It's been a secret wish of mine to have a song named after me. Mind you, it didn't have to be about me, but you know, at least I could pretend. Naturally, Evy is a pretty rare name, and in the list of rare names that people have written songs about, it's pretty far down on the list. I must point out, however, that at least there're a lot of words that could rhyme with Evy. I mean, I'm pretty sure there are.

Anyway.

I found a song today, with my name on it. More or less. Pretend, okay? It's cool.

Slumber, My Darling
by Alison Krauss feat. Yo-Yo Mama

Slumber, my darling, thy mother is near,
Guarding thy dreams from all terror and fear,
Sunlight has pass'd and the twilight has gone,
Slumber, my darling, the night's coming on.
Sweet visions attend thy sleep,
Fondest, dearest to me,
While others their revels keep,
I will watch over thee.

Slumber, my darling, the birds are at rest,
The wandering dews by the flow'rs are caressed,
Slumber, my darling, I'll wrap thee up warm,
And pray that the angels will shield thee from harm.

Slumber, my darling, till morn's blushing ray
Brings to the world the glad tidings of day;
Fill the dark void with thy dreamy delight--
Slumber, thy mother will guard thee tonight,
Thy pillow shall sacred be
From all outward alarms;
Thou, thou are the world to me
In thine innocent charms.

Slumber, my darling, the birds are at rest,
The wandering dews by the flow'rs are caressed,
Slumber, my darling, I'll wrap thee up warm,
And pray that the angels will shield thee from harm

In other news, school's making me utterly busy. We have two classes that require us to submit case studies every meeting, whether we're the presenting group or not. Thus, we're working on an average of four cases a week. For only two classes.

I couldn't feel more brilliant, though.

Neither was I until I applied and Raphie was all squee-like at me. I was so confused when she was all 'You applied for Incertitude!' I was like '...have you been stalking my email account or something?'. :|

That's one way to find out, I suppose. :|
