hi everyone!
this summer i am in a summer strings program, and i am playing my viola in it. to place you in the right class, you have to play a song in front of these people who lookat your posture, intunation etc. then you have to sight-read a song and they see how well you do witht that. i did all those, and was sure i did pretty well, but they put me in the beginning orchestra!! so i was determined to show those neanderthals by playing so well that they couldn't deny that i belonged in a better place. i guess i did, because they moved me up to the intermediate 9i still would have liked to be in advanced though ) after only 3 days. so now i'm totally happy!

String Quartet
Um, i don't really know how to put pictures on here so bear with me...
i am in a string quartet (consisting of two violins, a viola, and a cello), that i play viola in. Just for those of you who don't know, a viola is shaped like a violin, but has the strings of a cello, it is the platypus of the music world! i love it, and three of my friends and I got together to play quartet music for a school thing. i guess someone there really liked us, because we got hired out for a christmas gig! over time up to now we have played at other places (parties, community events etc.) quite a few times. This is great because i get fun , fame, and a little extra cash! the cello player Jason is VERY funny, and i really like him alot (but don't get any ideas). i love playing with my friends, and i encourage anyone and everyone to get involved in music!

Siiiiiiing!
hey everyone!
i am in a totally cool singing group called young women in harmony for ages 12-21. we sing barber shop in 4 part harmony and it is really fun!. on Saturday, February 24, a small group (about 10) of us sang "the locomotion" for the Healdsburg town talent show, and it will be on t.v. next Saturday! i think i did very well, we all sounded great, but a few people weren't smiling, but hey, i guess i'll just stand out more then, and that's ok with me! (i'm not being snobby, just so you know!) Sorry i don't have any pictures right now, it just happened last night!

Happy New Year 2007
My favorite New Year's Memory was grandma hiding the basketball behind Jesus... It didn't work.
My goals for 2007 are to save up for a Nintendo DS and personally I want to be better at practicing piano at least 20 minutes a day.
