i'm going crrrrrrazy
this weekend was so fantastic. when i say that i had a great weekend, you all immediately probably think of me being insanely hyper, drinking tons of red bull, and just being crazy and doing nothing productive....well this weekend was so different...but in all honesty it was possibly my favorite....
saturday i woke up at 5am! uggh....and got in a van at 6:15am! to go to Eastern (in Ypsilanti) to accompany for NATS which is a big vocal competition....with Mrs Dykstra, Chris, Issac, Maggie, Megan, and then Libby, Jared, and Katie eventually came too...yeah it was early...and God knows it was a loooooong day but hey it was so worth it!
i work with some of the best people ever. katie is by far one of the top two singers i've ever worked with/heard/whatever. hands down. she is amazing and i can only hope that all of you guys get to hear her someday. needless to say she won and it was fantastic! :) lol but that's beside the point. haha
i think saturday re-affirmed how much I love what I do. I love accompanying. Period. End of story. I love my job.....yeah. And I want to do it. So here I go :)
Funny moments of the trip:
-chris falling asleep on maggie on the ride over
-mrs. d getting lost about 4 times
-running over the curbs numerous times!
-mcdonalds at 6:30 in the morning! haha
-Chris's quote: "Yeah they look like NATS kids....just run them over....less competition."
-Issac talking about how we are out of the Hope bubble haha
-Eating lunch in the cafeteria...yikes!
-Reminiscing with Libby about the good old days back in Flint! lol
-Katie winning!
-Making fun of that total divo singer guy who we all wanted to just strangle!
-Katie's cough scaring me and making me jump!
-That girls high note that just about jolted me out of my seat!
-Backstage- "Are you Stephanie Maloney?" ahahah
-"Turbessi. Hoybe." "I think she's losing her mind."
-The whole car ride home with Libby and Katie...TALKING ABOUT VIENNA! :) ahhhh. the possibilites. lol And realizing how similiar Katie and I are and how much we have in common...soulmates! haha And just being able to relate to friends who I really wasn't that close with but now feel like we're tight....and just understanding that there are people out there who are like me and have the same beliefs and views and morals and ideals and it's nice. For sure. :)
Yeah I pretty much don't even remember everything/can't write it all but it was a great weekend....well just great Saturday pretty much because it was the longest day ever. lol
I had fun. It was a good time had by all! :) Maybe...hahahaha
AND now comes high stress time....it's already begun....
