"Travel dream, a thousand miles

...meeting in Beijing." ~ "You and Me", Song of the 2008 Beijing Olympics

(EDIT 11:36 P.M.): This song makes me sad for a couple of reasons. This was the song that was playing when I had to say goodbye to my grandma for the last time and while her casket was being closed. This line from the song makes me really sad, though. My mom told me that my grandma always dreamed about taking me back to China with her one day. But she was never able to...That's strange...why is my shirt sleeve wet...?

(4:50 P.M.) My oboe lessons were a failure today, since I forgot all of my reeds at home. Coincidentally, Connor left his oboe at school, so we had a double oboe fail today.



When I was waiting in the car after my failed lessons, my parents were in the store, and I listened to my "Love" playlist on my Zune. This Final Fantasy song came up on shuffle, and I started to get a little teary-eyed. I don't have time to explain right now, so I'll finish this when I get home.

EDIT (11:03 P.M.): Okay, I'm home now, after watching an AMAZING concert. Back to what I was saying earlier! I was listening to this song and I was watching grass gently bobbing in the breeze. The sky was as blue as it could be, and clouds accented it...like fluffy marshmallows. I started thinking about all the people who come and go in this world, but nature is one thing that has existed for millions of year, and will be around for another set of millions of years. People die, but the sun still shines, the wind still blows, and water will never stop moving. Towards the end of the song, I see a BART train pass by, but it leaves as quickly as it had arrived, taking the last note of the song with it.

Argh, I apologize for the mixed up editing I did to this blog today. If anyone's confused, I basically wrote the middle first, the end second, and the beginning third. (I put timestamps to avoid confusion) Hopefully I get better at doing these...also, tomorrow, I'll write about my thrilling adventure in Danville today!
