Float Float Floating away....

I'll take on whatever gets thrown in my direction!

YEAH




Like I'm gone, ooo
Oh, up and away
mmmmmmmmmmm you get me high

plus...

I think one of the coolest and most inspiring things is that things like youtube allow each and every one of us to put ourselves or our creativity out there.

Beautiful.

Gonna cross it off my list.

Tough crowd...


but I can't let it bring me down.

Still lots to do!

Down to 52 days....


:-)




P.S. The roadtrip is completely necessary to keeping me on track. Because it's worth it all.

When did it get so late?

Tuesday, Here I come!

As good as it gets...

I still feel doomed to care more than everyone else.

Announcement!!!!!

This past weekend, I had FUN. I had someone around who wanted to spend time with me, and I didn't sit around doing homework all day and night. Instead, I conversed with people, went out and experienced something besides the inside walls of my room, and I genuinely enjoyed myself.

I'm starting off this week feeling more refreshed, relaxed, and capable of taking on the next 54 days. It's because I didn't sit around and think about how difficult things are going to be for once.

I realize that I need to stay 100% focused the next 8 weeks.

But the knowledge that I'm going to get to spend time every other weekend with my best friend helps more than anything :-)

It's 1:30 AM

...and I can't wait to wake up at 7 and do more homework!!!!


I'm 100% serious - things have fallen into place. I've got my practicing under control (making some actual progress - still not where I want to be, but I'll be there in time), I have some serious leads on the job front (and beginning to feel confident in my ability to get where I want to go), and among other things, REALLY looking forward to conducting. I'm nervous - it feels like FOREVER since I've done anything - but I'm also REALLY excited. If I work at this...I think it could take me to a new level conducting-wise (as corny as that sounds).

All this, PLUS I've got to spend time learning from the Tony Award winning arranger of Movin' Out on Broadway (who also performs and conducts) (it's quite inspiring AND comforting, especially knowing he moved from NY to NC to PA and has managed to accomplish all those things. Reassures me I can do what I want, and that temporarily moving to the south is quite possibly a GREAT step towards my goals) AND a superly amazing sitar player (I can't wait to travel. I'm SO EXCITED to travel. I'M GOING TO TRAVEL the world!!!!!!!) who played some AMAZING music that both inspires and is simply great to listen to.

Could there be any more awesome things going on for me??? WELLLLLL my friend is coming up for the weekend and we're going to have an awesome time.

So it's pretty great :-)
