I dreamed a dream

WOW. I love Mount Royal. The atmosphere is so great. Everyone is so nice, even the people that I thought wouldn't be. My professors are great. I haven't met one of them, but the other two I like. I LOVE my sociology class. I had no idea that it was this fascinating. Infact, for the first time in my life, I feel like the knowitall of the class. I put my hand up and answered like every question my prof asked because the reading we had to do I re read AND made notes on. Holy frig. It is so interesting. If it stays this good, I might end up applying for my BA and majoring in Sociology. The facilites in the school are awesome, like the gym. They provide so much help and sessions we can take. They have a chapel, and a place you can go for to pray and there are people on campus that we can talk to. There are also faith groups I can join and stuff, and I think that is fabulous. I'll have to check out the chapel. And the classroom sizes are so ideal, as opposed to trying to learn with 200 people in one class. Although, that would kind of be cool to experience. I love it. I know that the school work hasn't even started yet, but I love it already. I can't wait to finish my french in the second semester so I can get started on an actual degree. Ah. So good, y'all. :)

I know it's inconvienent that I can't drive, but I love taking transit to and from school. I like the time to reflect and to just walk and observe people. A lot of the time I hang out with God, too. Today I was on my way home and had just got off the bus downtown, and I had to pull out my earbuds for some reason. I heard this jazz music, so I followed it and got to hear this fantastic live jazz/funk/soul band. I was thinking to myself what a blessing it was to hear them. They gave me shivers! At the end, I went up because I saw that they were giving out cards. I grabbed one because I wanted to know the name of the band, and then I looked on the back and there was a small message from the lead singer. This is what it said:

music is what liberates people from within
In it's tones are the keys to life & death
I went to the mountaintop
I saw that I am but a child of God
I am a musician
I am going to play for God
Lord, thank you for the oppertunity
I promise to do my all to uplift,
to illuminate and to transform
the consciousness of humanity to divine truth

SO, SO NEAT. God most definitely set that up for me perfectly. I love it. I am going to email this guy, and tell him that. And tell him how wonderful his band is, too. 'Cause they were great! God is good.

I am learning the Glee version of "I Dreamed A Dream." Well, Breanna and I are learning it seperately, and then we are going to sing it together. Maybe we'll put it on Facebook if we get good enough at it. I love it. It is such a powerful song.
