i can't sleep :(

ok, so it's official. i am suffering from insomnia tonight. that is the last friggin time i nap for 2 hrs during the day....**grumble** so i might as well fill u in on my life from the past few weeks. there's really not much worth talking about, but there were a couple of fun things i did.
so on tuesday night, there was a jazz benefit concert for hurricane katrina at the statler theatre of cornell. the ic vocal jazz ensemble opened the show (and even got a few tears outa people) and then there were several other bands that performed. the last one was a dixieland band w/ a banjo and all, and they were fantastic!! and we got to sing the last number w/ them: "when the saints go marching in," a traditional dixie tune. so overall, it was a splendid evening to be had by all. (AND about 400 people came, and the concert raised almost $5000!!! yay for that!)
ummm, so yea. my classes are going ok. had my first exam in ed psych the other day. got an 89, sooooooo close to an A. and my cheat sheet kicked ass too. damn. vocal jazz ensemble has been wonderful as always, love it more every time :)
o, and last weekend, i went to this place called taughonock (sp?) falls, which were amaaaazing! there was a 215 ft. waterfall (taller than niagra) and it was simply GORGES!!! however, the water levels were really low, so it wasn't nearly as much as i thought it'd be, but amazing nonetheless. and i actually went down to the lake and saw it up close and personal for the first time ever, even though i've lived in ithaca for quite some time now :P a feast for the eyes for sure :)
so i'm waiting for my mom to mail me some college stuff i have to do, and give envelopes to my advisor so he can mail out letters of recommendation for me. ugh.....i hate all this college crap i have to deal with. this whole tranferring thing plagues my every thought. everytime it's a nice day, and i look around at what a great campus this is, and how many wonderful opportunities there are here, and all the culture and music and talent....sigh....it makes me very sad :( and i know i'll be back to visit and all, but i just can't stand the thought of not being able to go to school here. i know, i'll probably look back on this one day and think it's not a big deal, cuz people transfer all the time and i'll make new friends, and ya da ya da yahh.....but still.....it sucks bigtime. i'm even stocking up on ithaca gear, like pants, shirts, mugs, etc...cuz i want everyone to know i went to school here cuz it's amaazing! maybe i'm just being silly.....
so on a more chipper note, tomorrow is urban cowboy night here and i'm super excited! :D i went last yr and had a wonderful time. i rode on a real mechanical bull twice, made a really cheesy bracelet and magnet, had my picture taken w/ the girls, and did line dancing. i even got a free cowboy hat!! :) hopefully this year will be just as fun...
alright kids, i think i'm gunna attempt to sleep, which i hope i can even though i'm already gunna be tired for my classes anywayz...o the life i lead!
