Yes... the de Erausquin family will leave our beautiful St. Louis next summer, bound for Boston! The reason for this is that Tata (our Dad) just accepted an offer from the great, the only....
Hahvahd University!
So this will be our last year here in our home of thirteen- almost fourteen- years. Ah, the sadness... Boston has no SSPX church or school, so we will be down to a mission chapel and homeschooling. But hey, it's still Mass. And with the amount of singers in our family alone, and all our boys, we could be having High Masses with a full choir in not too long... that would really be awesome!
Leaving all our old friends and our colleges will be tough, though. Having two years of college left, I now have to decide whether to transfer to, say, Boston College, and get used to a whole new group of teachers and students; or remain here at Webster University with the teachers who know me and my ways -- where I come from and where I am musically, as Mrs. Eastman says.
Ah, well. Time will tell, and God will make sure things come out right, I know.

I nearly fell out of my chair- THAT'S EXCELLENT! Is your dad really going to be a professor? By the way, I think that there are other traditional masses in the Boston area.
I would like to formally welcome you to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Now the chance is exponentially higher than we'll actually get to meet some time. And by the way, regarding your schooling, there's always... Assumption College!
Oh, I meant "that we'll actually get to meet."
Of course there's always another traditional Mass, but Dad prefers to stay with the SSPX, as do I.
Assumption College, huh? Do they have a good music program? The ideal thing would be one within driving distance of where we live, so as not to worry about room and board, you know...
Thanks for your warm welcome and yes, I do hope to meet you sometime! I was thinking the same thing myself!
Will keep the intention in my prayers.
God Bless

thank you Credo
Ask my roommate: he's a music major. I've only heard good about the program itself, though I must admit the chapel choir jazz jams leave much to be desired.
chapel choir jazz jams? FUN!!!!
Very well, if you wish! But seriously, I hear the music program is good.
okay, Crusader... I'll see... it depends on whether I can get there every day from wherever-we-end-up-living! Dorms... I dunno if Dad would let me...
P.S. About the jazz jams -- I do like jazz, and I love jam sessions, but not at Mass if that's what you were worried about :)
