would be. I wanted to specifically study voice and viola. Unfortunately I had to choose one or the other for my major. When I auditioned for the different colleges: “University of Northern Colorado”, “Colorado University”, and “Colorado State University” , I still did not know what my focus would be. I decided to audition for the choral and instrumental department. The auditioning process was rigorous, competitive, and very nerve racking. I was not very experienced in soloistic performing. I…

Yes, I arrived late and my chances had decreased. This would not stop me, though. During breakfast, lunch, and dinner in Mississippi State University’s cafeteria, I would pleasantly take a seat at a table where I knew not a single face and end up leaving knowing them all. We exchanged many conversations like what city we came from, how many siblings we endured, our favorite ice creams, careers we were suggesting, our favorite brands of clothing, and then came what we were running for. I told…
