I leave Charleston on Friday to drive to Charlotte with some friends. Saturday, I fly out of the Charlotte airport to Chicago and then to LA where I will meet my fellow study abroad students who are studying at the University of Melbourne through AustraLearn. We then fly from LA to Brisbane and on to Cairns where we will spend the next few days getting to know each other, exploring, visiting the Great Barrier Reef, volunteering, and meeting some Australian animals.
I arrive in Melbourne on July 17th and will spend the next week in orientations and registering for classes and finding my way around Melbourne. Classes begin July 26th.
My goals for the next week are to:
As my musical adventures at home wind down, tonight is my last night of performing at the Village Playhouse in Red, White and Cash: A Musical Tribute to Johnny Cash. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to participate in this show! Last April/May/June the same cast and musicians played during Piccolo Spoleto so it was a lot of fun revisiting the music.

Some of my violin students gave a recital this afternoon. They all performed beautifully! There were solos and duets, pieces from the Suzuki Method and from the O'Connor Violin Method. Michelle and I even played the first movement of the Bach Double Violin Concerto. I am really going to miss all of them while I am gone!
My goals for the next week are to:- figure out what I am going to play for my first lesson and possibly for ensemble auditions in Melbourne (and practice!)
- finish packing and cleaning up the disaster that is my room
- make sure that I haven't forgotten anything!
