You could say I've fallen into a hole this past few weeks. I've been sick, and school/extra-currics/life has not been going very well. I pretty much bombed a chair audition today and have pretty horrible grades in class. I think I'm unraveling. Falling apart even. But it isn't going to last. I've learned that before we find the courage and the skills to lead others, we must learn to lead ourselves. People aren't going to follow you if you can't even get your own life together. That's where I am right now. Trying to get my life back together and recover from the blow that I've somehow received in these past few weeks. I know I haven't been updating much, but that's basically the reason why. I've been too overwhelmed with everything that this semester has been throwing at me to update or to even think and reflect.
I just need some time to get things back to where they should be.
I'll find that time. And it'll be okay.

I think we have all been suffering from a grave misconception about senior year. We thought it was a chance to relax before we went to college, but it is in fact a test to see if we can last-the final mile of a marathon. But not really, because running is almost never fun, and I'm quite sure the last mile of a marathon would not be. And unlike a marathon, senior year is meant to be fun. Not fun like we thought, slacking off and partying on the weekends, but fun in that we're all together in the stress, stealing moments to enjoy each other in this final year.
I know you can pull yourself back together- I don't think you're in as bad of shape as you think, but remember that we're all here to get you through and force you to have fun in the process. :D
