when I was about 5 years old I saw on tv a performance of Mozart’s The Magic Flute, and I became obsessed with the “Queen of Night Aria” (now I know the names but at the time I thought that was just called “opera” as if it was the only one that existed lmao) and from that moment I decided that my vocation was to scream on a stage (a few years later I became a glee fan… the pipeline…)

I had delusions of grandeur and auditioned to get into the local music conservatory. my voice teacher was a very kind woman and she did her best to help me develop my upper register. today, I give very exclusive shower concerts!

Go to the opera at least once. Get dressed up with a friend, be chic, enjoy the people watching during intermission, laugh haughtily and bask in the good lighting. I was obsessed with the simplicity of the little black and orange subtitle screens in front of each seat. The crowd is older and sophisticated and judgemental. They were wearing the best clothes. The stage sets are grand and the singing will melt your brain. I don’t know about other cities but The Met has turned me into an opera person now.

when you walk around try to pay attention to your surroundings and take notes of what you see on a specific notebook. For example yesterday I saw: a spider eating a bug, a tiny black and white bird on the sidewalk, a hawk flying, a yellow flower I’ve never seen before, a red poppy, a woman with bright cherry hair, and a shoe-shaped cloud. It’s good exercise for the writers out there

one of my favourite ways to spend time is going to poetry foundation’s website and just clicking on anything - besides poetry, they have lots of resources and essays about poets or particular movements. I discovered so many great things doing this
