LAAF
REALLY REALLY AWESOME DAY.
I spent the whole day at LAAF (by myself) going to classes (studio performance, essential listening, movement with the backbeats) and listening to A Cappella performances.
Then spent the night at the concert where Bruin Harmony, The Backbeats (sooo good) Jake Moulton (vocal percussion) and Mosaic (absolutely amazing) performed.

This made me love A Cappella, and music in general, so much more and I am so glad I went!
(... even though I knew no one there...)
Just a little side note:
The essential listening class, which sounds boring, was one of the most inspirational, intriguing, intellectual, informative classes I've been to, and it made me SO EXTREMELY EXCITED for college . We listened to and analyzed music from Lil Wayne and Eminem, to Paul Simon, to Rihanna and Beyonce, to classical music in Latin.
Because of the hour and a half I spent in that seminar, I will look at music differently from this point forward. Shit. It was that intense.

mlk day
"Dr. King devoted his life to serving others, reminding us that "human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable. Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle—the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals." Every day, each of us can play a part in continuing this critical work." Barack Obama

"You know the things I'm afraid of
I'm not afraid to tell
And if we ever leave a legacy
It's that we loved each other well
Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people
Trying on the treasures of youth
But a road that's fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash
And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth
Cause we're okay, we're fine
Baby I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two
Now we're talking bout a difficult thing
And your eyes are getting wet
I took us for better and I took us for worse
Now don't you ever forget
Now the steel bars between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
And the closer I'm bound in love to you
The closer I am to free"
