Handy singing tip: look for "Traditional Medicinals" tea in stores and try the Throat Coat. Opera singers and rock band singers alike swear by the stuff. I think the main active ingredients are slippery elm bark and liquorice root.
Anyway, it works like a charm, 'specially when you're doing a lot of singing at a stretch.

I just remembered you asked me how university was going...it's going really quite well, actually! I'm taking Sociology, Anthropology, a biology course, World Religions, and Latin this term. (And yes, Latin is my favourite.)
Best of all, though, I don't have any really homework-intensive courses, so I have lots of time to read...
