First Outdoor Wedding

So, this week I played for my very first outdoor wedding. I never knew that playing for an outdoor wedding would be so much work!! It was insane. I borrowed a keyboard from the University, so I had to borrow an amp and keyboard stand as well. I had to load and unload everything by myself and get everything organized before the wedding began. I was placed directly in the sun, dressed in a full suit (coat and all). It rained like crazy a couple of hours before the wedding, then the sun came out - so it was very humid. It was tons of work, but I now know what to expect for the next one. Live and learn!!

This is going to be a busy year...

Well, school has started back and life is GREAT - but as hectic as ever. This semester in particular is going to be insanely busy, but hey, that's the fun of college! 16 hours of classes, working 10 hours a week in the Admissions Office, playing the piano at my church, Peer Leading a group of freshmen, and minoring in music (which requires attendance of 6 concerts per semester and a ton of practice time) should definitely make for one busy semester!! I am rooming with the same guy I roomed with last year - He and I get along extremely well.
Our room this year is much bigger than the one we were in last year, so that's pretty exciting. Tons of new guys are on our hall so it's been great getting to know them as well. I'm really excited to be back in the swing of things here at the Webb. Hope your school year is off to a great start and your college search is underway! Good luck class of 2009!!
