first things first: lunar eclipse on wednesday night-- exceptional. loved it. (by the way, thanks for the call. would have missed a pretty part of the eclipse without it.) and today, the clouds were brindled, so that the moon came in and out of view. when a chunk of cloud was close enough to the moon, there was a rainbow effect. way awesome.
this week feels as if it is better than the last. i'm careful there, to not say that it's an "easier" week, because it's most certainly not. i had two midterms, to start. but it's just been a friendlier week for me. and halloween is in two days. i know kevin is happy :) and for those going to the homecoming dance, i hope you have a great time.
i've been writing poetry, though. it's been such an outlet for escape the past couple of weeks. when my life overloaded in schoolwork and my job, i still had this outlet to rid of my problems verbally. i don't necessarily think that writing about your life and its problems gets the problems out of the way... but i am a firm believer in the fact that releasing your "bad energy" is better than sheltering it until it explodes on its own. and i am so glad i have this art to lean on when i need it.
speaking of, i also have relied on music for emotional release as well. sometimes, i really think music is this miracle drug. take that as you will. i owe it my life.
trick and treat!!
