Hello my lovelies. In case you forgot: I'm in Brevard, North Carolina at the Brevard Music Center. It's up in the mountains with LOTS of bugs. It's incredibly humid and rains all the time. But it's very pretty, too. The best part about being at the Brevard Music Center is where I live. The entire camp is located on Andante Lane. We swim in Sonata Lake. The Library is on Orchestra Trail, and I live on Symphony Hill. My little sister lives on Rondo Road, and my good friend Natalie lives in Quartet Lane. No, I'm not joking. It's pretty intense if you ask me.

There's not a whole lot to do here. Which can sometimes be a good thing and sometimes be a bad thing. Bad thing: There's NOTHING to do. Good thing: I practice a WHOLE lot.

I've been here for 25 days - 19 to go. A little less than three weeks left. I've been having fun here, but I'm incredibly excited to go home. I live in a cabin with 17 other people and there's ants everywhere. Now, the things about these ants is that they are HUGE. and I mean huge. Like 5 times the size of the ants in Utah. MASSIVE. I found about a hundred of them crawling all over my clothes the other day. Super nastiest thing of my life.

I'm excited to see my family and all my friends. Yes - that would be you. I'm SO excited to see you! It feels like it's been forever. I've met some super incredible, awesome people. And I'm going to miss them so very much - but that means I to see you. So, I'm ok with it.

While everybody else is getting out of bed
I'm usually getting in it
I'm not in it to win it
And there's a thousand ways you can skin it

My feet have been on the floor
Flat like an idle singer
Remember winger
I digress
I confess you are the best thing in my life

But I'm afraid when I hear stories
About a husband and wife
There's no happy endings
No Henry Lee
But you are the greatest thing about me

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever
No one else could do it better
If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
And if I'm addicted to loving you
And you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather
That flock together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, Love
That's enough for me

Took a loan on a house I own
Can't be a queen bee without a bee throne
I wanna buy ya everything
Except cologne
'cause it's poison
We can travel to Spain where the rain falls
Mainly on the plain sounds insane
'cause it is we can laugh we can sing
Have ten kids and give them everything
Hold our cell phones up in the air
And just be glad we made it here alive
On a spinning ball in the middle of space
I love you from your toes to your face

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever
No one else could do it better
If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
And if I'm addicted to loving you
And you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather
That flock together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, Love
That's enough for me

You can move in
I won't ask where you've been
'cause everybody has a past
When we're older
We'll do it all over again

When everybody else is getting out of bed
I'm usually getting in it
I'm not in it to win it
I'm in it for you

If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
Then the rest is just whenever

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever
No one else could do it better
And if I'm addicted to loving you
And you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather
That flock together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, love
That's enough for me
