Forever Broadway Hits San Francisco!!!

   

4Ever Broadway last night - Opening Night at the Herbst -

OMG - We did it!!!

Seriously - we did it!  I am so so sleepy now and it's so late, but there's a little rascally dascal in my head that's buzzing around!  Time to Blog!  I want to celebrate all the joy and excitement from my show on Saturday night, mixed in with the cozy family-vibe of my recital on Friday and a heart-warming service this morning to top it off!  Wiki is snoring quietly next to me, my parents just got on a flight back to WI, my tyboy is with Mama Christine in their 5-star tribal hut, my fridge is full of fresh choy, snowpeas, and dim sum... what more could a girl want?  Well... if you really wanna know... there's always more - more dreams, more wishes, more desires...!  I feel so blessed to know so many inspiring and talented people - they are all teaching me so so so much about singing, dancing, living and laughing.  I feel so so grateful for the support from my family, mom & dad, Cha & Ralph, Keith & Amy, Nikki & Pat, Susan, Ty & Mama C (in march!).  And one more thing before I fly to dreamland, to Grandma Miller: you've been my Grandma with a capital G since the day I was born, you fill my childhood memories with sunshine and gumdrops and bluegills and pickles, and I love you so much and I know you are safe and protected.

THANK YOU!!!

You Raise Me Up

It's official!  I am beginning my new position as Soloist for the Church of Christ Scientist: Point Richmond on Valentine's Day.   This is the start of a new musical journey for all of us because we are going in a new direction there and really aiming to introduce a newer and more "current" approach to music.  I'll be working with the talented pianist Vera Breheda and another fabulous singer Dana Anderson.  On Valentine's Day, I will be singing "You Raise Me Up", one of Josh Groban's hits.  How sweet to start my new position on the day of LOVE!!!

Singing and Dancing - My dreams come true!!!

I will be performing in this gigantic event!  It's called "Forever Broadway" and it's directed by John Bisceglie.  Everyone should come cuz it's going to an extravaganza like none other.  We are in now rehearsal and I can definitely say that there are some amazingly talented people in this show!

Review of Celebration of Craftswomen 2009

This is a wonderful artist from Texas named Heather Harris and I at the Celebration of Craftswomen.   I am so glad I did both weekends this year and will definitely be back next year!  What a great event - Teevan Productions and The Women's Building put on a super festival.  And it was one of my favorite shows for meeting awesome and interesting people and sharing my work with them.

Chinese Butterflies at the JMSG Silent Auction

Auction night at Julia Morgan School for Girls - 11/07/09

Where last September I taught Chinese Brush Painting to a wonderful class of 6th Graders!

Those paintings hanging above us are the amazing results from that workshop!

The event was organized by my Mills College friend, Melody Ferris.

After the girls, and their advising teacher Jason, painted their gorgeous butterfly paintings, Melody and I matted and framed them.  We just had to get a picture of the lovely paintings arranged on my couch that day!  We were so happy at how nice they turned out.  Each girl also chose their own Chinese name to sign their paintings.  

Fun Fotos just for fun!

Happy Family!
