good times in the house

I've never had spring fever before - but then again - there's never been a spring like this.
Arizona has hit that point everyone said it would - the weather is perfect, the skiy is perfect, I keep taking naps on the gorgeous ASU lawns all over campus - I've never seen weather this beautiful in my life. And I'm living in it!!! People keep warning me that we'll melt soon, but I can't get over how gorgeous it is - must enjoy every single second.
That, and Kazu is in town - my wacky violin/composer friend fron Japan and now UNT. He's here for a big composer convention and a piece he wrote for me won and was chosen to perform - and since I'm here - yay! So I have one of my best friends here to play with for spring break.
Monday we're driving t Flagstaff and Sedona and Tuesday to the Grand Canyon and back home. It's all terribly exciting - especially since I got to perform his piece yesterday!!!!!!!
All my doctors said it was a bad thing and I couldn't play, but I promised them it was jsut this one thing. And I did it:) Smiles came to see me and took a great video of it - I'll post the pictures as soon as I get 'em back.
It just felt so liberating - I was on stage again... I was on stage with one of my best friends - I was playing for an audience of my peers and my sweetheart.... I felt alive. I didn't feel any pain I was so happy. I'm feeling it today, but I don't care. I'll give myself a break and we'll see how it is in a week.
MY last midterm was today and I'm relaxing... in a few minutes Smiles is coming to pick up Kazu and I to go to a gig he's playing (geeter and voice) in a restaurant, so I have to go get cute super quick...
But first - a story -
We're going on a triple date tonight and one of his friends is going with a girl Smiles doesn't exactly like. I asked him why - and he said both he and his friend had a problem with the way she dressed - very immodestly. One of the importnat things in our religion is modelsy in dress and actions. I'm one of the weird girls who actually dresses modestly. It's just important to me - I feel it shows respect to myself and to men.
I mean, what is it saying to a man if you dress in a certain way that makes him think of sex? It saying "I don't think ewnough of you to appeal to your deeper side because I don't think it's that interesting. SO I'll go for the lowest common denominator."
That's just saying you think men are stupid! My brothers taught me that. They dislike girls who dress to impress their physlcal side. It short-circuits their thought processes and they don't appreciate it.
SO Smiles being so adamant about the way this girl dressed made me feel validated. I don't dress sexy - I mean, I don't show flesh - sexy is a state of mind anyway - but, sometimes with all these hott girls around here i feel like a fuddy duddy.
But my guy respects me for what I've chosen.
*giggle*
Okay, like is really busy right now, but I promise the NEXT one will be a total SMiles update. It takes a lot of time, being twotterpated:)
SUPERCRACK is zzaaaaaaaaaap!
