Not Enough

I couldn't get it loud enough and definitely not long enough!

I popped a fantastic CD in my player on my way home from work tonight and couldn't seem to get it to play loud enough. Even though it was blaring in my ears and vibrations radiating off my body, it just was not loud enough nor was the song long enough. I kept turning it up and screaming at the top of my lungs to the words that I knew, but still it was not satisfying my craving. I wanted to feel the whole experience to be so much deeper. I was so obsessed with the replay of my selection of songs, that I purposely drove to a further Wendy's to pick up dinner in hopes to hear them a few more times before arriving home.

Man, I love music!

Doomed

I was going over my budget last night before going to bed. Word to the wise, never do that before falling upon your nightly slumber. Thoughts of how to finance the next year of my life ran continuously through my mind as I tossed and turned. How do students live? I can barely live on what I make without all the school expenses. I finally fell asleep after trying to make myself sleepy by reading my book The Traveler's Wife. I was somewhat unsuccessful due to the material that I was anxiously fantasizing in my head. At least I had some sort of distraction from my financial worries.

This morning I woke up early, got ready for work, and drove to work. The entire way to American Fork I couldn't push the thought out of my mind that I HAD to have the Twilight soundtrack. Random huh? What did I do? I stopped at the Wal-mart close to my work, picked up the CD, and drove the next 8 minutes in pure bliss as I pictured Edward's face...

I'm doomed for the rest of my educational experience if I am going to impulse buy to ease my financial frustrations.

Um Yeah

Sometimes I forget that I am supposed to be a mature adult and have conversations like these...
