Today was one of those days where I couldn’t resist the urge to soak in the sun and enjoy some beautiful weather. Warm sun, slight breeze, blue ocean, people tanning, children playing. It was nice to be away from the hustle-bustle of my daily routine and be able to have time to myself, minus … Continue Reading
Photos from Sunday evening at the Palace of Fine Arts for Fuzjko Hemming’s piano recital. I was in awe of both the beautiful architecture of the building and the beauty in which she played her music. Her 2-hour program consisted of Chopin and Liszt etudes, Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition,” and 2 pieces … Continue Reading

It really does feel different when you don’t have to practice for lessons, masterclasses, or recitals. But I’m starting to think that this might actually be good for me, to be able to … Continue Reading
Additional photos from my SF trip! I know I sound like a tourist, but I finally got a picture with the Golden Gate bridge (the pictures from when I was a 5-year-old are a bit outdated). My boyfriend took us to a semi- remote area near the ocean, where you can walk along … Continue Reading
