Wednesday marked my last trip to Kingwood for my preceptorship with pediatrician Dr. Penn. He's been a wonderful mentor and role model. Never failing to keep me interested, Dr. Penn's patients were gracious in letting me practice my skills and open in sharing their stories. One patient with adrenoleukodystrophy (the condition for which people take Lorenzo's oil) was particularly memorable and perfectly timed to coincide with what we're learning in neurology.On Saturday evening I put on my new dress and headed to my penultimate ballet of the season. Of an Era combined three neoclassical works. First up was romantic and beautiful 'Nosotros' by Houston Ballet's own artistic director Stanton Welch. It seemed almost as if the music was arranged to match the dancing. Next up was a memorable, unique, and startlingly contemporary piece 'Jardà Tancat' (above). The Catalonian folk songs provided interesting media for artistic interpretation through movement; unfortunately, the music was recorded. The live orchestra was back for the final performance of 'Carousel' (score from the musical), which was light and fun.

Party's Over
I think I am in denial that today is the last day of May. While I am thrilled that this means July with all its vacation splendor is a mere month away, June haunts me with endless studying and tests. There will be a few breaks to look forward to like a trip to Lake Conroe on the 5th, a wedding on the 13th, and Swan Lake (the ballet's season finale) on the 19th. But other than that, I need to focus focus focus. Home stretch!
