It has been snowing for over 24 hours straight here and has yet to stop. They didn't cancel classes today which is annoying. I had to take exams in two of my classes today, and for some odd reason, I wasn't anxious/nervous/stressed at all. I'm pretty sure I did well on them =)

Aside from school, life has been interesting lately. I have an increased amount of creativity that just seems to surge through me 24/7. Every few minutes I have the urge to write a song on the piano or guitar, paint something, drawing something, you name it. I'm also on this "I can do anything I put my mind to" kick. My latest desire is to set up some sort of simple home recording "studio." I have a decent singing voice, an electric guitar, an acoustic guitar,an electric bass, a drum set, a piano, a keyboard, egg shakers, a recorder, a kazoo, a bunch of household items that (as far as I'm concerned) make some of the best instruments, and a very nice laptop (and my boyfriend's desktop he built) computer. I feel like I'm letting all of these resources go to waste. I've been reading up on essentials for home recording but it is mind boggling with all of the other stuff on my mind...

I watch charlesasher a lot on youtube. This is going to sound odd (maybe) but he and Ellen DeGeneres make me so happy to be me. Ellen is probably the closest thing I have to an "idol" of some sort and Charles is just so ... interesting to me. Between the two of them, I feel like taking on the world. I feel that it is okay to have the gender identity issues that I have. Really, they make it seem like it isn't even an issue-- just a bonus that allows me to see life with a different perspective and understanding. I need to find a way to harness this sense of happiness and, well... pride in myself. It has been a significant self esteem booster.

In other news... I hate the new facebook layout. My boyfriend's layout hasn't changed. I'm not sure what I did to change mine but I am not happy about it. Change sucks... sometimes lol.

I hope it continues to snow more... What I should be doing right now is writing a speech that I have to give tomorrow. Bah. I'll go on facebook for a bit THEN work on the speech... Or, like usual, I'll probably find a million things that must be done before my homework: checking the weather, brushing my teeth, watching the news, watch youtube videos, play the guitar, do laundry, clean my room, watch snow fall.... anything but do my homework.
