another month goes by.

It's been much too long since I've posted.

But here's a sample of what I've been up to lately:

My homework consists of chords and melodies.

My social life consists of practices and performances.

It couldn't get much better than this.

A Noteworthy Weekend.

I am thrilled to say that I am one of the newest members of

BYU's Women A Cappella Group

noteworthy

Perhaps you saw them on NBC's "The Sing Off" last year?

I couldn't be more excited!

back to school

It has been much too long.

Here's the main news:

School has started.

Here's some other news:

I auditioned for Women's Chorus.

And didn't make it.

Beyond that minor set back,

it's sure to be a great school year!

See ya around campus.

Namely in the HFAC.

Memories

I have been very busy lately volunteering to help with this year's "A Brand New Year" - a youth DVD created by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Remember the first time I was involved with Brand New Year?

It was a wonderful experience last time and is a wonderful experience this time as well.

I feel so blessed.

Guess who found a piano in Thailand?

I found a piano.

And played it.

Even if it was just a couple hymns.

My family and I attended church here in Bangkok.

When they had nobody to play the piano,

I was all too willing to fill in!

The opening hymn in Relief Society was "As Sisters In Zion."

As I played, the women sang in Thai and my family sang in English.

I was touched to think that despite language barriers,

music brings us together and

we are indeed all sisters in Zion.

Hello from Thailand!

You guessed it from the title: I'm in Thailand.

In case you're considering a visit,

Thailand is an amazing place!

It's hot and humid,

but the people are wonderful

and the landscape is beautiful.

Just for future reference,

I'd better make sure to bring a piano with me next time.

Hey look! I'm on youtube!

A little inspiration.

Yesterday I was asked if other artists and songs inspire my work.

My answer?

Of course.

Here are a few of my latest inspirations.

Jonny Vance

Sara Bareilles

Nickel Creek

Nik Day

Marié Digby

Some are global. Some are local.

Either way,

there are some pretty talented people out there.

Thanks for inspiring me.
