Woah. It's been a whiiiile since I've been on here. Thanks to those who actually look to even see if I have updated. I get bored with myself most of the time, so way to go! So- I graduated from college... pretty cool, eh? If my degree wasn't in vocal performance I would be making money right now instead of hanging around the house.
No worries, though, I've got a few auditions lined up for the fall and a great job singing all summer- I have nothing at all to complain about. My family is great, my friends are great (most are abandoning single-hood and getting married this summer but its okay... some of my best friends are either marrying each other or are marrying people I absolutely adore), and 
I'm excited about life.I guess a lot has happened since we've last talked. ABT Spring Party was on the Gateway Clipper. We danced, we ate, we just had a great time. (That picture is of me and Robbie at Spring Party :-)). Another thing I got to do was camping at Cook's Forrest with the girls on my freshman hall from GCC.
Twelve girls in a 2 bedroom cabin was awesome! It was so much fun- with hiking, bug bites, s'mores, and ghost stories. Next time you want a good story, ask me about the "I see your hiney" incident. Hehe. Good times. That picture is of my roommates and I (Lori, Ruth, and Leigh). I miss them already. BUT- speaking of roommates... I got to spend an entire 5 days in Tahoka, Texas with Leigh 
(the one on the far right and the one laughing hysterically on the left) a few weeks ago. I flew down to see her and it was just great. We saw longhorns, had a Dixie-dog and watched some amazing lightning storms. It was so great to finally see where she grew up. I've heard about it for so long and I got to see it for myself! It was just how I pictured it- flat and hot! There they are: Mark, Amy, Leigh, and Vivian. I am so blessed to have these people in my life. And finally the next wonderful thing to happen was that my brother-in-law graduated from the Ohio State University with his PhD! Isn't he cute in his robe!? Congratulations, Dr. Nicholas John Dekker!!! So proud of you!Well-- I'm leaving for the summer on Saturday... talk to you when I'm up in New York.
God Bless!
