Meeting my music hero šŸŽ¶šŸ–¤šŸŽ¶

Updated: Jul 25, 2019


Today was yet another fantastic day! šŸ˜ Had our first course with Christopher Young and well... I don’t even know where to begin šŸ™ˆšŸ‘€šŸ˜…


As a die-hard fan of Chris, his presence alone put a huge smile on my face but the moment he actually walked up to me and shook my hand after I’ve burst with excitement at the mention of the movie ā€œSweet Novemberā€ ( which for those who don’t know, is one of my absolute fav movies), was certainly the highlight of my day.


Turns out he also loved writing the piece I love listening to, on repeat šŸ˜šŸ–¤ Just sitting down and listening to him talk about all the right things, couldn’t help but realize what a waste of time and energy my years in university were. I wish I would’ve had him as a professor. He’s SO inspiring, motivating, passionate and full of resources. LOVED EVERY SECOND OF THE LECTURE!!! šŸ˜±šŸ–¤šŸŽ¶


Also... I’m now, the proud owner of these 2 Scoresheets šŸ˜ Hellraiser is the movie through which I discovered Christopher Young so... I’d say that this is a dream come true but actually... this goes beyond my wildest dreams šŸ˜…šŸ™ˆšŸ–¤ I’ve always wondered what his music looks like on paper and well...now... after many years of wondering, my eyes are delighted šŸ˜šŸŽ¶


The scores were presented to each of us on DAY 1, by the GEMS founder Nigel Ashley Lees along with T-shirts, Summer Program Magazines, and yes there is an artical about me in it, scores from Garry Schyman and lots more. Fantastic!


I couldn’t be more excited to be here and I’m truly grateful to GEMS for offering me this scholarship. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! šŸ™šŸ˜
