Ive been trying to arrange guest speakers to do talk backs after the show. A 15 minute conversation with a Holocaust survivor has left me teary eyed. He didnt even say that much, but hearing a human being very briefly talk about what he went through as a 13 year old boy has left me broken hearted.
Talking with genocide survivors about what they've been through makes you feel terrible anguish. Well, at least it makes me feel that way. Oddly, the survivors I've talked to also conveyed this feeling of strength and never giving up, always remembering and fighting so nobody else has to experience what they had to. Each time, I felt so proud and honoured of them.
we had a talk from a survivor of bergen-belsen a couple of years ago. really moving. never forget it |

Tonight is the dirty bridal shower.
The planning of this has meant funny conversations that I dont normally have with my female friends. Such as last night's: "I accidently bought lubricated condoms." |

The music school where I take singing lessons organized a students' show tomorrow, and I'll be singing live for the first time in my life.
And I have a cold. I'm so nervous that today at the rehearsal I missed twice a note I never miss. And it was just the rehearsal. I hope it doesn't sound so terribly awful tomorrow :o(. |

started the day harvesting my crops on "farmville" on facebook - which doesn't work for the moment being. Then spend the next few hours talking to Zygna and other fellows who have problems with it - which was actually fun :)
Interesting guys :)
Played the guitar, played computer - did absolutely nothing for school -which ...well is really bad. That's why I'm gonna go do something now...
well anyway - it's nice to see that this thread made it to page 95! |

Just one song, I don't think I could make it if I was to sing more songs, lol. I'm going to sing Driftwood, it was my coach's choice :o). It's going to be acoustic: just me and a guy with a guitar. I'm so scared that I'm going to start vocalizing on my own now :oP. |
