	At home! I'm at home now, the last few days at school were quite hectic. o_o Overall, it's been great to see old friends, hang out with people, but because I don't have a car I'm suck at home. Making some days very very boring after four months of constant socializing. -_-

Be Thou My Vision

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art.
Thou my best thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom, Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee, Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle-shield, sword for my fight,
Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight.
Thou my soul's shelter, Thou my high tower.
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

High King of heaven, my victory won,
May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heav'ns Son!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, O ruler of all.

So I got an album of 12 hymns done in a Celtic folk fashion. One of them is Be Thou My Vision, and it's been somewhat of a prayer of mine these past few days. It's so easy to forget to even pray at times, especially at a college where there is so much to do, and even worse when it's finals week.

So, hopefully you will be greatly blessed, as I was, by this song. ^_^

(On another note, I come home in six days!!! O_O!!! *so happy*)

Currently
The Phantom of the Opera (Original 1986 London Cast)
By Charles Hart
Music of the Night

Music of the Night

So I sorta performed Music of the Night (Phantom of the Opera) as a final for my vocal lesson class. The audience was just my vocal coach's students this semester, so everybody else got a chance to sing in front of an audience as well. But for my song I did Music of the Night, it's the Phantom's solo song, and it's the only solo in the song book. But I have a knack for picking hard songs, the other song I picked out to do was pretty hard as well (a German song, not because it was in german, but the range). Anyway, the performance thing went well, I only forgot the words a few times (slowly, gently and softly, deftly ALWAYS gets me... -_-) and I sounded very good.

One thing I learned from singing this song is that the guy who plays the Phantom in the movie breaks a lot of singing rules. Like taking a breath in between a phrase. That was bad of him. Very bad. -_

Things you do when you can't sleep at night... -_-

So, I can't sleep. So I decided to write up this thing, I thought it was a pretty fun idea. Maybe after this I can finally get some rest. That would be great.

Things I've learned about the south

1. Not everybody in the south has a southern accent.

This could be because I'm at college, but I'm not hearing as many southern accents then I thought I would, though I have caught myself saying y'all more then a few times... <_<

2. Southerners love College Football as much as the Bible Belt loves Jesus.

Everybody talks about football here. Everybody. There were kids around the ages of 7-8 at my church talking about football. My math teacher talks about college ball with us before he starts the lesson. It's Everywhere. Everywhere.

3. “I'm not even going to lie...”

I wasn't familiar with that phrase back in California. It's possible it's just my circle of friends didn't use it, but everybody here uses that phrase. Everybody.

4. “Macking”

Not even sure what it means, but from my observations it has something to do with making a move on a girl that is attractive/you think is attractive. Or something to that effect.

5. There are/were Obama supporters in Cleveland (Tennesse)

I was surprised at how many Obama/Biden bumper stickers and lawn signs I saw.

6. Carl's Jr. Is called Hardees here.

Seriously. I'm not lying. I think it's an elaborate ruse to try to make me go crazy or something.

7. In 'n Out Burgers is still the best, better then Krystals or Sonic

No contest. In 'n Out is the best fast food burger chain. Ever.

8. Even though In 'n Out Burgers are the best, you can't beat Krystal's .69 cent hamburger.

At least I think it's .69.... it's 60 something I know that.

9. I think this is the first time I heard classic rock played while people were working on a house by the school.

Seriously, they were listening to classic rock. It was awesome. Awesome.

10. Old Greg.

Nuff said.

11. Highway vs. Interstate

Southerners call the freeway the interstate. Which makes sense, considering that they're a lot smaller then California.

12. Soda is called Pop or Coke here.

It really depends on the person, but Pop and Coke (Coke meaning general soda, not the actual drink) are used a lot more frequently in conjunction with soda.

This is all I can think of for now, I'll add more later I'm sure. Anyway, I'm going to try again to get some sleep. :P
