Hello, Xanga-ers.
It has been quite a bit of time since I last posted. Sadly, I have mostly been using Blogspot but fear not...I have not deserted you, Xanga...not all the way.
A lot has happened in my life...I am practicing a lot more...have become much much much more nerdy about violin and classical music.
It seems everything I do has something to do with music and it feels very odd when I go into a restaurant not to have an instrument to worry about taking in, and not getting stolen, and not getting too hot or cold. But...my goals and ambitions are become much much more focused what with college looming near like a huge black wall and the idea of actually growing into an adult. O_O
I don't really want to grow up...I don't really want to have the responsibility of paying my own bills, and car insurance, and health insurance, and gas, and rent, and instrument insurance, and whatever else you have to have nowadays to live in this world. But there it is...we must all grow up sometime.
In other [good] news, my piano trio won the open division of the Chicago National Chamber music Competition which was quite exciting. We played first movement of Ravel Trio and last movement by a modern comoser, Rorem.
And this year (as in, 2009) I have placed in two competitions in Chicago which was quite exciting. I have had many amazing opportunities for which I must thank my beautiful and incredible teacher, Desiree.
I have also been given the amazing opportunity to staff TeenPact Indiana! I am very excited about what God will do through me and for me in the upcoming class!
Well, I shan't bore you any more...perhaps I'll be posting again in a few weeks. Ta ta!!!
