as of lately

i have been listening to the les miserables soundtrack. i love love love the book and the play. i saw the play when i was 8 years old and when i was 16. the story is so powerful and so are the lyrics.

here are some lyrics that i love.
from the song:

red and black- "it is time for us all to decide who we are... our little lives don't count at all."

on my own- "without him, the world are around me changes. the trees are bare and everywhere, the streets are full of strangers... i love him, but only on my own."

a heart full of love- "he was never mine to lose.... why regret what could not be... these are words he'll never say... not to be, not for me."

one more day- "i did not live until today. how can i live when we are parted? one more day with him not caring.... i was born to be with you."

finale- "come with me where chains will never bind you... all your griefs at last behind you... take my love, my love is everlasting.... and remember the truth that once was spoken, to love another person is to see the face of God"

a little fall of rain- "a little fall of rain can hardly hurt me know. you're here, that's all i need to know. and you will keep me close and you will keep me safe. and rain will make the flowers grow."

so happy.

i have been so stressed the last couple of days. the anxiety i feel is crazy. every minute and every second of every day is packed full to the limit. i have so many assignments and papers due. each week goes by so slowly. i still can't believe it's only wednesday.

but i only have to hang in there for 2 1/2 more weeks! and after that another month of classes. after that month is through i'll be flying home to utah!

before you know it i'll be home. but until then... it's study, study, study, study! i am taking a biology of women class and it is amazing! it's so interesting to learn all those amazing things about my body. every night before my roommates and i go to sleep, we have a discussion on some strange topic we have covered in class that day (all my roomates are in my class, too.) the conversations are usually very crazy. we enjoy it ;)

i really can't believe it's already may! my life is flying by me! i really want to live my life to its fullest. i want to enjoy every second of life! life is too short. i don't want to waste it away.
