new beginnings

well, not really. continued beginnings? continued continuing?....

Today is my first day back and it looks quite empty. 1 class and 1 masterclass later and I'll be home cooking up leftovers once again.

Seems like I can never solidify an accompanist on time no matter how hard I try. This was my exact problem last year, and yet again, due to schedule flipping, I may be accompanist-less for my first week back, scrambling to find someone who can fit into my lesson time (made with that prior accompanist who now cannot accompany). Singer drama before classes even begin. I love it.

This week I think I have eaten dinner at so many different residences that my own leftovers might be unedible. It's been great seeing people again and getting back into bloomington life...one of my goals this year is to be more social, particularly with the singer crowd which sometimes overwhelms me. I guess there's not enough time in this life to be hermity, so I should get over my quiet self and get out of the apartment more. ...it's just so cozy here. Haha.

Cheers to a year started by batches and batches of chocolate chip pancakes :)
