Five more days...
I've only got five more days of law school, period. How crazy is that? In about five weeks, I will be a law school graduate. It's hard to believe that the LSU Chapter of my life is finally coming to a close. I play my final Symphonic Winds concert on Thursday and my final Wind Ensemble concert on Tuesday the 22nd. I'll make it through Sym Winds just fine......however, the wind ensemble concert will be another story. The waterworks will be quite present for that event. I'm fairly certain Wickes has something up his sleeve in the way of an award for me...but we shall see. I suppose 8 years of band at LSU is a little crazy!!
I'm done with the King and I out at the high school...now moving on to West Side Story with New Orleans Opera and LPO. I'm playing 8 instruments in the pit, yup, count em (piccolo, flute, oboe, English horn, clarinet, bass clarinet, tenor, and bari sax!) It's the infamous Reed III book from WSS that I've gotten. It's pretty awesome, as I'm getting more attention than I deserve, but I'm loving it. And god, WSS of all the shows I could be playing? The score is freaking amazing.
And now for some lyrics from the King and I which explains my life so much right now!
I have dreamed that your arms are lovely,
I have dreamed what a joy you'll be.
I have dreamed every word you whisper.
When you're close,
Close to me.
How you look in the glow of evening
I have dreamed and enjoyed the view.
In these dreams I've loved you so
That by now I think I know
What it's like to be loved by you,
I will love being loved by you.
Alone and awake I've looked at the stars,
The same that smile on you;
And time and again I've thought all the things T
hat you were thinking too.
I have dreamed that your arms are lovely,
I have dreamed what a joy you'll be.
I have dreamed every word you whisper.
When you're close,
Close to me.
How you look in the glow of evening
I have dreamed and enjoyed the view.
In these dreams I've loved you so
That by now I think I know.
What it's like to be loved by you.
I will love being loved by you.
