Da Capo al Fine




'Da Capo al Fine' is a musical term indicating that the musician is to go back to the beginning and play or sing the piece through to the end. This blog will be a journal I keep as I return to where I belong: music. I am so excited about being a student once again this fall at The Boston Conservatory. It is there that I will learn all the dance I ever wanted, all the acting I never got and probably more singing than I thought possible. It will be a real live dream come true! And my best friend, Scott, is following me there, with more support and enthusiasm than I deserve.


Yesterday, we took a walk along Lake Michigan at Promontory Point in Hyde Park on the rocks, which we haven't done in a long time because of the cool spring. There were hundreds of crab apple trees among others, in full bloom. I had to gather a bunch because they make me happy, with the scent sending me straight back to eight years old in my front yard. Scott gave me a kiss under this tree's petal-laden branches that reminded me I am not, however, eight anymore... The flowers and beautiful glowing skyline of Chicago don't feel as if a goodbye is around the corner. I wish I could go back to the beginning and play through to the end of our time in Chicago, making sure to smell more flowers along the way.
