what could have been a terribly dramatic weekend, was not. Graduation was last weekend and I was supposed to sing for the commencement and the dinner before to honor the honorand (person who gives the commencement speech). Anyway I expected some tears, only because I couldn't participate in the ceremony because of the one class I have to take over the summer. I couldn't graduate, but I had to sing and go through all of the motions. Anyway it was anything but sad. I had a blast. The honorand was an amazing woman, Johnetta Beeches Cole. She was so sweet to me, and I really enjoyed the conversations I got to have with her. She is a strong individual with a fair amount of experience in the world of academia, and I could not have enjoyed her more. The day of commencement was not even bad at all. I was so proud to sing for all of my friends graduating. It really was a great day. And the after-parties were didn't hurt either. Oh! speaking of which! I went to a lake party in Wilkesboro, NC on Sunday. We had lots of fun; however, getting there was TERRIBLY challenging! There was a billboard on the way which said
THE ANSWER TO METH?
JESUS
You can enjoy that. I did, as you can imagine. I tried to find a picture of it, but I couldn't! Oh! While on this road trip to Asheville, Wilkesboro, and back I memorized the entire Seussical CD. Which is a little problematic if you want to sing a song and the only thing in your mind is "amazing mazzie"... people don't really look fondly at you I have discovered.
Now that I am back, I have to learn all of my words for the show this weekend. Especially the words to, "Corner of the Sky". That song is senseless and boring, hence I do not know it. Who knew opening would creep up on me! I always get excited when I get to perform for people, and this is no different, I am anxious for an audience!
Today also marks the recommencing of Thee job search. I am sure to find something this week!
