| The dePasquale Household 2012 Christmas Tree |
I’d like to start by wishing you the warmest of holidays,
filled with joy, peace, and love. This holiday season was especially difficult
for me, specifically on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. Christmas was my
father’s favorite time of year and it seemed to hit me especially hard. I feel
like I’m slowly starting to emerge out of my holidays funk and I am very
excited for the New Year.
I’d like to also apologize for my extended absence from the
blog. My first semester at Juilliard was hectic, to say the least. I definitely
underestimated the amount of change occurring in my life…new city, new school,
new teachers, new (and first!) apartment, new long-distance relationship…however,
in the midst of all of this craziness, some really great things have happened. My
lessons with Mr. Perlman and Ms. Cho have been amazing, I worked with a
fantastic string quartet comprised of PMPers, I won a spot in the Concertmaster
pool for the Juilliard Orchestra, and I’ve met a lot of really great people in
New York.
I’m still in the midst of mentally processing all that has
happened in the last year and figuring out all that I want for myself in the
New Year. Until then, I leave you with post-holiday season warmest wishes!
