3 Quick Q's Q: What's Your Favorite Restaurant in Appleton? A; My Favorite Restaurant in Appleton is SAP (I just ate there this morning!) Q: If you could be an animal, what animal would you be? A: If I could be an animal...I would be a cat. Q: Packers or Badgers? A: I love the Packers!! I like the Badgers, too, but I went to the University of Michigan for my doctorate, so we are kind of rivals. :) Being from Wisconsin, though, I can easily say I root for them both and am happy if they both do well.

This post makes me reminisce the time when I was having my clarinet recital at Utah Middle School. During that time, my clarinet teacher would always teach us the basics of playing the clarinet. At first, I was having a difficult time. But as time goes by, I got the hang of it. During those crucial moments, we went to different countries such as Canada and Mexico. We played in the center-stage and won prestigious awards. It was the peak of our clarinet career.
