My program was bigger and longer than I thought it would be. Now that I'm done with my final recital of my college career, it does feel very weird. But I am still relieved that I am finished. 

I would like to thank all of my friends, family and colleagues that came to support me at this important moment in my life. It is hard to put in words how much I appreciated it. Thank you to Jontynise Smith for doing a gorgeous job with my hair. And thank you to those of you who could not make it but wished me luck! 

And one more picture.. this is too cute that I have to put it up here :)

My youngest audience member! She is so adorable.

Love,
