Time square, shopping, and greasy food.

Hello again.
8:30 pm tomorrow I will be leaving for New York city. Exciting? I'm peeing my pants as we speak. I've been there before but I was also 12 and didn't fully appreciate what the city has to offer. Now that I'm older and wiser (or so I'd like to think) I am ready to take on Manhattan!..well. Sort of.
Our choir is going to New York to sing at Carnegie Hall. Yes, I said Carnegie Hall. The real deal, people. Anyway, we leave tomorrow night, fly out from Kansas city at 5:30 am on Thursday, then go to a musical once we get to the big city. And then on that Sunday, I (and 100+ others) get to step onto
THE CARNEGIE HALL STAGE
and get to sing.
I have ALWAYS wanted to sing in a big hall or church or something of great value. I want to feel like I have accomplished something huge, and I get to do that by singing in Carnegie.
I know it may sound a little cliche, but this is a once in a lifetime thing for most people. But for me, I want to make it happen again. When I walk onto that stage, I will be thinking about all of the famous musicians who have played/sung on the stage. And someday, I want to be one of the famous people that somebody thinks about as they walk onto the stage for the first time.
Maybe it's a petty dream. Sounds a little cloud-headed doesn't it?
Who knows. But someday, I want to see my name in lights. Not for the glitz and glamor though. I'm not in this for the fame. I want to touch people with my music and with my story. I want to share a bit of me with people. Who cares if I never get my name in lights or whatever. What REALLY matters, is if I can touch a life.
I know it sounds cheesy but it is truly how I feel.

I'm getting ahead of myself, as usual! Anywho, I'll be sure to post some pictures of my trip once I get them. And I will definitely have to write about my trip once I get home on the 16th!
Flying isn't my favorite thing so send some prayers my way at around 5:30 Thursday morning!
Time to kick the journey into gear,
KJ
