Ambition

As I sit down to write this, Newsies, the Musical is playing in the background. I have been stuck at school even though classes are out, trying to find a job in D.C. for the summer. Because I have spent most of my time alone in my friend’s apartment, I have had a lot of time to think…I’m still trying to decide if that is a good thing or not. To accompany my thinking I have been...

Being Forgotten

The worst feeling there is…you have been forgotten. This happened to me yesterday. I was forgotten. It felt horrendous. I haven’t been feeling too good about myself lately and this just tipped me over the edge. I was so mad. The whole ordeal was made worse by the fact that the people who forgot me are the ones that I have spent every weekend with for the last month or so. I have been...

The Adventure of a Life Time

Part 3: Un Jour de Premières Almost everyone was at the hotel. It was Angela, Laurie, Abbey, Lauren, and myself. It was going to be a while before the last person, Cynthia, arrived so we decided to go to dinner and an art exhibit for Berthe Morisot. We went to a pizza place on the Champs-Elysées. It had authentic italian pizza which surprisingly is very popular in France. The pizza had an egg in...

The Adventure of a Life Time

Part 2: Reunited and It Feels So Good And the adventure continues. So, I’m about to go out in a city that I have never been in. I decided to just go around the block. That way I wouldn’t go lost that way…or at least I shouldn’t and I could scout out a few options for food, preferably a small place where the people look friendly. The French do have a reputation for being a bit cold. I could do...

The Adventure of a Life Time

PART ONE: UN JOUR SEUL It finally happened. I am currently sitting in my hotel room…in Paris. That’s right ladies and gentlemen, I’m in France, and I couldn’t be happier. However, getting here was an adventure in and of itself. So there I was, sitting at my computer at home after many a failed attempt, about to buy my plane tickets. I checked, double checked, triple...

Thought

I go through phases. Like most people, I have my up days and my down days, but sometimes its more than that. Like today. Today, I was doing ok. I got through my french test and managed not to kill my physics professor. I even spend three hours in the music building doing various things. I had a wonderful dinner with some freinds and then it hit. That feeling that comes every once and a while. I...

Thanksgiving and What I Realized

I recently got back to school after half a week at home for Thanksgiving break. As most of my friends and family know, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. Not only do I get to stuff my face full of HOMEMADE food(after 3 months of SAGA food, that is like heaven on Earth), but I also get to see almost my entire family. NOt just my immediate family, but aunts, uncles, cousins, second cousins,...

What Connects Us All

I was in my fourth grade classroom. School had not yet started and Mrs. Langenbahn was just about to start the lesson. I remember there being a lot of confusion between my teacher and the teacher next door, but I, being 9 years old, thought nothing of it. Then, a classmate came in the door and started talking rapidly about planes. I still didn’t know what was happening but figured they were...

I Had Forgotten How Much I Love This Place...

Hillsdale. A place of beauty and wonder. A place where young minds can grow and mature. A place where fellowship and education go hand in hand. There is no need to lock your car. There is no need to carry pepper spray. There is no need to worry at night. A safe haven created by the true and sincere people that make it up. This is where I get to spend my school year. THIS is where I get to learn...

Oceans of Fun

So, now Oceans of Fun is open and me and my friends have been working there for about two and a half weeks. I got my second paycheck yesterday and was very happy. I am excited to get a new lead and also about the chance for me to become a lead. It would mean that I would get a raise in pay and I would have more responsibilities. I think I could handle the job and of course I am all up for a pay...

Expression Part 2

Dance. Ok, so i’ve have never taken a dance class in my life. But, I often think about what it would have been like if I had taken them when I was little. Would I have fallen in love with it like I did with my other sports? Would I have had less stage fright growing up? Don;t get me wrong. I never really had difficulty expressing my feelings, but I have special connection with dance that is...

I'm so Ridiculous sometimes...

I really think that I may have ADD sometimes. I can’t ever focus on anything important. For example, I have approximately 2 weeks of school left. In those two weeks I have to write 5 papers, take an oral exam, prepare my final song for beginner voice, try to understand T.S. Eliot, and take 5 finals…what have I done to get ready for these things you might ask…pretty much nothing....

Expression...

Music. It is my life, my worth, my being. I am constantly listening to, or making music. I love that you can lose yourself in a song, and that someone, hundreds of miles away, can write a song that fits so exactly with your situation or experiences that all you can do is cry. I have had multiple occasions when the lyrics of a song touch my so deeply that I can’t contain myself. These songs...

First Time To Tumbl

Hi there… My name is Miranda and this is my new Tumblr. As you can probably tell, orange is my favorite color. :) I basically bleed orange…is that weird? oh well. This blog is for me. I want this to be a place where I can let my creative juices flow all over the place, like a huge blob of “my life” just throw onto a page. Hopefully this will keep me organized and most...
