Wien, vielen Dank für Alles

Liebe Wien,

I wrote this and never posted it.. so I thought I should post it..

Vielen Dank...

for the incredible experiences I've had here -- I could never forget these memories.

for the huge shove in a new direction -- I can't believe how much I've grown here.

for the ???? amount of added pounds... schnitzel, mozart kugeln, croissants, kebap... the list doesn't end.  How about a gym pass to go with it? =P

for the caffiene addiction... your Kaffee is the best in the world.

for the friends I've made whom I know I can always revisit these memories with.

for the long nights of Deutsch studieren... but really not.. and then the frantic mornings of Deutsch studieren ;)

for the constant musical inspiration literally everywhere I go -- I love being in a city where being in the orchestra/opera is considered really really awesome.

for the opportunity to study with a Vienna Philharmonic horn player (the best one ;) !!) -- I've grown so much on horn and learned a whole new approach to playing, learning.  Danke Wolfgang!

I've come to love another orchestra like it's my home orch, even though they have a completely different approach than I'm used to!

Wien, you will be truly missed.
