My Recent Endeavor.


I recently became the new youth choir director at my church, Airline Baptist Church. With starting my mentorship this week at Airline, I've already learned quite a bit just from planning and sorting things for youth choir. I've learned to compromise, organize, and be on task and take a stand. I had to quickly learn what's the best way to set up MY particular choir and how we should go about practice (times, procedures, etc). Overall, I am overjoyed with excitement with my new role. In my preparation for starting choir this week, I arranged a song using noteflight.com for us to start singing in the near future. The minister of music at Airline (aka my boss and uncle) and his wife (aka my aunt and his assistant that keeps him on track) have helped me set up and start this glorious opportunity. Working with them is going to be a joy and exciting as I get to learn new things with Mike and Janice.

And on to college. I have a tiny, fantastically wonderful story to tell about a college I visited last Thursday. I got to sit down with people at the Winshape Foundation, the admissions office, and the music staff at Berry College. It was an awesome opportunity to express my interest in attending Berry in my future. I've been looking at this particular college for a while now and it is nothing but awesome. I fear applying, as the competition is fierce but I am fully confident and know that I am capable of achieving greatness whether or not I get to attend Berry in particular. Applying can be quite stressful but it's unique and an awesome way to see your own life unfold.
