<p>So, I am starting this new thread for all incoming freshman to Shenandoah Conservatory. My name is Mikey, I live in northeast Ohio, and I will be attending Shenandoah for their musical theatre program. Shenandoah is 7 hours away from my home, and I am sure it is far for others too. This idea of this thread occured to me as I was talking to another incoming freshman for Shenandoah. Angela (the girl I was talking to) and I were talking about Shenandoah and agreed it would be nice to get to know other incoming freshman to the conservatory so we would have friendships already started when we first arrive on campus in late August! So, if you are an incoming freshman, feel free to leave a message on here so we can get to know each other! :)</p>
<p>Did you by chance attend the summer music program at Shenandoah? What will you be studying?</p>
<p>I did not attend their summer music program.. sorry. I will be majoring in Musical Theatre with a concentration in voice.</p>
<p>My d will be attending for MT!! She is Inaspotlight...and when she slows down for five minutes she will be thrilled to post! Good luck to all. Have you sent in your pick for oreintation day yet? Has your friend joined the thread yet?</p>
<p>My orientation date will be July 10th I believe. I have conflicts with all the other ones due to my summer theatre shows, but the July 10th one will be perfect! I am also going to see 42nd Street down there also at that time. During most of the orientations, there should be a show down there playing. I know they are doing CATS, but I am not sure what else off the top of my head. My friend Angela has not joined yet, I have not been able to talk to her! But she will!! We met on myspace, and hopefully more people will get to talk with us before we get down at the school in August! Friends are excellent to have, especially starting off in a new place! I am looking forward to talk to your daughter!!</p>
<p>Also, if anyone wants to talk to me on AIM my name is broadwayboy1939 I usually have a message up, so just leave one, and I will reply asap!</p>
<p>Hey Mikey!!! I am also an incoming musical theatre major at Shen Shen! (as it is affectionately referred to by those attending) I have two good friends who will be sophomores next year at Shenandoah and they love it! My name is Alex (short for Alexandra), I am notforme's daughter. I think I'll be at the July 10th orientation as well, so we'll have to meet! Can't wait!</p>
<p>Wow!!!! What a great idea for a thread!! Major props Mikey.... Hey Alex!!! Are you also majoring (in MT) with a concentration in voice??... I am really excited about attending Shenandoah!!!! (Can't you tell by all the explanation marks!!!..hehe) I bought a sweatshirt!!.... and I have a pen ... that I "borrowed" from an open house.....

You both sound like such neat people... but musical theatre people always are neat people... But you two sound especially neat! Hehe! I love people who talk in exclamation points!!!!! :-)</p>
<p>Hey guys! and girls!</p>
<p>I just wanted to say hey! Awesome job on starting a thread here! My name is Chris Douglas and I'll be at Shenandoah for MT this next fall! I live in Fairfax, Virginia. I already had my orientation on the 23. It was kinda boring until you hook up with the conservatory MT people and look at your schedual for the fall semister. I guess there were about 6 of the MT people there! It was a crazy feeling of "wow, these kids are gonna be my family for the next 4 years of my life!" (All of them were pretty awesome!). Anywho, my SN is WhySoSilent06 , so if you guys are online drop in! (oh there isnt a Starbucks in Whinchester!!... I was bummed, but they do have Sheetz! haha) </p>
<p>I cant wait to meet everyone! Have a great rest of your summer! I am on facebook and myspace too. </p>
<p>Later guys!
Chris</p>
<p>P.S. If you get a chance, go and see the summer theatre they do! I saw Cats and it was a terrific performance! The rest of the line up is 42nd Street, Footloose, and Wizard of Oz!</p>
<p>Hello again!!!</p>
<p>Ugh, I've been so busy I haven't been able to post... Summer jobs are major fun suckers! Anyway, never realized that I didn't drop my sn on here... it's CnStarz11... Please message me if you see that I'm on!!! I'm dying to meet all of you! Can't wait to see some of you at orientation on July 10!!!</p>
<p>Well, I saw 42nd Street today. It was wonderful. The choreography was really done well. Tomorrow is my orientation and I am really excited!! I cant wait to start in the fall. By the way, I went to cold stone today!! (yup, it was exciting) I have some questions for you guys ..1. Are you all bringing a car? 2. Did you get your emails yet? 3. (Oh dear . A list always needs a third item).do you like .cake? :)</p>
<p>Yeah so .. I will probably figure all this out tomorrow anyway Haha Well goodnight</p>
<p><3 Nikki</p>
<p>Nikki, I didn't know you were going to Shenandoah! Good for you! I bet it was weird not being back at performance weekend in Loch Sheldrake BUT you have moved onto the next "stage" and I just want to wish you all the best as you embark on this next adventure!</p>
<p>~~Susan</p>
<p>Yeah ... It was really strange not being at SDM !!! Hopefully I can make it up to see the 2nd sessions shows..... Shenandoah is really fantastic! I am really looking forward to moving in :) ....I hope all is well with your D!!! One of my close friends is going into the cap21 program !! Hopefully they will be friends.. he is an amazing guy! Hope all is well...</p>
<p><3 Nikki</p>
<p>P.S. ~ Any Shen Shen kids having trouble with their email.....Mine seems to have an attitude ....hehe</p>
<p>Ok you shen shens! I gave in and started a MySpace account... <a href="http://www.myspace.com/inaspotlight%5B/url%5D">www.myspace.com/inaspotlight</a>... Now be my friends because I look like a loner right now!!! Haha... Funny story... Nikki and I are room mates!!! Good times! Can't wait!</p>
<p>Yeah. I am having the same trouble with the su email. I thought they said something along the lines of their server being down throughout July, but I def. tried to log in before the date when the su server was supposed to go down. Maybe they dont have us in the system yet... Who knows! Anywho, I am talking to most of you on AIM now, but if there is anyone new on here: WhySoSilent06 </p>
<p>hit it up!</p>
<p>See you guys in only a couple of weeks! Enjoy the last bit of summer everyone!</p>
<p>Chris</p>
<p>So .... I forgot to give an update on my college email problem.....hehe..... So my email is working now....and I think I am the only Shen Shen 2010 student listed on facebook.... Which is kind of a bummer .Please join Facebook J </p>
<p>Your log in name should be your first initial and first 7 letters of your last name.... your password is your ID# ....it should have a couple of zeros in front of the number listed on your hornet card.....(SU could have just listed the zeros on the card...that would have been easier...jeez) ...good luck ..</p>
<p>P.S. ~ Your ID# should also be listed on the paperwork SU sent out </p>
<p><3 Nikki</p>
