Final Exhibition Day!!! So breakfast was at 8:30, our last one all together. Then I had a cello "lesson"/warm-up with Dr.Lara to practice for my performance at 9:30, followed by dance rehearsal with Margaret to go through Piper's and my solo and duet. Piper and I then went back to her dorm room to begin our hair and makeup until my mom came for checkout which was at 11. So I got all my suitcases and bags out of my room before turning in my key card and dorm room key, I got to keep the lanyard. :) Andrea, Austin, Margaret, Dr. Zyko, Noel, Eli, Piper, Avery, and I ate lunch in the Terrace where they had pizza. Shortly before we all left, Kyle came by as well. We all got to Trahern around 1, where we saw the Art Exhibition before getting ready/warming up... The program went: 1. My Ballet Solo 2. Piper's Ballet Solo 3. Art Talk 4. Avery & Grace's Duet 5. Illy's Singing Solo 6. Piper's & My Modern Duet 7. Theatre Showcase 8. Wearabl...

Ballet and Modern this morning were a bit rough because I couldn't do any forward bends, head rolls, turns, or spins. So yeah, imagine trying to dance. It was alright though, I managed for most of the classes. :) At 1:30 I had my last lesson with Dr.Bailey which I was so happy to have and we worked on my Final Exhibition piece which was GETTING SO GOOD! <3 Right after class, Dr.Lara drove Piper and I back to the dorms to get ready for our 2nd Nashville excursion. This time however, my lovely and wonderful friend Mary Mac from Watauga last year, joined us!<3 So the ride there I talked with her a bit, then our first stop was Hatch Show Print. Literally, wow. It was so amazing and cool. We got a tour of the print, the press', and saw some awesome posters being made. I stopped in the gift shop and bought myself a coffee mug, a button, a pin, and a postcard for my parent's to put on the fridge. We also walked around the little gallery out front which was pretty...

Average beginning to the day with breakfast and "morning meeting" where we all just sit and stare at our phones until it's time to go to class, haha, but it's perfect<3. Today, my day began with a cello lesson with Dr.Lara. Which was both fabulous and distressing. She's just a very intense professor and sometimes it's very intimidating for me, but it went relatively well. At the same time, Piper had a piano lesson with Dr.Wood and then Dr.Lara offered to drive us both back to the dance building for class. After lunch I had a voice lesson with Dr. Bailey which was FREAKING AWESOME BECAUSE I LOVE HIM! <3 Okay, we chose the song for the final exhibition and started plunking through it which was exciting. Then I had rehearsal with Piper and Laquimah for an hour before Interdisciplinary where we researched images of things that inspired us for McLean to print them off. Next was a film music class with Dr.Lara, she played clips of music where we had to gu...
