the dreaming tree

just a couple of things before i run off to the weekend:

1) i took what will probably be the last exam i ever take today. my final class is done. all that remains is my composition recital, which will take place in october, but i’m not going to be enrolled in the fall. so this is it. i’m trying to decide what to do with myself. first step: spend tonight celebrating. and probably saturday. and possibly sunday. and all next week. into august perhaps? we’ll see.

2) something that amazes me is close calls…that sounds dumb, but i’m not sure what else to call it like, when i see someone on campus who i might’ve missed had i been delayed or left just a few seconds earlier. then i try to guess just how big of a window it was. yesterday i saw three frisbee players while walking across campus to run an errand for my work/study job. the first i probably would have seen if i had left anywhere within a minute of when i did; the second i would have missed if there was about a 2 or 3 second difference because he was driving by; the third, probably about 20-30 seconds. it’s kind of a goofy game, but it makes me consider how many different, perhaps seemingly unrelated events, have to happen in a certain way and time to lead to other, more important conclusions…which may, in turn, yield something else. good thing God is keeping track of all that, huh?

3) girl(s). uh…nevermind.

4) i’m playing in a frisbee tournament on saturday. our team name is metrosexual healing, so i have to go to the thrift store to get some clothes to wear for that. i guess some interesting polos or something. and then the party that night is a eurotrash theme. i don’t know what that means, so i’m going to have to consult someone. should be fun and interesting, though.

5) sunday i’m going to go into the studio and record some violin tracks for a friend’s brother’s album. i believe that will be a very fun time and i’m really excited about it. perhaps there will be some pictures.

6) another one of my friend’s got engaged the other day. this one i had no idea about, but it made me pretty excited for him. and i get to play violin in their wedding. i will have gone to 5 weddings by the end of this year. i wonder if that number will go up.

7) i love harrison ford.
