Taylor Capellaro, KeelyAnn Kelly, and myself after our concert in Lagerquist

After completing our fall concert series at PLU, I feel right at home. It wasn't until I was singing "Beautiful Savior" at the end when I realized that my place in this choir, university, and family is all I could ever ask for.

I am still walking on clouds after last night's concert. I can still feel the energy of the performance and the thrill of being onstage. I live for that feeling.

Without a doubt, this has been an experience I will never forget. It is really hard to "move on" from the high school choir, but university is where its at! I am with a great group of people who are all dedicated to an amazing cause: music. We all work together to create such a beautiful sound in an amazing hall.

I will say, that I was nearly out of my skin during Chorale's warm ups. I was chosen to lead them.

Imagine you're driving a huge truck. This truck is strong, yet bumpy and sometimes hard to control.

No imagine you're driving the smoothest BMW ever. It responds perfectly, it purrs, and it hauls ass. Yeah. That's what leading warm ups for Chorale was like. Amazing.

To my fellow ensemble members, I thank you for letting me be a part of this family. I thank you for introducing me to the music I was born to live in. :-)
