The Thoughts That Keep You Thinking

Ever notice how some things in this world just don't make sense?  What are those random thoughts that keep you up at night?  Well here is a few for me...why do we park on driveways and drive on parkways?  And my friends personal favorite...what the heck is cheesecake...a cake or a pie.  The world may never know!!  Don't even get me started on the English language.  I'm in a diction class right now learning how to speak and sing in different languages (including English).  It's RIDICULOUS!! I understand "i" before "e" except after "c", but that's not even scratching the surface.  Here's another...at night why do we say after dark, when in reality it is after light? Why do people ask you to "put your two cents in", but people ask "a penny for your thoughts"? What happened to the second penny?  Well that ought to be just about enough to hurt you brain.  I would like to make this a consistent type of post, so watch out for more confounding facts and questions!

The wonderful world of Sam

I have recently been struct with a fascination of blogs, and so here I am, to write my very own.  Who knows how long it will last?  Who knows who will even look at it....but really...who cares? I have learned first hand that you need somewhere to unleash you thoughts and your feelings, or eventually they will all spill out, and it ain't pretty.  What better place than the internet?  I would venture to say that most people that even have a chance of looking at this will be really close friends of mine and so they probably already know the information I am about to dispel, but nevertheless, I would like to start with a brief introduction of myself.  As the title says, my name is Sam, Samantha if you will.  Some people call me Smana or Mana for short.  And yet others "hey you with the face!"  I will respond to just about anything.  Anyway, I am currently a college sophomore studying Music Education with a focus on voice.  It's a lot of work, but it's my passion.  Well, at least I hope it is or I'm wasting an incredible amount of time and money.  My day consists of notes, rhythms, modulations, secondary dominants, harmonizations, and just about every other musical term you can spout off.  Truthfully, I can't even believe that I'm using my time to write this post, when in reality I should be working on all my school work that will undoubtedly take me the rest of eternity to finish.  Well there is a small snip-it of who I am, and hopefully there will be more to follow. Who knows what is to come in the future of this blog.  My readers (assuming I have any) sure don't.  I don't even have a clue.  I guess it's just a journey that we will all have to take together.
