Without You Here

So this without a doubt has quite possibly been the worst December yet.

As of now, I'd rather not pen every reason and every incident.

Maybe soon.

In the midst of overwhelming emotions, I turn to music. And my three helpers at the moment; Matt Thiessen, Jonny Craig and Taylor Swift. On top of that, I think I have discovered one of my most favorite albums:

Forget & Not Slow Down by Relient K.

It is amazing, passionate, emotional, depressing, uplifting and so much more wrapped into 16 tracks. I don't think I've listened to an album that at the time I'm in, I felt I could relate so closely to. It was as if the words that flowed from his mouth were coming out of my heart. So Matt, I thank you.

Emarosa is just an amazing band with amazing lyrics.

And Taylor Swift, she just has those sappy songs that you can relate to, and then her uplifting ones that just make you smile.

Well, I have one week left of break, since I'm not going to Winter Conference anymore. I'm done house-sitting the crazy big house (I actually enjoyed it a bit though). So, hopefully I find something to do. I'm nervous going back to school, away from my beautiful San Luis Obispo. Prayer would be greatly appreciated.

I'd rather forget and not slow down than gather regret for the things I can't change now.
