In September, I had the opportunity to meet my scholarship sponsors, Alan and Stephanie Rudy. I told you all about them here. They are seriously wonderful people. Since meeting them, they have spoiled me.
In October, they picked me up for a dinner at Laudisio, a really great Italian restaurant here in Boulder. On Wednesday night, they treated me to dinner at California Pizza Kitchen and a Metropolitan Opera Broadcast of Turandot (which was amazing).
In addition, they came to the University Choir Concert that I performed in, and plan on coming to our Opera Scenes program. (Shameless plug: If you aren't doing anything on the evening of Tuesday, December 1st, come up to Boulder for an opera scenes program featuring both graduate and undergraduate singers. It's in the basement of the music building and is free).
They have invited me to their house for Thanksgiving and want to take me to more operas. They rock. In addition to helping me, they are both very, very active in the Boulder community and donate hours and hours and hours to community service projects. I hope they keep me! They are fantastic!
In other scholarship news, I was given an additional $6500 in scholarship for next semester. It will allow me to stay in CO. When I know more about it, I'll let you know!
