Samantha James - Rise
Here I sit, searching the deepest corridors of my mind and attempting to pull out skimpy strings of thoughts but unfortunately, failing to mold them into something wholesome. How strange it is to think that not long after I created this blog, there were many times a day I would find my fingers pleasurably skimming the keyboard with ease, but now, I question, “What is there left to speak of?” There are infinite topics to thrive upon, but it seems that all I have wanted to express had been done so already repetitiously. Perhaps I am too distracted by the fact that I am no longer a minor, and that I will be a college student in a few months.

I don’t think I’ll ever be tired of this song.
Holy shit. PCC’s average BSN passing rate for the NCLEX is about 93%.
I knew their nursing program is good, but not THAT good. They beat some of the top state universities and UCs as well.
Nice.
Often, I find myself gazing at pictures of delicious foods despite my stomach’s hunger pangs, making me much more ravenous. I feel like a pregnant woman.
Albeniz - Asturias-Leyenda
Isaac Albeniz was a Spanish Catalan pianist and composer best known for his piano works based on folk music idioms (many of which have been transcribed by others for guitar). Albeniz’s prelude, Asturias-Leyenda, is perhaps the quintessential “Spanish guitar” piece. A favorite of Andrés Segovia (Spanish classical guitarist from Linares, Jaén, Andalucia, Spain), and virtually every guitarist that followed him, the piece has become so widely identified with the guitar that those who do not know otherwise would probably be astonished to discover that the work was originally written for the piano. Isaac Albeniz (1860-1909) wrote the piece during the early 1890’s, most likely in London (where he had established himself as a concert pianist and theatre composer). The piece was first published in Barcelona, by Juan Bta. Pujol & Co., in 1892 as the opening “Preludio” of a three-movement set entitled Chants d’ Espagne, op. 232.
I have heard this song many times before, but I still love it.
