So last weekend I was a little bored with just watching TV/movies and even wanted to do more than reading my book.... So I brought up my iTunes and re-found the Concordia Choir's (my year, 2008) recording session where we sang some wonderful songs including this marriage by Eric Whitacre, i carry your heart arranged by Rene Clausen himself, and the wonderful Schnittke choral piece, mvt 2. I cried during Schnittke -it is an amazing song, it gives me chills. Plus I am able to remember how awsome and difficult it was to put the song together. I miss being a part of the Concordia Choir! Singing under Dr Rene Clausen was indescribable. It was an experience full of fun, passion, hard work, true musical quality, teamwork... It was one of the best experiences of my life. vocal music means so much to me that working with others who are so talented and so willing to do our best to make that most wonderful music... awww it's amazing, magical even.

Lazy

I used to hate being lazy... I used to feel unproductive if I slept in past 10am.... and while I still don't care much for just sitting on my butt at home I have found comfort in some laziness. Because I can sleep in past 10 (or at least not leave my comfy bed), just to cuddle with Russ and spend time with him. I can also just sit next to Russ on the couch while we watch a show or I watch him play one of his video games. Sometimes it's lots of fun just being together. Of course I still enjoy getting out and having fun, but it is a lot tougher when you don't know too many people living near you in which to hang out with.

I still enjoy getting out into nature and I haven't really changed who I am, just finding enjoyment in different things. Being lazy can also be a good way to relax, catch up on needed sleep, rejuvenate myself... motivation is hard to get back though.... I hope to start being more active once I have my bike fixed, so I don't have to get home from work and just sit. I could enjoy the outdoors and ease into getting some more exercise.

Hopefully I can become content with just being lazy sometimes, but still have the motivation I need to have an exciting life.
