An Apology

I am truly sorry Xanga, for I have neglected you these past few weeks. The truth is...there is someone else, Xanga. I guess what I am trying to say, is I'm leaving you for Myspace. Yes, I know this is the second time I have done this to you, but I thought I knew what this relationship consisted of. That is why I came back to you, but alas, my feelings have changed. It's not you, it's everyone else. I can't handle being with you if noone is going to pay attention to you, and give you the comments you deserve, when I can be with Myspace which is read by at least 2 people. You may not understand this now, but in a few days, when you have cooled off, you will realize that my decision to leave you was right. We just weren't meant for each other, Xanga. Maybe we can just be friends? Maybe we can occasionally pass each other in the halls of the internet and exchange a few words. All I know is I am tired of trying to make this relationship work, and I hope you will forgive me.

And with these words, we part.

Bittersweet Symphony

So last night I went and sang Christmas songs to people at a retirement home with NHS. It was really fun, but at the same time, really sad. First, we sang to a group of the "regular" people eating dinner which was cool, some of them sang along, and all of them applauded at the end and such. Then we went down to the "Alzheimer's Wing" which had a security password door and instructions not to "help anyone escape". We were immediately greeted by a screaming woman in a wheelchair being dragged to watch our performance. We were in this small room and a bunch of people in wheelchairs were pushed into a circle and we sang to them. Most of them were completely unresponsive. They just kind of sat there, looking like they were dead. Either that or they just muttered to themselves. It made me sad to look into their eyes and think that 5 or 10 years ago, this person had a normal life. They could think, function, remember their loved ones, and take care of themselves. And now they are reduced to this state. Even their eyes looked dead. It was a very powerful experience.

End

So auditions are over. And I'll have to admit, they weren't too bad. I actually had quite a lot of fun with them. Watching people make funny mistakes in the songs like "would you like to go to dinner?" "gusundheit!" It was all nice and fairly laid back, which made it fun. Although I am very glad they are over. Today marks the end of auditions, school, and crazy choir month. It feels good to relieve some stress and just have some laid back fun, which is exactly what I'm going to do this Winter Break.

It's also really cool to see some alumni come back. It's nice to see how their lives are and how college is for them. I'm already terrified of college. The "I-want-to-get-as-far-away-as-possible-from-high-school" bug has not hit me yet, but I suppose that comes in senior year.

Cast list goes up in an hour and 15 minutes...
