Hey guys, I’m sort of freaking out. I just learned that I have to play a trumpet solo in less than an hour. So… if I never post again, you’ll know why.

We’re done performing. I think we did good. I feel gross now though cause it’s such a high-energy show. Critique was… fine. It was interesting. The judge was fricking confusing lol.

im eating lunch rn, and I feel like I’m breathing fire because this chicken sandwich is SO SPICY. MY MOUTH IS LAVA. 

I also have a donut. And skittles. And a smoothie  so yep. I can’t wait to see some other groups, take a long nap (I’ve already been awake for 8 hours), and attend awards and watch finals ofc.

 

SHOW CHOIR COMP DAY!!!!

I’ve already been awake for 4 hours (woke up at 3) and I’m SO EXCITED. I’m riding the bus with my bestie and it’s a blast. 

Y'all Liz is in my brainnnnnnn

And so is Iennnnnnnnnnn

And they're sufferinnggggg

AND IT'S SO FUNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

And um I just want to say I love y'all, and good can come from all days, because there is never a day where God is not with you.

It is with great pleasure that I announce that this post has reached 17 reputation points, giving it a yellow thingy around it and the word "Popular" right next to it.

*bows*

And so, with Kaladin on her back and Syl zipping by with the fit of the giggles, Rainbowdash will ride into the sunset of Stormlight Five while the Keepers of the Coppermind are screaming in the background, trying to fit it into the continuity somehow.

Huzzah!

EDIT: I had the wrong link LOL. fixed it.

Anyone if you see this please pray for Stick tonight. Please pray.

She's struggling greatly tonight and prayers and love and well wishes, whatever you can give, please do.

And please love those around you, the world is full of enough pain and self hate as it is. There's no reason to add to it. You never know what someone else is going through and how a kind or mean word can shape the rest of their life.

Anybody else really want a fully sized golden doodle?

Ouch headache.

Do y'all have those days where you're like there but you're like not actually THERE? that's me rn  I've lowkey been absent all day. actually it ended up having a funny affect lol imma tell you a story (i'm just gonna copy/paste it)

I was walking into the spanish hall and i wasn’t rlly paying attention cuz i’ve been kinda off today and anyway that’s not the point so i’m walking into the hall and i try to go around this girl but this guy on the other side of her like ends up slamming into me and I don’t say anything i was just thinking like “okay that was awkward and owww” and then he goes (like ten seconds later) “my bad” and it’s my frickin guy friend xDDDDDD so i punched him. then I walked him to his class and we talked a bit but like so weird and the fact that i didn’t even look at him when he ran into me is even weirder. he does that a lot actually so i shoulda known xD or he tries to. Usually i dodge. anyways.

Yup. THat's my day so far. i also am lowkey sick and walked home with four metric tons of snow in my shoes in the -8 degree weather, so that totally helped my cold lol. to anyone who's having a rough day, I gotchu and i feel u. 

for intro to business class we're making hypothetical food trucks for like a business right and  mine is a breakfast truck breakfast, bakery, and comfort food. best thing ever. anyways imma go lay down and see if my headache will go away. see y'all later and so sorry for the absolute mess this SU is love y'all

Alright, student teaching update!

Alright to all you high schoolers out there, y'all are great and y'all are worth it, but y'all are exhausting. Turns out that managing a class of 20-30 for hours on end takes a significant chunk of your brain power. You also have the potential to be the nicest, funniest, and most driven people on the planet. Use your strengths!

Anyway, I'm gonna be teaching my first lesson tomorrow on calorimetry and heat transfer, so wish me luck!

(PS for the rest of the day I'm pretty much just writing essay and cleaning and doing musics so if you ping I'll probably respond. Going to bed around 9 CST though so keep that in mind.)

Why am I so much more productive when I have a snow day cause I literally can’t make it to school? (My school didn’t cancel but I couldn’t get out of my house and on the roads- they didn’t have a delay either-)

Like I’m sitting here vibing to anime and doing my math homework- like this is so chill. 
 

If anyone wants to just chill with me or something I’m here XD

I will be starting my next miniature tomorrow. I am going to leave it up to you guys to decide on what I paint. The options are

Vail, Nale, Venli, Taravangian, Moash, or Teft

Let me know who you want to see next

Not my best piece ever, but I finally finished it lol

 

 

Sketch is done! Now comes the fun part

 

*in Monster’s Inc Abominable Snowman voice*
Welcome to the Midwest!

First things first, new profile pic, yeah!!

second cat

Third, sorry I haven’t been on much, have been busy and traveling. 

Fourth. I AM IN WASHINGTON!! My parent moved up here so now I get to spend Christmas in this beautiful state.

Fifth, I finished “Sunlit Man” and it was so good, with that all I have to do is read white sands and I am up to date with the Cosmere 

Six and finally I watch the Percy Jackson episodes and the Monk movie and loved both

All right, the fact that here and there don't rhyme is making me kind of angry at the moment.

I saw you like Phineas and Ferb, and I found this on Pinterest. Enjoy. 

I don’t care if it takes me all night. I will finish painting Sylphrena( the Honored Daughter, a splinter of Honor, spren of storm blessed)

any music suggestion to keep me going?

I just wanted to check in on every one, but specifically @Shardwatcher01 and @Edema Rue, there were over 150 car crashes last night in the salt lake area alone and I know you guys are in Utah. Just hopping yall are right. Along with everyone else. Please drive safe

Slide another plate

Onto the bar

That I struggle to lift.

Add another ten,

Twenty,

Thirty,

Forty.

I’ll get through it.

 

Heavier weight,

Makes for stronger muscles

Even if it hurts now

And they’re sore for days after.

The forge

Melts the metal.

The hammer

Shapes the sword

His vision

Overcomes the imperfections.

 

And between sets,

Between blows,

Between pains,

There are moments of peace.

There are times to laugh.

And if now

Is a time to cry,

Then let the tears flow

Let them soak your shirt,

Your pillow,

Your heart.

 

But keep living.

Laughing

Does not demean your pain.

Smiling,

Does not mean your hurt is worthless.

Moving forward

Does not let others down.

 

Growing

Doesn’t have to mean 

Forgetting.

Remember

The pain

Remember

The forge

The hammer

The love

In your Maker’s eyes

As He shapes you

Into His child

His tool

His servant.

 

Do not

Be overcome

By the plates

On your bar.

Do not

Be afraid

Of the hammer

Coming down.

 

There is a moment of rest

Just around the corner.

There are lights

In every dark place.

There is laughter

Through the deepest of sorrows.

 

And the pressure

The worry

The anxiety

The to-do’s

The lists

The failures

The hopelessness

 

They

Are not all

That you are.

 

Since notifications for status updates have gone away, I wonder if posting them will become less and less of a thing as time goes on. Especially since newcomers to the Shard won't think of creating a custom feed to catch all of them.
