Hello!
So, quite a bit has happened these last few weeks! First of all, I got surprising news news over spring break that I would be an RA (resident adviser) next year! They have yet to tell me where I will be placed, crossing my fingers that I am in the same hall that I have been in this year so that I will get to work with freshmen music majors :) That would be my first option but really im just thrilled to have the job! This means that I will only have to pay for tuition next year, cutting my cost pretty much in half! wow! amazing. also, it will give me more experience working with people, and problem solving. Plus, listening to people complain about life was pretty much what I did contently in high school. So, excited to get back to helping people with their issues again!
Second, I have OFFICIALLY applied to the education program here at CWU! meaning that once I take the west-b and get finger printed I can officially be a music ed major! I turned in my application, recommendations, and transcripts today... pheww weight off my shoulders!
In addition, my last quarter of my first year is in motion! This quarter is competing for the most stressful one yet (im sure i have many more in front of me) with a full load of 18 credits (the most you can take before you are overload) - Music theory, ear training, piano, band, lessons, asian studies, and world religions - im going to be one busy music major! To top it off, at the end of this quarter I have to jury up to the next level of flute lessons and pass the piano proficiency test (10 min. of playing scales, chords, transposing accompaniment, choir accompaniment, repertoire pieces and to make things fun = sight reading!!!) translation = DEATH
any who.... im doing well for now, two days of the quarter down... toooo many to go!
hope you are all doing well! :)

You will rock as a music teacher!! My little guy has great internal music issues.... however, he refuses to allow them to appear to anyone else. He has music memorized in his head, but refuses to participate/sing/perform... whether at church/school/home. He will hear a song and say.. 'that is the song from ____'. He will occasionally get caught singing on pitch for his stuffed animals, but otherwise, it is limited to banging percussions instruments when he feels the need to be 'loud'.
