Somebody To Lean On

Some times in our lives we all have pain we all have sorrow,

But if we are wise we know that there's always tomorrow.

Lean on me when you're not strong and I'll be your friend. I'll help you carry on.

Fall. It won't be long till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on.

You just call on me brother when you need a hand.

We all need somebody to lean on.

I just might have a problem that you'd understand.

We all need somebody to lean on.

If there is a load you have to bear that you can't carry,

I'm right up the road I'll share your load if you just call me.

Lean on me when you're not strong and I'll be your friend. I'll help you carry on.

Fall. It won't be long till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on.

This song has been playing in my head all day. Today I felt weary but I remembered the verse in Galatians 6:9 that says And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.

It was encouraging but I still don't want to study for my tests tomorrow.

revision:

jeans made out of polyester would be nice

megan says jeans already are made out of cotton :( Not any cotton I like!

I am sick.

blech

I went to my first class today and left after getting my test back in my second. I layed in bed till my third class which I ended up going to. Andrea and I ate lunch and then she took me back to my room and gave me medicine. Kourtney, Andrea and I are all three sick today so we are looking out for each other.

I skipped Spanish and took an unintentional nap and accidently was late to my violin lesson which I was planning on going too. Unfortunately, I couldn't move. I struggled to get in the car (I know, I'm an idiot) and it hurt immensely to even use my arm to turn the wheel. I gave my practice journal to mr. song and told him I am sick and can't play my violin right now. Oddly, while I have a head and sinus cold I also can't move my back. If I twist to the right or left it screams in pain. If I try to sit up or rotate positions, or lift my right arm I am met with sharp pain and immediately stop what I'm doing. Ouch. I hope that doesn't last.

I had a good weekend with my dad. He came to see my violin pops concert which also went really well.

Having girls night again tonight for the first time this semester.

Kourtney brought me some chicken noodle soup in bed. Awww.

I wish I had 5 more pairs of sweatpants so I would never have to wear jeans again in my life.

I never like jeans growing up and I could never find any I was comfortable in in high school but I wore them anyway. Now I'm in college and I find myself fighting my urge to wear comfy cute sweatpants everyday. Not the uber baggy only lounge around the house type but the only slightly loose comfortable fabric kind that don't make your stomach hurt.

As a kid my favorite pants were overalls. This was because there was no tie, elastic, or otherwise at my waist line. I was devastated the day I found out that overalls stop looking good on most people at a certain age. Now I will say that there are a few people I know who can still pull off the overalls in teens, college age, middle age and elderly years. I am so jealous of them.

I was so happy the day I bought my leotard for college. The closest thing to overalls yet and same with one piece bathing suits. Someday... when I'm an old fart and no one cares I will wear overalls all the time and my grandchildren will try to tell me how old that is and I will say "pooh, pooh, I'm old and I smell and I deserve the right to be comfortable."

All this to say that I like sweatpants. And I might consider wearing Jeans if they were made out of cotton.

Super bowl commercials stole my phrase :(

And I quote from the commercial for Dove for Men:

"Be comfortable in your own skin."

Ok in search of another commercial I wanted to talk about can't find, I found this one from last year:

Hillarious and clean. click here

WEll, I'm getting sick and so I'm headed to bed but a post will come shortly, I promise.

Last night I discovered that bologna is just salt and fat :( Now I have an entire container left that I payed for and am utterly grossed out. :( In the future I will be getting turkey.

My Dad gets in today. I'm skipping Spanish to pick him up and then I've got rehearsals and such while he gets some work done.

I slept through the night last night and went to bed early even. I was in bed by 12:30... can you believe that! Teehee... I'm so proud.

Its a blustery and rainy day in Jackson. I slept terribly. I was in pain went I went to bed (which was early - around 12:30) and woke hour after hour through the night. I was sleep walking and whimpering and crying out in my sleep. I was in a lot of pain. I got up at 6 and heated up a rice sock and was in and out of restless sleep until 7 when I got up and took advil and then was able to sleep a little better until 8 when my alarm went off. I got up and reset it for 9 (class at 9:20) deciding that getting this little but of restful sleep was more important than taking my shower. Besides its raining, no one will know ;)

After I got up at 9 I read my bible for a while but kept falling asleep while reading. threw on some clothes and head to class where I again almost fell asleep and decided I would just do homework instead of paying attention cuz I was falling asleep.

Lit at 12 - almost fell asleep during that one too.

NOw I'm back in my room and have to practice my violin and study for tonight's bio test. Its too late to take a nap because its past 12.

Maybe I'll head to bed earlier tonight too.

My dad comes tomorrow :)

In biology a while ago we learned that the thyroid helps keep calcium in your bones and when the estrogen stops being produced there isn't anything to stop the parathyroid from causing the bone to lose calcium. Aparantly until our 18th or so birthday is when we stock up the calcium for our bones. Not to say that after that it doesn't matter whether or not we drink our milk, it still does but the critical time is while your bones are still growing birth to 18 years.

So at the grocery store, instead of buying chips or cookies or something, I spent my money on meat and cheese to stock up calcium and I have been enjoying this tasty snack all day :).

This was what you could call, a snack of a post. Bite size compared to the meals I've been writing recently.
