Lately, I've been thinking a lot about grad school, which will start in the fall. I'm going to be getting my teaching certificate for elementary education and an M.A. while I'm at it. For now, I'm trying to figure out money and all that good stuff.
I like that these categories are organized in a pretty color order. I am a loser for thinking this. I am very meticulous, and I have a collection of DVDs that confuses all of my friends. They wonder how I, of all people, could possible display my seasons out of numeric order. But of course, they are arranged by color. Yes, I am a big lame. :-)

I've been singing. A lot. I'm in three different choirs right now, which means I sing at least six times a week. It's a bit stressful, but a ton of fun. I have two rehearsal-free nights each week, and I'm working on making the best of those.

Comment: So far, it's horrifying and depressing (big surprise there, I know). I'm enjoying the writing though.

Title: Milk
Comment: Last weekend I finally saw "Milk." I haven't been going to the theater lately (in the last few years), but this one was definitely worth it. Sean Penn was amazing!

Song: The Time Has Come
Album: Thank You
Artist: Straight No Chaser
Comment: I know, I know. But I'm pretty sure collegiate a cappella will always be a part of my life. Oy. I've been listening to a couple of SNC albums all week. Although I shuffle through them, this is one of the songs that I usually end up replaying once or twice before I let iTunes go on to the next one. I know you're judging me right now, and I don't care. This song is hot.

Show: The West Wing
Comment: I know, I'm a few years late, but I got the entire series for Christmas. I had been working on it with a friend for about a year up until then. I'm currently working through season five. God, it's a good show. The dialogue is amazing.

Comment: I know I'm a bit late on this one, but I just saw it the other day. It's so good! Apparently, the DVD has "Commentary: The Musical." That's right...they sing the commentary! I need to own this posthaste.
