Whoa. Where to even begin?! It feels like AGES since last Friday. I’ve taken six flights, explored two cities, successfully completed three auditions, and made new friends along the way. I’ve navigated planes, cars, trains, buses, and walked a TON in between. I’ve imagined grad school life in two completely different places, and pushed for musical perfection more than ever. I have a renewed love for flute after seeing two incredible concerts in Houston, and a renewed appreciation for the small pleasures in life after visiting San Francisco (sipping fresh-squeezed juice on the pier, befriending complete strangers, watching brightly colored buildings blur together from the train window, etc.). And in between it all, I finally learned to find joy on airplanes…each flight gave me time to sit, collect my thoughts, appreciate the diverse American landscape, listen to wonderful music (after reaching 10,000 feet, of course ;), and prepare for the next challenge ahead.
I just couldn’t choose four images to represent the week, so I’m posting 16 instead. These are just a few snippets from this whirlwind of a week.
