Had quite the interesting day today...
I had a job interview at 12:30 at Santa Monica Music Center . So I left the house at 12:10, figuring that that would be plenty of time to get to the place. Lo and behold, it was let's-all-drive-under-30mph day in Santa Monica. WHAT THE HELL. So 12:30 rolls around, still a few blocks away so I decided to ( Read more... )

So I get this phone call last night at like 10:15. it's the neighbors from downstairs asking me if I had time to do two piano lessons this morning. When I went down to meet them last week, they found out that I was music ed at Pepperdine and were thinking about making their kids take piano. But come on... 12 hours notice?? I hesitated for a ( Read more... )

So I got an IM from one of my friends this afternoon, and just found out that an acquaintance I knew from Pepperdine (who actually now that I think about it... I've hung out with him quite a few times) was in the ICU in NY. It's just crazy to think that any moment the unexpected can happen. Here's his website Read more... )

For some reason, this version of the church I used to go to was a version of Christ meets the wild west gone wrong. Everyone was in spurs and cowboy boots. So word gets out that I ( Read more... )

Going back to KC for the week. Will be back in LA June 7!

I just got back from China last night, and I absolutely CAN NOT sleep. The trip was pretty fun, I got to learn a lot about my mom and grandma and our relationships. My mom called it a "going back to our roots" trip because we went and visited a ton of places where my grandma grew up in. I'll probably post some pictures later ( Read more... )

I am graduating from Pepperdine University tomorrow. It's weird how things are playing out. It just goes to show exactly how much control I don't have over the future. Sorry for the vagueness, but I just don't want to jump the gun on certain opportunities that have recently come up. One thing for sure though, I will be teaching piano lessons to ( Read more... )
