Ate 3 times today, which happens rarely with me. I believe I will be keeping that kind of diet for my whole stay here. Ate breakfast at 9am, lunch at 12pm, and early dinner at 5pm. We had a vocal department orientation, as well as a general music orientation. Faculty people were introduced during the Orientation. I’ve made friends already, but I can still notice a “clique” among certain people. Maybe later this summer, I’ll be able to make more new friends, hopefully not just in the vocal department.

p.s. I am actually staying at Cate School in Carpinteria, which is 10-15 minutes away from Music Academy in Santa Barbara. I’ll be doing most of my lessons and coachings at Cate School, but masterclasses will be at Music Academy.
