Get Thee To A Nunnery!

Yes, I'm up late again, writing another paper. This one's for my Shakespeare class, and it's on Ophelia's identity as a sexual being. It's actually a really interesting paper to write, and it's going pretty fast, considering I've taken several half-hour breaks since I sat down to write. I had caffeine about an hour ago, so I'll probably be up for a while longer, even if I finish this paper soon. I'm really glad I can write papers again and actually enjoy the intellectual stimulation; last semester, it felt like I was running headfirst into a concrete wall every time I tried to write.

Speaking of running into concrete walls, that's what my voice lesson today felt like. There was this one turn that my voice teacher was trying to get me to sing, but my brain just couldn't wrap itself around the notes, so it never came out right. We talked at the end of the lesson about how I can't be afraid or hold back because I have such a powerful sound that it would be silly to not let it out.

I'll update on S later, but suffice it to say that I'm very happy with the way things are going so far.
