Brahms 1 and Candide


Araceli hates Utah Youth.  She attacks it like she does most things: apathetically and with complaints. The word attack is probably too strong.  Despite her menial efforts, the orchestra surprised me with how good they sounded.  I was the only one who went because there was church and a blizzard, but it was fun to sit in the beautiful hall and imagine what it would be like if Araceli actually liked orchestra.  Not loved it passionately like I did when I was in it, but just liked it, or at least knew what pieces they were playing in their performance.  We'd have so much fun together.  Oh well.  Someday she will find her passion, unless she's already found it and it's snapchatting.
