some stuff which is happening or has already happened.

Well Opera auditions went down with lots of drama. Very long and painful story short I didn't get the role but was given super kudos and encouragement, including one of our most critical teachers urging me to continue on in music because I have a future waiting for me in it. So...yeah okay. So I ran off to the woods for the weekend with some friends and started working on my new project

So now my new project is the Concerto Competition, which is actually a bigger deal than the opera auditions because a vocalist hasn't won since the early 80s...it's a conservatory wide competition with three representatives from each division (violins, singers, trombones etc) and three winners get to perform their solo with the orchestra in a simulcast orchestra concert. So that's nifty...I have about a month to pull that together super fast...hooray!

In other news I made it onto the official Lawrence Youtube channel. My life is pretty much complete now. Matt's story is more moving and I look like I haven't slept in days which is accurate because alex (the filmmaker) called me at 8am and asked me to come do the interview but it's my claim to fame


I've also been writing the "artist spotlight" column for my school newspaper which you can check out weekly at http://www.lawrentian.com/

And...I am busy busy busy. OH! And I'm a trivia master! this is very exciting for everyone who is me. That means that at the end of january I'll stop sleeping and be a little bit crazy but in the best way :)
