Sometimes I am positive that I am misunderstood 85% of the time that I communicate. Especially with people that I love. Especially those. I wish I could change this. I know that I can, though. So I'm not sure why I chose to use the word "wish". Therein lies the real problem, I believe.
I choose my words poorly. I speak before I think. I must be more deliberate if I ever hope to truly get my point across.
Right now, my head hurts so terribly bad. I would say that I am tremendously sad, if it weren't for the amazing things that God has been doing in my life. I wish that I could re-do alot of the things that I've done during this school year (There, I think that is the way the word "wish" should be used). I salute the concept that my freshman year in college is a learning year. Oh, how I've learned. I just feel like I have made alot of really stupid decisions that I've learned not to make many times in the past. But maybe that's what learning is - learning and re-learning and then learning some more. It has begun to get old, so I'd like to fervently seek to overcome some obstacles in my life during the next few weeks. I appreciate your prayers so much.
Spring break has come and gone in a blur. It seems like just yesterday that I was loading up my car and hitting the open road toward 10 days of unadulterated freedom and all the sand and sunshine any boy could ask for. And here I sit, 5:30 on Sunday morning, the day that I am packing back up and beginning the long drive back to Nashville. The break was good and much needed, though. The weather at the beach was a little bit chilly for my liking, but I enjoyed getting away from everything/one for awhile. I'm looking forward to seeing what the rest of this semester has in store for me. I've been on my toes every since I've gotten to Belmont, and things always seem to be surprising me, so I'm sure that I have an eventful month ahead of me before summer officially begins.
love, steven.

i write to keep the sleep away
So I'm in Knoxville for the weekend...
(I thought that maybe if I started this post off casually, maybe I could avoid the uncomfortable awkwardness of posting for the first time in a really long time. I was wrong.)
But I really am in Knoxville for the weekend. I'm actually leaving tomorrow (Which is actually today) to go back to Nashville. It's hard to believe how quickly this year has gone by. Am I seriously 1/4 of the way through college? I guess staying busy has helped to pass the time. I've certainly been busy, as indicated by my last post... and by the date of my last post.
I have not intentionally neglected blogging. I've just had to get acclimated to this brand new environment that is Belmont University. I think that I'm getting to the point where I can balance academics, music, social things, and blogging and still stay sane. But I guess we'll have to see about the blogging part. I can't make any promises, but I can definitely say that I have been inspired by Kristian, Anna, Troy, and now Justin (who has recently joined the blogging world. congratulations) to keep up the writing. So that is what I intend to do.
By the way, since I last posted, my entire family has visited me in Nashville! A few weekends ago, my parents, grandma, and two little brothers were able to visit. And last weekend, Leah, Anna, Kristian, Justin, Andy, Abby, Troy, Elsie, Matias, and Judah came to see me! It was wonderful being able to share with them my new "home" (whatever that means) and let them meet some of my friends here. They were also able to see me play a couple of shows with the Kopecky Family Band (http://www.myspace.com/kopeckyfamilyband).
It's nearly 5 AM here in Knoxville. I have been tossing and turning in bed for a little bit and thought that maybe it was time to break my blogging silence. Maybe now my spirit will be able to rest easy in this cold dark room in which it is dwelling.
Here's a picture for you, though. Goodnight my dear friends.

This was at a house show at my friend Ive's house. It was great fun.
