New Year, New Post

Hello blog friends,
It's been a while, hasn't it?

I'm learning many new things. And I'm not just talking about school, I mean about life and living it. No, I really mean LIVING it. I'm 20, a young college student chasing a dream that could hold a career someday. And I love my life.

But it isn't always easy. In fact, I know I have it easier than some people, but it still has its struggles every day. Last semester, I dealt with a myriad of health issues that made it extremely difficult for me to get out of my bed each morning. I couldn't drive. I couldn't sing.

I'm a vocal performance major. And I couldn't. Sing.

That was my identity; I was brokenhearted. I wasn't me anymore.

Or so I thought.

A few months have passed, and I am still figuring out my medical mysteries. I still cannot sing an aria or for more than a minute or so.

But I'm happy.

I am so grateful for life. That's all I need. I know I'll get better. I have faith and hope in my future healing.

So I'm getting back to the writing world. I've missed it. Don't need a voice to type something on a laptop ;)

Also, where else am I going to share my thoughts on knitting, books, music, and share my cute cat photos? (Oh wait, my facebook is already flooded with those....whoops!)

I pray that each of you find the healing you need and that 2014 is a year of growth for all of us!

xoxo,
Alexandra Anne

What I'm Loving Wednesday~Opera Style


Linking up today! Here's what I am loving at this moment; any references to Cheryomushki, that's my opera I'm in! (See the post before this one to get my synopsis and why you should totally come see it!)

What Alexandra Anne loves: 

Skinny Vanilla Hazelnut Coffee, which my friend paid for :) :) :)

Dressing like a construction worker for Cheryomushki

Music!! It's been what gets me through the  days <3 

The men in our opera. These guys are so silly, and they were all sweet to compliment my 50s hair the other night! 

Curls! I'm having fun with this hairstyle 

Green tea; super calming after driving in Houston traffic every day. (Please note the loads of books..oh college...)

Cute 50s dress, no?



Come see Cheryomushki!
