Angel Of Music

My recital was last night, and I actually played really well...if I do say so myself.

Not only did I play the Horn, but I accompanied a singer on the piano. I also turned pages and sang in a men's choir. That should be my last solo performance for the semester, and I'm really glad that its over with. I guess I'm earning the title of Angel of Music.

I've been so busy lately and have hardly had any time for any fun. Hopefully, I'll be able to have tons of fun this summer to make up for all the time lost during this semester. Summer is only four weeks away, and I can't wait! It will be so good to be home for awhile. I know I say it every time we have a break, but maybe I'll get to see some old friends....

I couldn't let today's post go by without mentioning the death of Terry Schiavo. Seeing all this unfold before me, I am constantly reminded of how valuable life is. I want to try my best to live each day to its fullest. I want to tell my friends and family how much I care, just in case I don't get to see or talk to them again. Maybe we should all try to do the same.

I just love to find sweet messages left for me when I come in from a hard day at school. I'm absolutely thrilled when someone sends me a message or changes my wall on facebook. I love getting e-mail. It's the little things in life that make the big things great.

So what are you waiting for? Go ahead. Live! This is the only life you get, you better not waste a second of it....

"My life has a superb cast and an excellent setting. The lighting is superb, and the score is award-winning. The special effects are decent, and the Author amazing! The only thing I'm having trouble with is the plot...."

PHANTOM'S VOICE: Brava, brava, bravissima . . .

MEG:
Christine, Christine...
(Phantom: Christine...)

Where in the world
have you been hiding?
Really, you were perfect!

I only wish
I knew your secret!
Who is your great tutor?

CHRISTINE:
Father once spoke of an angel
I used to dream he'd appear
Now as I sing, I can sense him
And I know he's here

Here in this room
he calls me softly
somewhere inside hiding

Somehow I know
he's always with me
he - the unseen genius

MEG:
Christine, you must have been dreaming, stories like this can't come true

Christine, you're talking in riddles, and it's not like you!

CHRISTINE:
Angel of Music!
Guide and guardian!
Grant to me your glory!

MEG(to herself):
Who is this angel? This...

BOTH:
Angel of Music!
Hide no longer!
Secret and strange angel

CHRISTINE:
He's with me, even now...

MEG:
Your hands are cold...

CHRISTINE:
All around...

MEG:
Your face, Christine, it's white...

CHRISTINE:
It frightens me...

MEG:
Don't be frightened...
