Wow
It sure is crazy that I leave for SF in two days. These next two days are going to be a little crazy running around trying to get everything done, but it is all worth it when I know how wonderful it will be.
I never travel without one.....
Have a wonderful day.

Moving onwards
When you have opening night and then closing night you don't have those bumps of low energy.
So today, I am moving on to the next frame of mind... Merola!! I am so excited to be getting ready to go. I am packing this year with a good idea of what I will need (which is helpful.. so that this year I don't have to call home for warmer clothes! ha!)
My top 10 list of things that I am looking forward to in San Francisco: (in no particular order)
1. Amazing produce... wow. You can actually eat the 100 mile diet and be pleased!
2. Blue bottle coffee. I am not even a huge coffee drinker, but wow...
3. Seeing my old friends from last year Merolini!!
4. Working with an amazing Faculty, Staff and Colleagues
5. Amici di Merola picnics!
6. The pizza right by Dolores Park.. I can't remember the name of the place..
7. The views
8. The hills... they do the body good even though we curse them often
9. Papaya salad... I know where to get one when I need it
10. Window shopping
Now it is time to get up and continue memorizing....
Have a lovely day.

Blondie
Ahhh I love this career!!
Just am getting home from a lovely evening of Mozart as I sang Blondchen with Opera Nova Scotia and I had a ball. I need to remember this feeling because it is the reason why we deal with all of the faults of this career. For these exact moments. I am on my performance high and don't want to come down!!
Happy as a clam (as my mom would say)
Cheers!

Getting "pumped up"
Happy Spring!!
To those who spring brings nasal congestion and itchy eyes, well I am sorry! But for me this year, miraculously, that is NOT the case!
This spring has been a little nuts though in every other aspect. I was finishing up shows of carmen, while rehearsing for Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail, and Postcard while teaching, working and heading to new york for auditions. There was one week that I thought I was sure to get to sick, but I have made it out alive.
I am now in rehearsals for Blondchen, and at the same time running to the practice room to continue memorizing Postcard. There are high G's in this role that I am determined to make beautiful, although they feel just slightly screechy at this point... words and high g's should not be combined! I'd like to buy a vowel please..
Just a quick note tonight, as I am heading to my new love... Moksha yoga. Really any type of yoga keeps me happy though...
