So after several months without posts, I have decided to start posting in this livejournal again. Now why would I do such a thing? I now think I have things to talk about and thoughts that I want documented in some sort of way. Why I choose to do it on here I do not know; however, this is just the way it is. So what the hell I have been doing since I last posted on here? So many things have changed. I will elaborate on some of these events with you all. Well I have started auditioning to conservatories so I can finally get out of the joke that is ESU. I already had my audition to the New England Conservatory and it went so well. I really liked what I felt and saw in Boston. I could easily see myself living there and going to school there. This coming Saturday I have my audition to the Boston Conservatory. Bernie is coming with me to accompany my pieces so that will go prety well. I look forward to it. On the topic of Bernie and I, well we have been doing pretty well. We are still together 9 months and still strong. Isn't that crazy? I remember being so lonely last year and longing for a loving relationship and now that I have it it seems so unreal. I still can't believe that I have this. So yeah its lovely. After my audition to the Boston Conservatory I have two more auditions left. One at Cincinatti and one at the Manhattan School of Music. I am really hoping to go to the Manhattan School of Music. That would be so wonderful. Other than auditioning I am currently involved with the Amici Opera based in the Phildelphia Area. I have a minor role in the opera William Tell. It's pretty neat since this is my first official opera gig. I like it. I finished doing two performances for this "Italian Garden" class. We pretty much made a show of our own. I lost so many Saturdays because of it but now that it's over I kind of miss it. That's just weird. In the summer I'm also going to be in the operetta Die Fledermaus with the tenor role of Alfred. So many great things are finally happening. Looking back a year ago I would have never imagined having all these great opportunities before. I am so fortunate for this. Now on the topic of ESU. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ESU remains a joke and I am just getting this semester out of the way and hoping for another 4.0. Eventhough the school is a joke, I do like my classes. So I guess it won't be so bad right? It's just too bad that so many people at that school are well...."jacked up." That's pretty much the only way I can describe it. I cannot wait to for next year when I can be at a school with better people. (The keyword in that previous sentence was BETTER!) So what lies ahead for me? Well, I don't really know whats to come. All I know is that I'm taking things one day at a time and that seems to be working. I feel a lot of great changes are taking place and eventually all the hard work that's taking place on all ends will pay off. It's a nice feeling. For the first time in quite some time I feel that I am finally in control of my life. I haven't felt this way since I was 17 and too believe I'm turning 21 in May is crazy. Life is just passing me by. It's pretty crazy. At the end of the day I feel pretty good about where I'm at. I haven't said that in a long time.
