Leavin' on a Jetblue-Plane...

This evening at seven twenty-six of the clock, post meridian, I will be flying to Utah to enjoy my last true pre-college experience--my third and final year of the Young Ambassadors Singing Entertainer Workshop (YASE camp). There is precious little free time during this camp, so it is unlikely that I'll be able to post for the next few days. I may be able to post tomorrow, if Ben can spare the use of his laptop for a while. Anyway, once I return from camp, you can expect a full and (hopefully) exciting report of the week.

Packing is calling me, so I will leave you with a handful of videos. You can spread them out over the days that I'll be absent from the blog and maybe you won't miss me as much. Enjoy

Love,
Christian

These two videos (here's the first and here's the second) were the songs for the opening number of the YASE show in 2007 (that's obviously not us li'l campers in the videos). A little trivia: the boy singing lead in the videos was in Hannah Frandsen's graduating class at SFHS and the girl singing lead is the niece of the star of every EFY album, the mormon pop-star Jenny Jordan Frogley.





These two songs made up the finale for 2008. The choir doesn't sound amazing in the first, but I think Taylor (my prom date) does a great job of the solo. The second video is the Young Ambassadors cast of 2008-2009.



This is Becca Schwartz, a good friend of mine, from the YA cast 2007-2008. In my humble opinion, this is one of the best renditions of defying gravity on YouTube. She's a star.

I don't know if y'all can access this video, but this is my best friend Julia singing "Diva's Lament" from Spamalot at the YASE showcase last summer.

And here's ME singing "Who Can I Turn To" from The Roar of the Greasepaint - The Smell of the Crowd at the same showcase. Another bit of trivia: the Michael Buble/Muse/Adam Lambert hit "Feelin' Good" comes from the same show.



This is Taylor again performing "So Much Better" from Legally Blonde: The Musical, again at the same showcase.

Well I really do need to pack right now, so I will post more videos for your enjoyment tomorrow.
