I would write a more detailed entry, except that I have an IPE103 assignent due at 3pm, and I only have an hour and a half to do it before I have more lectures. Suffice to say that I am alive and well, well, not well, per say, as I'm still getting over a cold and mum fears I have a bacterial infection, but living and breathing is a start, right?Very happy with my new shiny laptop. Pam, you suck. Get a blog, not an LJ. Too many people are playing games in UCC. At least the network connection to the laptop seems to be working now. Took 3 different cables yesterday before James found one that worked. Anyway. Off to do IPE103... *sigh*... Friday, July 19, 2002
stupid blogger. please work?
well, due to no proper net connection all the way through vienna, because we were too busy competing, no net connection in llangollen, because it's a small welsh country town, and no time in london (or money), there was no blogging for a while. oops.however, I'm now back in Perth after another horrendously long flight, and my thoughts will continue to be posted up, when I have time to type them all up. And have the notebook I was writing them in with me. (notebook is currently at home). For those of you who don't yet know, the MLC Chorale competed in two festivals, the Vienna International Youth and Music Festival, and the Llangollen International Music Eisteddford. In Vienna, we came equal first with the Bel Canto choir from New Zealand in the Treble Choir section. In Llangollen, we came fourth in the Senior Childrens Choir section. (the previous best an australian choir has come in that section was 7th). We were in the children's choir section, because our choir was 13yr olds to 18yr olds, and the youth choirs must be 16 - 25 yrs old. so, expect blogging to resume as normal. after I catch up on everyone's blogs... (has three weeks worth of blogs to read...) Monday, July 01, 2002
and the thoughts continue...
no caps. sorry. 31/06/02 ### am sitting in jugendherberge in cologne, waiting for my turn in the shower. am rooming with fellow yr 13s annie and judy and small yr 8s (kidlywinks) claire, sarah and haz (annie´s sister harriet). small drama as we were settling in - sarah´s lock wouldn´t open (she locked her case with a padlock). we trekked down to reception, where a very nice german man who spoke ´a little´ english took a few minutes to find us boltcutters fior sarah´s lock. luckily, her key works. i mean, her spare lock. dammit, this interface sucks. i can´t see shit. anyway. amon bottom bunk because sarah claims she´ll get asthmaif she sleeps on the bottom. she´d better have worse asthma than me or i´m going to kick her in her sleep. stupid asthma. room full of germans downstairs, all intently watching soccer. ...brazil had better win, or i´m going to be so annopying. annoyed. damn, this sucks. ...kidlywinks worried about how they look. are amusing. they look just fine. ### brazil won! is all good. germns very depressed. all left quietly from room. cute bunny rabbits i bushes and eating grass. took photo. feel like suck a gurl. girl. say this to annie, who replies, but you /are/ a girl. i clarify - i meant a /girly/ girl. rehearsal at 4pm. ### 1/07/02 rehearsal yesterday long and involved. late people got told to return to their rooms and very apparently on the verge of tears. silly peoplew.. they should have set their watches correctly in the aeroplane for those of us at the rehearsal, a lot of us were dizzy and headspinny, anbd sonme felt like they were still moving, even though they were sitting down. mmm, bus moving makes writing all bad. anyway. my tuning forks are all out of tune. the g and the d are vaguely in tune, as in, /almost/ exactly on pitch, but the a and f are flat. i have to sing them up a semitone, although the a is flatter than the f. after the rehearsal wqe had dinner. zthe jugendherberge staff had cooked me a large potatoe in foil. so with this i had some grated carrot and a piece of meatr. i think it was pork, but it could have been turkey. the general consensus is splkit. we decicded top call it uim, or unidentifiable meat. after that bbshop was called for a rehearsal. we were all completely wasted by this point, as our bodies were telling us that it was 1:30 in the morning. despite tiredness, rehearsal was okay. fixed and learnt moves, fixed pitch of basses when out. after this, we crashed. ah, the goodness of sleep. ...morning. the sun rises at 4am. stupid sun. dozed until 6, when decided was pointless and as breakfast was ar 7, might as well get up and have shopwer.
