so sad...

I find it really sad that when city of glass comes out, we will all be separated. Cody and Shauna are going to the IB program, sara, lishi and i are rushlets, emma and katie are going to ESA, and Olivia is going to UFA. (If i'm forgetting anyone, I am sooooo sorry!) Livi, you a loner out of the blog. I really hope we are still going to stay in touch. I think that every month starting in september, the blog members (and perhaps others) should meet together and go to the mall or sompin. Cody and Shauna, you two NEVER blog!! BLOG BLOG BLOG!!

Sara, I need your input on my essay. Lishi and Emma said it was good, but I bet they are just saying that..... :)

Le Violette

Lowly violet, silent blowing, Dewy fragrance sweet bestowing; Modestly thy charms half hiding 'Neath the leaflets, 'neath the leaflets green recesses, Thy example calms and blesses, My ambition gently chiding, Bear this message, tender flower.

That's part of the song in English translation. Can somebody translate it into dumb-as-a-doornail now?

-Emma

Wooow....

Wow Emma, have fun singing that! I think you can do it though, after I heard you sing Unexpected Song. And Sophie, I refuse to tell you what I think of your essay until you give me some feedback on my story! I am about to check my email to see if you did, by the way. Sheesh. So I just got back from the M.S. Walk. It was fun! Me and Shauna got STUFFED MONKEYS and we chatted a lot along the way. I really had to go to the bathroom by the time we got back because I had 2 cups of coffee. Tee hee, woops. It was good! Can't wait for the team photo, me and Shauna held up our monkeys in it!

Explanation

I have to sing it as my Test Piece. Fun Fest is July 19-20, and it's a singing competition at my music school. That song is to test my musical ability at the grade 7 level. That's the last level before Open, which is for proffessionals and singing people. I get to pick another one for my Artist Piece, which will be Listen by Beyonce. That one is for musical creativity. Here it is.

P.S. Alicia and Sophie read my story and send feedback please!

You have to sing it why???

No offense, but I'm laughing at you. That is like, Opera! Why do you have to sing that song? I thought you got to sing your own song.

Singing

Guess what I have to sing as my test piece for vocal at Fun Fest 2008? Le Violette by Scarlatti. It's an Italian song. Here's a video of it. Don't laugh at me.
