Today, I decided to take Jeremiah's advice, and I woke up.

Normally before class, I sleep as long as I can until it's absolutely necessary for me to get up. Today, I woke up at 6:30, and took the time to not only work out, but shower, have breakfast, play on the computer a bit, and make myself a healthy lunch. It was this crazy awesome feeling of productiveness even though I didn't get anything necessary done. It's like I was being productive for myself. I don't do much for myself very often no matter how much I say I do, so this was a very nice change.

I think I woke up in more ways than one, though. I feel energized, and I have this new commitment and expectation on myself to get shit done. I'm gonna finish painting my apartment today, and I think I might rearrange my bedroom. I've already scheduled a day over Spring Break for Spring Cleaning, and I'm definitely all up for practicing and muscling through the horrid ranges on my french horn. Maybe soon I'll begin to chip away the grime that's not only in my french horn playing, but in my mind and my body. I'm ready to really start new and take a fresh breath of air.
