It's a wrap!! I have had so much fun on this tour and met many people along the way. This was exactly what I wanted right out of college. Won't he do it!!? I have got the chance to go to places I never thought I would be going to this year. I can't wait for the next one! Ps: I could not take myself seriously with that wig. I couldn't even look at my shadow without laughing. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #wonthedoit #tourlife #tour #musicaltheatre #albuquerque #newmexico #pinocchio #sleepingbeauty #comedy #ambre #texasboys #meiammichael #portrait #ontheroad #theatre #singer #actor #princelife (at Albuquerque, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BroEu9IHAMM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=yz39d6wgo7t7

A throwback to the first day that I had to move into a dorm at #hsu. I had so many boxes from moving for the second time from two apartments in Abilene. I moved now four times since then. Six TIMES TOTAL. Haha Now I CAN'T WAIT to move to New York! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #tbt #throwbackthursday #college #life #photooftheday #throughtherain #makeithappen #onelifeliveit #meiammichael #makeitoutalive #godisgood https://www.instagram.com/p/BnIQwV3H1wO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ademdmty44au

Beatles Fest was fun!

That moment when you didn't fall asleep but you just [woke] up! That can be taken in many ways. I'm also so tired. #staywoke #light #almosthome #positivevibes #iwokeuplikethis #meiammichael #memyselfandi #butterfly #loveyourself #themlipstho #intheweesmallhours #thisisamerica (at Dance Discovery Studios Abilene, TX)

The most important relationship we all have in our lives. That relationship is the one you have with yourself. It's about loving, loving yourself and knowing you are responsible for your own happiness. No matter where you go, no matter how lonely you are, no matter how hurt you are, who breaks your heart, you're never truly alone because you'll always have God inside of you. I took a vow that from now on I'm going to be my own best friend.- @beyonce . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #earthday #beyonce #beychella #love #loveyourself #quotes #godisgood #inspirationalquotes #sundayfunday #botanicalgardens #butterfly #butgod #growth #memyselfandi #bestfriendgoals #positivevibes (at Oklahoma City Zoo and Botanical Garden)

Week 2 Kayla Assignment: Find your favourite part of Abilene, take a picture and explain why it is special! . . I chose this court yard at Heavenly Rest. The church where I sing has grown on me a lot. Mostly because of it's people. I have always loved the architecture and finished product of the new add-ons. Over all I find peace when no one is around and I can just hang out next to the fountain and lay on the grass and relax. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #Abilene #APO #pledging #heavenlyrest #Episcopal #church #Hsutx #moments #ISing #meiammichael #music #mood #relax #godisgood #butterfly (at The Episcopal Church of the Heavenly Rest)

I wandered lonely as a cloud  That floats on high o'er vales and hills,  When all at once I saw a crowd,  A host, of golden daffodils;  Beside the lake, beneath the trees,  Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.  Continuous as the stars that shine  And twinkle on the milky way,  They stretched in never-ending line  Along the margin of a bay:  Ten thousand saw I at a glance,  Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.  The waves beside them danced; but they  Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:  A poet could not but be gay,  In such a jocund company:  I gazed—and gazed—but little thought  What wealth the show to me had brought:  For oft, when on my couch I lie  In vacant or in pensive mood,  They flash upon that inward eye  Which is the bliss of solitude;  And then my heart with pleasure fills,  And dances with the daffodils.  -William Wandsworth . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #poetry #daffodils #iwanderlonelyasacloud #wander #botanicalgardens #dance #butterfly #music #acda #choirtour #wildlife #tomford #pageparks #coach #tommyhilfiger #expressmen #vunerability #mariahcarey (at Myriad Botanical Gardens)
