Okay.  So my room is clean.  Yes, it looks to be well-maintained and all, BUT... I know that dirtiness is lurking everywhere so tomorrow, I shall do my "spring cleaning" early.  I know I will feel much better.  I tend to hold on to papers that I don't really need.  They accumulate in my desk and, before I know it, they are spilling out onto the floor.  Okay, really not THAT big of a deal, but yeah... What better way to kick off the weekend than to clean, right? (Kayla, you're in on this)

Today was a relatively easy day--I had an early start, though.  Class (Sight-Singing and Ear-Training) began at 8:00.  After that class,  I wrapped up some Bonhoeffer reading before rehearsing w/ my accompanist at 10:30, then going to a piano lesson at 11:00.  After a nice long lunch break, I went to my Political Science class--Faith and Freedom.  Talk about intellectually stimulating conversation.  I feel like I must take extra time to process what all is said in that class.  Not a bad thing.  Next: the fun part!

I went to choir where we rehearsed our Rogers/Hart and Rogers/Hammerstein pieces that we are performing in collaboration with the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra

on February 7th.  Then I taught my jazz class, in which we began our recital dance.  I have a great feeling about it :) 

So it's been a pretty good day.  Honestly, I take days like these for granted.  God gives so much, and we so often overlook the good He does in/around us.  Thank you, Lord, for another beautiful, sunny day and for the people who you have placed in my life.
