Just Bloggin': Current Events in the Life of Bayley

Well, hi. I have not written in a while, but it is time for a new entry. Last night, I was privileged to see the amazing musical, Spring Awakening. The music and vocals were spectacular. Though, I may be a bit biased because I pretty much love all musicals. I was able to, somewhat, relate the plot to my life, captivating, but also quite intense. if you have the opportunity, see Spring Awakening!!! Today is just another day of the same. School. Homework. Blah, blah, blah. I am just waiting for tomorrow morning to come. Tomorrow morning, I am taking a little road trip to Leawood, Kansas. I am going there for a United Synagogue Youth convention. It sounds very religious, but I assure you it's not. Yes, we do pray and celebrate Shabbat (the Sabbath), but, for me, it is much more than that. The reason I love USY so much is the people. Many of my fellow USYers are very close friends of mine from summer camp. I have also made many friends at the conventions over the past couple of years. Jewishness is what I believe causes such great friendships with these people. They understand how it is to be different, how cultural jokes can be offensive, etc. My friends come from all corners of the Midwest, Canada, and other parts of the United States. I am just extremely excited to see them this weekend, since this is one of the rare occasions that I do. Then it's back to school on Monday. :)

*Look for Inferno Commentary, Canterbury Tales Commentary, and Everyman LRJ possibly coming soon.
