One down one to go.

Well Moose and I performed our debut performance last night at a baptist church in Salzburg. The school planned this performance as a sort of dress rehearsal to our final concert. We were playing to raise money for Austrians to go to America and raise money for homeless people there... go figure. Americans helping Austrians help Americans. Moose and I were pretty nervous but when we walked out and saw the crowd we were very confident. The duet we played went pretty well but then we performed our solo and couldn't be more happy about it. I asked my friend Kathy to record it so I can show all of you when I get back! I will record Thursdays concert as well.

I can't believe it's almost time to go home. I am going to miss my host family and Chrissy so much I can't stand to think about it. It was hard leaving Utah but I knew I was going to see everyone again, I don't know if I'll ever see these people again and they've meant so much to me it's going to be so hard! Chrissy and I can't think about it. We keep just ignoring it and hope the problem will go away. My host parents aren't helping either, in the last few weeks we've been getting more and more close as we're finally starting to merge in language and in personality I love it here! I am definitely ready to see all of you and live on my own again :) but I don't want to think about not ever seeing these great people again! They have been kind enough to offer Chrissy and I back whenever we can make it. I think we'll both eventually take them up on that offer!

My tests are over and school is wrapping up. Friday is the last day the building will be open for the students and after that we have to give back our key and kiss salzburg college goodbye! Where has the time gone? Munich, Vienna, Prague, Salzburg, concerts and lessons, tests, papers and classes, The stiegel , cafe republic, the Augustiener, shopping streets, countless cones of Eis... Oh yeah... that's where it went!

So sad but so worth it

Love you all
