Oh Hai.

Lately I've been extraordinarily busy with school. After missing three days because of All State Chorus, I tried to start the new marking period with a bang. Grades for the first quarter came out on friday and thankfully I'm on Honor Roll! Hopefully I can keep my grades up this quarter.

Other than grades, the whole week was generally busy. Wednesday was Career Day and I met Nina Stotler! Even though I didn't get into a session with her, I went to talk to her after school. I asked about interships, networking, and tons of other stuff that I don't quite remember from being so shell shocked. Sadly, I didn't get a picture because I STILL don't have a new camera, but she did give me a card promoting her jewelry line.

Take a looksee:

It's a little blurry, but in the top right corner it says Nina Stotler. Von Kottowitz is the name of the jewelry line, and underneath is all the information.

Also, yesterday was the final performance for All State. It was really bittersweet, I'm happy to not have to wake up at 5:30 in the morning for 2 1/2 hour practices but I'll definitely miss all the friends I've made, the conductor, and singing the music. Everything was spectacular, the choir and orchestra together was almost unbelieveable. I'm superexcited to get my tee shirt and CD. I received this cute little pin as a first parting gift though; I love it.

The Pin:

Sorry for the extreme blurriness, but it says "NJ All State 2008, Chorus - Orchestra" and there's music notes running through the center.

My ID Badge:

Basically I used that to get around in the hotel in Atlantic City, and in order to get into NJPAC (New Jersey Performing Arts Center), yesterday.

So for now I'm sitting at home sick, in leggings, a tee shirt, and a scarf to keep my neck safe and sound so I don't lose my voice again. I'm just doing homework that I should've finished over the weekend. Expect a street style/inspiration post soon loves!
