This past friday, Orange Night Live (ONL), a community that holds free live performing concerts for students, had a free Sara Bareilles concert at our Student Schine center. I fell in LOVE with Sara Bareilles's album last summer but her live performance made her cd sound like chicken scratch. Her voice dominated the whole auditorium. Not only was her voice beautiful but she had a strong personality. She said that we were the second university that she's visited. She was hilarious and improvised jokes as the crowd shouted great comments about her voice. She was very passionate and looked like she was just having fun as she sang.
This sort of made me think about the illustration department in our university. I'm really blessed and thankful to have a great department to work in. The reason why the illustration department is so great is because the professors are very happy when they do their work and the students really learn from that. When you walk into the junior and senior studios, everyone is very enthusiastic while they do their work. It's a really fun atmosphere to be in.
Anyway, although I didn't get a lot of work done this weekend, I had a lot of fun thus I have no regrets.
