Upper Tarble full of people screaming and cheering at every result, laughing and talking and eating pizza and there was a COUNTDOWN at 11:00 and they just announced it, and the room went WILD, screaming and cheering and hugging each other and standing on chairs and chanting "YES WE DID" and crowd-surfing a life-size ( Read more... )

Classes! I am taking them. They are busy (especially since I'm taking 5 credits, possibly 5.5... Also organizing a major campus event in a week and a half. Also doing lots of organizational stuff for a cappella auditions coming up. Also attempting to eat and sleep on a regular basis.

WANTED: someone who will lend me their copy of Harry Potter 7 after they're done reading it. I'll bake you something delicious in return.

Come see the Tempest! It opens tomorrow and runs through the Sunday matinee. You can get tickets at www.theatreink.net.

A boy asked me recently what to expect as a singer considering Village Harmony. He ended up not being able to sign up for it, but it got me thinking.

(for those of you who don't know, Village Harmony is my summer camp, a three-week hippie-tastic singing extravaganza involving a two-week concert tour)
