Friday!

I seriously do think I'm here just to schlepp water. And groceries. :)

Today choir and theater got to leave classes early to go practice in the theater all together. That did not go well at all. The theater wants to do some sort of interpretive version of the story of David (from the Bible) but with hashtags and the choir singing "hallelujah" because David got 50 million likes on his Facebook page. Um. 

However, they "weren't quite done" aka they only had four pages of script and none of it memorized. So I don't know how that's supposed to work... We'll see. But anyways, we got to leave early from practice because we had run through everything:)

Tonight I got to Skype with my mom:) We talked about colleges. For three hours. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Choir day

Technically we didn't have school today because there were Aufnahme Prüfungen (testing to be accepted into the school next year) going on. But some teachers decided it would be a perfect day to have the choir and theater practice together for the performance at the end of the year. I personally think that what the choir is singing is really nice... It's called Le Roi David, and it's all majestic with hallelujahs and the like. Most people don't like it because it's not Pop. But what the theater is doing is what I don't understand. Apparently they're trying to do some sort of modernized version of the story of David (from the Bible). This includes us singing hallelujah because David has reached 50 million Likes on Facebook, and projecting hashtags onto the stage for a background. According to my friend, the theater practiced all semester, then about a week ago decided to scrap the whole thing and start over again. I don't know what the teachers are expecting (a miracle?) but as far as I can tell it's not going to be so amazing. Oh well. 

Also, I met a very photogenic cat on the way home. :)

Friday! Week something

Today I got to leave Spanish class an hour early so we had enough time to rehearse in choir for three hours with the theater people that we'll be performing with:) It was fun, and my voice basically died. Basically it was a beautiful day, and I got to eat chocolate. Woohoo for weekends and sleeping!
