Jessica has been away at college for over two weeks. Last week were her first
classes. Also, last week she auditioned for and was accepted as an Alto in
the CMU classical repertory chorus directed by
Robert Page. You can read her delight at singing again in her
First choir practice blog entry today.
We talked with Jessica by phone Sunday night and by
Skype yesterday afternoon. My
parents were fascinated when Jessica used Skype to gave them a live
electronic tour of her Pittsburgh, PA dorm room by walking her laptop
computer around. On our end, we held up Tino the cat to wave to her.
He looked confused and purred, as always.
Besides Chorus, I think Jessica’s favorite is her First Amendment
Law class. She held her first dorm hall tea party despite CMU’s water shortage. (A water main broke.) It is wonderful to hear about my daughter’s
adventures in her new big world and, of course, we are all immensely
proud of her. But I would still rather listen to her tell us all about it
in person.
