It's been a long time since I've posted to LiveJournal.  Not sure if I remember how it goes, but I'm happy to have at least remembered my username.  

No more Amahl.  No more Night Visitors.  Tonight's performances were the last.  I'm sure the rehearsal withdrawals will start soon.  What will I do with my time?  Oh, well.  School will start again soon, and I won't have any free time at all.  I'm hoping I can be in La Traviata this Spring, though.  That's a bit of a step up from Amahl, but I think ( Read more... )

Not forever, of course, but for a few weeks.  Next week is still going to be crazy.  There are four rehearsals for Amahl and the Night visitors next week, all from 5 to 10PM.  20 hours.  I don't even work that many hours per week these days!  C'est la vie.  At least it's in Athens this time.

I've seen two films this weekend, "I Am Legend" and "The ( Read more... )

I took my Italian final tonight.  It was pretty easy, except for the fact that the words from Amahl and the Night Visitors kept popping into my head..."Mi piacciono gli spaghetti - this is all we shepherds can offer you!"

Only the biology final is left, and then I can relax until next semester.  Well, there is one more run of Amahl, but that should ( Read more... )

I just got back from Greensboro, Georgia, where I spent four days rehearsing and performing in Amahl and the Night Visitors.  I jumped into it at the last minute after my vocal instructor got me into a singing seminar for UGA voice students.  The professor hosting the seminar stopped me on the way out and asked me if I wanted to be in the chorus in ( Read more... )

I just repaired the brakes on my bike (bicycle, that is, not a "hawg" or anything).  I feel like a master mechanic, if a master mechanic is what it takes to unscrew a bolt, pull a wire tight and screw back the bolt.  Now maybe that big hill on Baxter won't feel like the "Scream Machine" anymore. 

I just finished writing an Italian paper describing my apartment.  Like everything else, this little dump sounds much better when described in a Romance language ( Read more... )

Looks like I'll be doing a recital in mid-November.  My instructor said I could wait until later if I didn't feel I was ready, but I guess I have to start somewhere.  I'll be doing one or two Italian songs, "Sebben Crudele" and/or "Gia il Sole dal Gange."  I've been performing with the Glee Club, but it's been a long time since I've done anything ( Read more... )

Okay, I've been away from LJ for a long, long time.  Does anyone still remember me?  Better yet, do I still have any LJ friends after disappearing for a couple of years ( Read more... )
