snow, indians and a recital

Hmm...I tried to post this a couple days ago but I guess it didn't go through...

So we finally got real snow in Wisconsin the other day. I woke up to an obnoxious scraping sound and was quite annoyed till I realized it was people scraping the 5 inches of snow or so off our porch! It all melted within 2 days but it was temporarily exciting.

Then comes my thanksgiving story: we were in church the other day and time came for the children's sermon. At some point the pastor asked the kids what the pilgrims ate at the first thanksgiving and one girl yells out "INDIANS!" hahaha

Finally, my friend Maura and I just found out our recital date- it will be Saturday, May 23rd at 6:30 pm. So...if you're driving through Appleton you should come see it! It'll be pretty sweet...or you could hold off till next year when I give an hour long recital by myself ;)

I got semi finals which is meh. but then I discovered something in the lesson after that that's going to change the way I sing for the better...So recital selection is next week and my recital is going to be aweeesome.

music update

I got a solo in the Messiah! It's the little bit before Glory to God that starts with "There were shepherds abiding in the field". So that's exciting. Also I'll be going to Whitewater Wisconsin (AKA...nowhere) for NATS this weekend so wish me luck!
