Sometimes you come across albums and automatically know what songs are gonna be on replay. The catchy dance beats. Or those hauntingly beautiful ballads. Or the rough and raw stuff. And sometimes, on the best of occasions, you just cannot pick a favorite. Because they all speak to you in one way or another and they're all so good and this artist is so beyond brilliant that you have to appreciate this whole album for the masterpiece it is.

That's the Pentatonix album.

Most Wonderful

MY BABIES MAKE ME SO PROUD. All the proud mama syndrome. So my mentees have been working super hard on their presentations. I caught them rehearsing a couple of times. And their performances were today. They were. SO GOOD. They worked well as a group. The transitions were beautiful. Concepts were clear. They were effectively listening to one another. They used drama therapy techniques at appropriate times and it actually helped further the plot. They all did so much work and I'm just incredibly proud of their focus, dedication, and willingness to delve into new things.

ALSO. After my beautiful necklace from you and my sweet card from Jess, Craig anonymously gifted me the new Christmas album from Pentatonix "That's Christmas to Me" (but I'm smart and I figured it out). It's wonderful. And I just cannot get over how kind people have been to me as of late. Lord knows I've needed it. And it has not gone unnoticed. I'm so blessed. So so blessed.

Reason 308: First off, can we take a moment to appreciate that Madeon is my age? Like, he just turned 19 two days ago (Cristina's birthday!). 1994. My. Age. Like, I've always been super in love with him and had serious respect for him and his art. But now I can like... marry him.

ANYSWOOZIES! I also found this today. Oh my dang. I can't. How do you "just make" this? It's so good.

Reason 186: There is such a wonderful feeling in learning a new song. Oh my goodness, I needed this. To look at a book of songs and sing them with a group as we all improve together. Yes yes yes, just what the doctor ordered. HOORAY JAZZ VOICE CLASS!
