some clips of my last concert: :) we had a professional photographer come take these

my beautiful baby niece :) she's really starting to develop her own little cute laugh now (she's 8.5 months)

check out my dorky 1 minute fugue rap :) (a rap about the form of a fugue...in the form of a fugue) this was a blast to make and mix, it has like 10 different takes in it, and i sound like WALL-EEEEE in part of it beacuse we auto-tuned the whole thing. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=1055310

"springtime" ---i guess that includes snow?

hello everybody and welcome to the first week of my new semester!! luckily it isn't snowing...today...but let's keep our fingers crossed. i now live further from campus and don't adore the idea of continuing to fight the storm to get to class. It's my spring break this week so i will be spending it setting up my new house and getting some hours in at work, just prepping for next semester's load :) oh, and i should probably finish my state taxes...shoot...

my new living room :)

well the semester went out with a bang...it was such a crazy week but i still managed to have some fun to distract me from finals:



percussion family dinner at the snow building

PEEP WAR!!! ----this is actually the best way to celebrate easter, plus mine totally dominated.

i had several more of these that were much more gory...but i decided to spare the rest of the after shots. i know you guys are weak stomached.

new semester- new hair, sounds about right. actually i wanted the old color out of my hair (it had faded from black to kind of a weird red brown and i didn't like it)

this color my friend made up for me who works at the salon. it's what i wanted but i was really scared i was going to have purple hair when it was all through. the ingredients were as follows:

red violet, violet base, 4 color shots of red, one color shot of blue. yikes! but i'm happy with how it turned out :)

speaking of miracles--i'm really not sure how i pulled off the grades i did this semester. particularly in those classes i don't find it necessary to pay attention in. like science 101--who cares right? the subject could have been interesting...maybe...but my friend zack and i have such a hard time paying attention. all my notes i went to study before the final were just full of pictures and funny quotes. i thought i'd share with everyone how i look at my finest, in my earliest state, as zack deemed "neander-amber" these are hot hot hot.

last week of the semester!!

wow this crazy semester is not slowing down at all!

this week (besides finals and one more jury) i am moving! once i get everything worked out i'm sure it will be great- i'm really excited to move into a new ward and new stake. I will be living with 5 girls i've never met- it should certainly be interesting. i'm ready for a change though, and a new semester. I'm getting excited about my new classes, i can't believe this is already my 5th semester living at this school!

ps-HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!

general conference has been so great for me this weekend. it always seems that just listening to the prophet makes you forget all frustrations in your life. also, the easter bunny visited my house :)

this made the best conference breakfast ever! yum!

here are some more picture of my favorite group- RixStix! we got the chance to play in yet another awesome concert last week and suprisingly- it was a huge stress reliever. :) i actually love playing marching bass drums

here are some pictures of my new coolest hair do- thanks to my roommate cami :) she wanted to make sure i at least looked good for my juries in case i didn't play good....

here's just a clip of funny 12 second vid that i've named "interpretive dance"

it's what happens when you put too many music majors in a small room for too long. one of my friends was playing a recorder, and another friend jumped on the piano and starting accompanying her. it just sounded like some kind of "spiritual yoga music" and people walking into class were like "what the heck..." My friend greg- who's in this vid- served a performance mission in Nauvoo singing, dancing, and playing piano. so i started to dance around the room to this music and he stood up and started lifting me in the air. it was a great class bond, and one of my friends captured just a minute of it on her phone. good times. heehee.
