recital pictures!

Here they are! With mom's fine handy work on adding that pin to the neckline of my dress since I'd lost weight since purchasing it..and didn't really realize that until the morning of my recital...

summer injuries

Haha you guys can look for some more entries this summer because I have a lot of free time which I love. I'm getting so much work done now that will save my sanity in the fall (planning my senior recital, learning opera audition material, writing my tutorial syllabus etc). Tragically a lot of that involves me playing the piano/typing which was made rather difficult by a series of stupid events. First while I was moving I did...something. I vaguely remember 3 or 4 incidents that could have caused this but that evening my 4th finger on the right hand was giaaant and swollen. It's better now but it still doesn't like to bend all the way. Then there was an incident with a ceiling fan...
anyways my hands look like this now


boo. Oh well. Wish me luck on my job interview. Maura came to visit this weekend which was nice and I found my driver's license which is good because there isn't much use in a 21st birthday if you can't prove you're 21 :)

summerrrr..

That's my new room! it only took just on the side of forever to move in... but now I'm moved in and I get to move all over again in two months...
I'm keeping myself pretty busy up here, preparing for senior recital, teaching aural skills lessons, working for residence life in addition to doing RLA stuff. I've also applied for a couple of jobs so we'll see what happens with that. If anyone needs the new mailing address you can email me at wilsonmo@lawrence.edu and I'll send it to you.
I have a couple little trips happening this summer. One of my best friends is living in Milwaukee this summer so I'll be going down there to visit her a weekend or two. In July my friend Jeff and I are heading out to Michigan to visit Tim and to get some "beach" time. I'll probably be in Virginia for a week in august (probably the second week) so hopefully I'll see some of you then. Otherwise I'll be back from november to january next year and you'll be completely sick of me!

drawing to an end...

So spring continues to be springy...sort of. by that i mean it hovers between 50-65 degrees. But with one week left of classes everything is getting sort of silly around here. Saturday night was a fraternity formal that I went to with a friend and sarah and her boyfriend and a bunch of our other friends found dates and it was much more of a party than a dance with proper dates.
Then came the choir olympics which is a very silly occasion where we get the probably most unathletic group of people on campus and ask them to participate in a series of foolish events. One of which is the official sport of concert choir which was invented a couple years ago and played annually which consists of two circles of people who walk around while some choir member plays songs about birds/flying etc for a while until screaming "BIRDIE ON A PERCH! BIRDIE ON A PERCH!" at which point someone from the inner circle and someone from the outer circle need to pair up and one of them must be entirely off the ground, "perched" on the other person...anyways...it results in a lot of silly pictures.





we also took a boat out onto the lake behind bjella's lake.




and here's a picture from opera scenes. recital went well too but I dont have any pictures of that because mom took 'em all. So when i get some from her I'll post 'em. But...the recital went really well and I felt really good about it all!
