A Coffee Rush Sort of Day

So I went to Coffee Rush this morning to visit Lenny before school started. He was there so I finally got to visit him...if you're confused see a couple posts ago. Anyway, school was ok. We solved the problem of the no encore thing. I am taking Independant Study, which includes seeing a live concert, coming to rehearsal whenever possible, and helping at choir concerts...the ones I can attend. Although I don't need to do much work, I'm still not singing in the choir all teh time, but at least I'm enrolled.

Exciting news...I am on the homecoming court. I'm pretty excited. However, I think I was placed there by default. Why? Well, the girls names stopped at P and the boys stopped at Q...I mean the top 26 of both were called and the 26th name started with that letter. Why is that weird? Because there are a lot of people who's last names start with S and T and all those letters who should have been on court and some who start with B and C and the rest who shouldn't be on court. We discussed this in 1st period and came up with that either a lot of people voted for the 1st 25 people because they didn't care or they didn't know anyone and so voted for the 1st 25 people. But don't worry, I do know I got at least 15 votes because people told me they voted for me all day today. Other than that weird occurance of events, I'm pretty excited to be on homecoming court.

Voice lessons were ok. My voice is very out of shape however. But it'll soon kick back into action...I hope. Instead of singing 4 songs, I am now back down to 2...which I feel better about because the homework situation killed my time to practice at all this past week. I'm singing one of the songs she gave me last week and a new Itlaian one that is pretty cool. It has all these runs and nifty things like that. The accompaniment doesn't help the singer much either so it'll be harder to learn.

After voice, Kirsten and I stopped at Coffee Rush on a whim to visit Charlotte. And I mean a whim because we were at the stop light by Coffee Rush and I said, "We should visit Charlotte. Look! There's Charlotte's jeep. Do you want to stop and visit?" And Kirsten exclaimed, "YES!" So I turned at the next light (for the light had turned green by this point) and we had a lovely conversation with Charlotte. As opposed to the Chai tea I had this morning, this time I had a delicious Strawberry and Banana smoothie.

From there, I went to Kirsten's house for some Into the Woods goodness. She still had the computer program on her computer and we were supposed to sing to it the last time I was at her house, but we ran out of time. So, we sang this time and had a blast. We sang pretty much the whole show...with a few songs not sung because we either couldn't remember it or we didn't want to sing it. Overall, it was a fun time trying to remember the words and remembering what a hard time we had trying to remember which Into the Woods we were supposed to sing.

Well, that's about it. Tomorrow I have a DT pop can drive, Grinch auditions, and Brooke's birthday party. Bye.
