I crazy? This is a little too far-fetched. Impossible, to be frank.
Input, please.


Fall back,
John
