"Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you've never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more.

Theme Feature 1: All Things Red!
RED: The Passionate, The Intense, Deep, Bold... The Vibrant, The Fiery, Alluring, Invigorating.
Red is in itself an expression of art. The color that speaks out what words cannot. For all those who love red, as much as i do, i bring the best of my favorites- a collection of Red Art.
Thanks to all the deviants whose art inspired me enough to create this journal and feature their work in it. I love them all.
I play trombone. I spend most of my time in rehearsals, and I love it. If I'm not in class, drinking coffee or cooking weird food, I'm probably watching a movie with Cillian Murphy in it or listening to Muse.

Halfway through my MM degree in Vancouver. Loving every minute of it.
That man I mentioned last summer? Didn't last long, thank God.
Currently writing a piece for brass quintet and tape and I'm soooo excited about it.
Life is basically awesome. :)
Life update: I officially have a college degree. I graduated a couple weeks ago with a Bachelor of Music degree in Trombone Performance. Woo! I'm planning to go to grad school to continue my musical studies this fall, hopefully in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Yayyyyyy!
Also, I finally have a man to call my very own. (pff) He's great. I'm lucky to have found him. :)
Went to Europe last June! France and Germany. It was basically the coolest thing I've ever gotten to do, and I can't wait to go back. When I'm not feeling so lazy I'll probably upload some of my pictures from the trip. A few of them are already posted on my tumblr, in case you're curious. http://cupcakesandcoffeestains.tumblr.com/
Starting my last year of undergrad education this fall. Hopefully I'll be going on to grad school next year, although I have no idea where. UC Boulder and Portland State are high on my list at the moment, but I haven't heard any of their ensembles yet, so that could easily change.
Despite a few bumps in the road,
