Dude. That is so legit.

we had Convocation today.
usually extremely boring.

but wait.... we had a rock concert. yea thats whats up. actually, it was a pretty eccentric meeting.... we had the usual, "Welcome to our school" speeches, but then afterwards, they invited the new entering class by showing off some of the school's talent, which was, if i may say-legit. straight legit. no going around it. a vocal student, graduating in '11, gave a short speech, and then she did short set during the show afterwards. myspace.com/emilyelbert  she has incredible talent. probably the best female guitarist i've seen, and apparently voted one of '08's best new artists? sick.

from listening to the speakers, and watching everyone's talent, i was reminded yet again of how completely incredible it is to be here. and i keep asking myself why i am here. and when i do, i know, deep within all that i am, that this is where i am supposed to be. i feel so unworthy do be here, in all honesty. but that's where God so gently whispers in my ear and reminds me that that is why He's God, and im not. =] 

apparently, there were only three hundred fifty students granted admission this semester.... so unreal. Berklee is this incredible melting pot, full of immense creativity and stylistic differences. i've noticed that in my general makeup, i tend to take little bits of things i enjoy and somehow apply them to myself, whether thats in fashion, music, or people i honor and respect. i think that this is extremely applicable within Berklee.... everyone brings a little something, and it is so exiting! taking bits of everything, and puting them together, to make one, united, completely original and unique sound. how is that not awesome? 

it's going to be a very interesting semester=]


loveyoubunchesbye!
