Current Books: The Three Musketeers, Alexandre Dumas
Current Playlist: Indigo Girls at the moment, especially "Get Out the Map" and "Watershed." Oh, and Become You, for a change (my fallback is usually Rites of Passage). Kind of loving "Starkville."

I'm exhausted and lonely and I hate my job and I miss school ( Read more... )

Oh, all right.

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away.

Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you.I've just remembered ( Read more... )

Gabriel Byrne as a priest--read: all black, all the time--almost makes up for how terrible Stigmata is. He's also d'Artagnan in Man in the Iron Mask--another bad movie, but Jeremy Irons, Gabriel Byrne and Gérard Dépardieu (sorry, John Malkovich, but you're really not my Athos) are the best Musketeers ever ( Read more... )

Well, that's the last of them. I've just submitted my online applications to Maryland and Houston, which means all I have to do now is make sure my recommendations go out, send transcripts to Houston, and get my pre-screening recordings together. Oy vey ( Read more... )

Going to see Whip It with Renée. Yay!

High notes are terrifying. And what's sad is that when I say "high notes" I'm talking about anything above an A. I KNOW, I know, my vocal cords got lasered *counts* five months ago, and not everything is going to be perfect. But come on, folks. I'm a soprano. A B-flat should not be giving me palpitations. But it totally is. Oh well ( Read more... )
