I've discovered that I really love musicals. This isn't a new discovery; it's something I've known since high school. The musical I keep going back to this year though is "Notre Dame de Paris." I went as far as to spend over $20 to buy the music from Itunes...the thing is, it's all in French, and I've never actually read "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," the book it is based off of. However, the music is incredible and the dancing remarkable. My current favorite song is called "Liberes." It's got a certain tension in it, an underlying desperation that's tired of being desperate and is becoming angry and rebellious. It's good stuff.
I was in the writing mood earlier and wanted to write something...but I really don't have much to write and I haven't written creatively for enjoyment since I was in my creative writing class my freshman year of college, which was in winter of 2005, 4 years ago. And I haven't really drawn since my drawing class my sophomore year. I'm woefully out of practice and it's really a terrible thing.
I actually joined a second D&D group yesterday. This was a good thing, because I'm beginning to just loathe my other D&D group, and I"m not sure why. Familiarity breeds contempt, perhaps. I like most of the people in the group...i mean, my best friend is in the group, and i adore her. But it's kinda...becoming a chore I don't want to do as opposed to something that I do because it helps me forget all the other "chores" i have to do in life. But in this new group, all of them both write and draw in their spare time and it's...kinda intimidating? But that has negative connotations. It's really good for me because it makes me want to start up doing those things again. They're....people I want to know because they do things I want to do, as opposed to people I know that I only know by a fluke of nature, you know? I explain things badly, don't I....
I'm about a month behind in my Korean class. It will really really really suck if I fail.
