October 29

       I'm keeping this post relatively short because it's late, and I have to be up super early tomorrow to go to Cambridge! I'm so excited! Well, today was another information overload day. I woke up early to finish an assignment for class, you know, that last minute cramming. Composition and Musicianship was good but there was too much information to soak up in 1.5. hours. I'm always a bit glazed when I leave any music class here, but I went straight to a piano and tried to make sense of it all. Between cranking out examples of theory on the piano, reading through part of the lengthy manual on some music software, and reviewing lecture notes, I was burnt out by 5:30 and dropped the academic stuff for a few hours. I headed back to the kitchen, and ate again. I've been eating too much lately, and I just realized that it's a coping mechanism for stress. Stress always sneaks up on me so fast! I can't let those carbs get the best of me, so I've got to learn some different way of coping. I wish the gym renovation would be finished already! I moved the last few "crack" cookies (they're so addicting!) from my room to the kitchen to lessen the level of temptation, but I still feel fat.
       I stayed in for the evening and borrowed "The Holiday" from one of my neighbors to help me chill out. I love that movie! And it's even cooler because I'm actually in England and half of that movie is set very close to where I am! After the flick, I started putting things together early for our trip to Cambridge tomorrow. We're catching a taxi to the tube station at 6:50 am! That's gonna be rough, but it will be worth it. I'll write about it and hopefully post pictures soon!

Prayer Request of the Day: That I would be self-controlled in all areas but especially with my food intake!
