Singing

Watching people perform always makes me want to sing more. There are moments when I realize how large of a role music has played in my life. Sometimes, I miss my voice lessons - and then I realize how ridiculously busy I am and that there is no way I could keep up with lessons, if I had them, this semester. Next year will be a strange year. It will be the first time that I won't be singing in choir or taking private lessons since...well, since I can remember. Wow, I just realized that I have always been singing. Whether it be my grade school/high school choirs, the Los Angeles Children's Chorus, musical theatre productions, or private lessons, I literally haven't gone more than several months without singing in a formal setting. The longest I've gone without it was this past year, from the beginning of summer until the beginning of this semester in January, and that time away from music made me realize how much I really do enjoy it. There's just no way my schedule can handle the commitment next year and that's kind of sad. Let's see how this goes.

Blog Change

Hey guys, so I know I've done a really bad job of updating this over the past couple of months and I apologize. This summer has been a little busier than I thought it would be and I honestly have not had much time to enjoy some good summer music (except for the weekend that I spent in Ojai in June that I meant to write about but never really got around to...oops). Anyway, I just want to let you all know that I am going to Vienna for the next 4 and a 1/2 months starting on August 16th! Therefore, this blog will turn into my travel blog. I'm sure it will include plenty of stories about music outings (don't worry, I've already looked up concerts happening in the area and I've marked three or four down in my calendar). I'm also hoping to register for a music class that will include trips to the opera! So, hopefully, I will be able to keep the music theme going at least somewhat. But, you will also be reading about all my European adventures - at least, the ones that I choose to share with the world.
HOWEVER, I don't have a new name for this blog! I want it to be something clever and fun and obviously Vienna- or Austria-related. So, if you have any ideas, please let me know! Because I literally have nothing (except for some random inside joke with my friends that no one else will understand).
Thanks for reading and I will update this once I begin my adventures abroad! :]
