so i went to lunch today with dr. isley and emily...it was soo much fun! i told her about my stroke and of course she flipped out but she was more sympathetic that i expected her to be. she was genuinely scared for me....which is much different than ms cancryn would have been! i cannot tell you how happy it has made me to switch teachers - seriously one of the best decisions of my life!!! and so now she knows everything that is going on in emily and mine's life. then she told us about her trip to europe...SHE STOPPED A TRAIN!! she's that cool ;) no she said that musicians over there are treated special b/c it's such a part of their history and culture so when they found out she was a singer, they called and got her new connecting trains and stopped just to let her catch one! and my new goal for the summer is to become more personal with people. i feel like all my friendships are very shallow - i don't know what is going on in their lives or their history. well i started on that today at lunch (which with dr. isley isn't that hard to do!) so i feel a little bit of a sense of accomplishment. now i just have to go study for my final tomorrow....BLAH!!!! have a great day!
