Lying Down

I'm lying on the couch right now, listening to the nearly final mixes of the songs from my EP (short album). In a week or so, check out my website (stoddyblackall.bandcamp.com) to hear it! The album's called "Refresh".

I never said why I'm on the couch. Well, I've been sick for more than a week now. Hopefully I'm on the tail end of it now. I bet by Friday, I'll be all better. Last night I slept all the way through the night. That is amazing for me. I slept from 4:30am or so (yeah, stayed up late again with my mom, watching reality TV shows haha) and woke up at 1:30pm when my alarm went off. Who knows how long I would've slept for if I hadn't set an alarm.. Wow. I'm shocked.

5 days from now, I'll be about to take the first plane out of Boston, which will arrive in Zurich, Switzerland. Then I'll take a plane to Athens, Greece from there. I can't even fathom what this experience will be like. I'm just hoping that it will be similar to all those other people that study abroad while they're in college. People like my cousin, Brecken or my Dad. Especially my dad. He always has these long, drawn out stories that are so interesting and memorable. Some of them are not happy stories, however. But most of the stories I hear about studying abroad always end in, "That was the best experience I have ever had". I hope I can say the same thing. I'll do my best to make that happen.

Star.
