I'm so sorry I haven't been here, guys! But I've been SO INSANELY BUSY!
Update:
I got the lead in the school musical. I'm supposed to be off-book by tomorrow... meaning, having all my lines and blocking memorized. Something tells me that's not going to happen. The musical is "The King and I" and I'm Anna and I get 5 solos. I'm super excited.
I'm involved in 3 school choirs; Vocal Ensemble, Concert Choir, and Advanced Womens Choir. By the end of March, I've gotta learn all my music. Heh, heh, heh...
Vocal Ensemble went to the Jazz/Madrigal Festival at NAU this last weekend. It was pretty much the most fun I've ever had, despite the fact that our choir didn't perform very well at all... but it was AMAZINGLY fun. That group of kids rock my socks off.
I made it into Regional Choir!!! Out of about 10 schools, I auditioned and was picked #13 out of only 30 altos that they accepted. I got a 57 out of 60 on my solo, and a 24 out of 40 on my sight reading. I sang my solo for a State judge as well and got a 33/35, a rating of "Superior."
This week is Regionals week. I go to two rehearsals across town from 4:30 to 7:30, once on Tuesday and once on Thursday. Then, all day Friday and Saturday we rehearse and perform Saturday night.
Tomorrow I get to be at school from 7 in the morning until 8 at night, because immediately after school I have Vocal Ensemble rehearsal, and then a little after that is The King and I rehearsals.
Good thing I love the stuff that I do, because it has kind of usurped my entire life.
Homework? If I have time. But not exactly a priority. It's magic that I am passing every class with an A, except for English, where I have a really high B. I looooooove easy classes.
And Valentines Day... nope, no Valentine for me. Doesn't matter though, I don't like V-day anyways. And no, those aren't sour grapes... I just have never liked it. I'm getting chocolate from my friend, Marissa though, so that's good.
Anyways, I miss you guys, and if I had the time, I'd definitely pop in every single day, but it just isn't possible. Love ya!
