This is for my ghetto people.

Just to gross you out - here's a picture of the last infection I had before surgery. mmmm.

I forgot a HUGE highlight of my life. This is in Nov(?) I was interviewed on a NY radio station - and my song "Love me anyway" was played :) I was starting to get really sick - which I think you can kinda see.

as promised - the crotch video.

Reunions

Chrystal's there in her red dress

It's been amazing the last two years to be able to see most of you guys and catch up. I can't describe the amazing experiences I've had on Caitlyn's visits to the city (you can imagine how much trouble we got into) or on traveling to Chicago to be with Liv during her surgery (that was an adventure...she couldn't speak!) or Morg and Colin coming to the city, having coffee with Abs, Nish coming to my b-day dinner, and not to mention bonding with Bev as roomies and classmates! Unfortunately, I haven't been able to see Aubs yet. . .but maybe in the near future!! (I hear you're doing awesomely!!)

My most recent encounter was last weekend, when I went up to New Haven to see Chrystal in her opera, The Nightingale. I've gone up a few times, and she's come to the city several times as well. (Make sure you hound her to update us on her life! She has some interesting things to share!!)

Here's us. . . six years after our first meeting. . . five after we roomed together as freshmen!

Yay! I'm so glad we've kept in touch and stayed friends! All of us!! :)

Choir for Cougars

So I sang "Steal me Sweet Thief" in Vocal Solo Class (Northwesterns equivilent of Voice Seminar but the teachers don't comment) today. To this day I can't think of that song without thinking of Abby when she did it for acting class! So Abby that one goes out to you! People are not a fan of that song at this school so I will probably not sing it ever again...but alas, I like it and will always think of Abby pretending to iron Colins jacket...or something like that:)

I also wanted to report that I completely pulled a Caitlyn today in Choir. Choir is horrible at Northwestern...I mean I suppose if you liked choir you wouldn't agree, but thats not, nor has it ever been me. The fact that I'm required to take it for one year infuriates me, even though I'm sure there are worse fates.

I'm in the community choir which is the lowest of the low. I specifically asked for this choir so

A. i could get away with not singing and

B. not have to go to choir three days a week.

The community choir meets every Monday from 7-9:30 and consists of not only all the awkward big non choir voices of the school but also community volunteer members....pure hell on earth I assure you (imagine a low budget church choir x 10). I've been trying to pre-game with $2 margaritas from Chili's before going and last Monday I was pretty tipsy and decided to write some erotic poetry interspersed with lyrics we were singing, one of my favorite verses was:

In my swollen busom

grant me peace

Your hand gently cups my soft flesh
Thumbs circle my tight rosey buds

Kyrie e eleison

But I digress...Today (possibly due to the strange pollens of Chicago) I was exhausted and could barely keep my eyes open so I slipped out from my back row seat and went up to the third floor and napped for an hour on the couches before heading down and joining the throng as they took their one break at the 8:30 mark. My friends noticed but the director came up and stood beside me and didn't say a thing. bahaha...remember when i did this in dance, Michelle, because we had pulled an all nighter.. Thankfully this time if the director had called me out I had my excuse all ready. "Why Dr. Harris, I'm so sorry, but I had a date with the Mary Jane":)

mmmmmm toes

One guess as to whose foot that is.

So good news! I am officially singing at the Classical Singer Convention in NYC at the end of May! Then you get to meet with a panel and they tell you what they think, etc. AAAAND I'm signed up for a bunch of other cool stuff including a one-on-one where you talk about the obstacles of your career. Mini therapy! YAY

Ew

I sang yesterday and must have pushed and now my voice is tired and I'm pissed. That is all.

photoooosss

what the shit?

I just realized I didn't think I had these posted on fb so, enjoyyyy. (also if anyone figures video out, i have a really good one from the last day of acting. it involves olivia and abby in each other's crotches. that's all i'm sayin..)
