Es ist vollbracht

whew. what a gruelling week. yaccs is only accepting a limited number of subscribers per time frame. luckily, i caught the 12 am cut-off time and voila! i am now able to read your comments, violent reactions, snide remarks and what not, so buh-ring it on!

sunday, tuesday and wednesday were all rehearsal days for choir class. friday was our big day - our "concert". james had this brilliant idea that we were going to sing haydn's seven last words of jesus christ. yes, he's just overflowing with brilliant ideas. right before the concert started, he handed out maracas that we were supposed to shake during "the earthquake" (the final song). unfortunately, it didn't quite have the effect that he hoped for. generally, it was a good one though, considering that we were all amateurs and had never actually sang in german before (at least i haven't). i'm kind of excited to get my cd as i was positioned directly in front of the microphone ( and didn't know it) and i accidentally emitted a huge croak that took even me by surprise.

i'm rereading pride and prejudice, for the umpteenth time. i remember, the first time i read it was one of those komiks versions. i pretty much didn't understand anything, except that girls seemed to dance an awful lot in those days.
