Post Concert Feelings

So the past couple of weeks have been pretty crazy. Mostly just stressful and frustrating. Mainly just frustrating. I had the New World Choir Holiday Concert on last Thursday, and it was pretty crazy. Concerts are usually stressful even without after school rehearsals and new music a couple of weeks before the concert. A lot of people are in their church choir or the choir in the middle school, but this is a pretty big deal. It is one of the best attended events for the school and because of our amazing new Dean of Music, we are back on WLRN(our local PBS, basically public broadcasting). Last year, because of the cuts to WLRN's budget we weren't able to record the show and air it, but because of our amazing parent booster club, and the dean's advocacy we are back on. If you are in the Miami area, we are airing on December 22 at 7 PM. I hear that it is being syndicated for the rest of Florida, but make sure you check your local listings.

Now that I am done with that shameless plug I can share some pictures of the concert. There is a phenomenon in teenagers recently to take enumerable amount of self pictures, what they call "selfies". I kind of blame this on the advent of front facing cameras on iphones. These selfies have always existed, but I feel like have gotten worse. As a result of this resurgance of self pictures I have developed a new technique to get around looking ridiculous(a little too late for that). They are what I call "usies". You just take all of your selfies with your friends and you don't look as self indulgent.
Me and my friend Chantal, we are so excited for the concert
Here is me and chantal looking all posh
You can tell that some of us like our uniforms more than others
look at these pretty faces
And duck faces are pretty cute too!
Now I just have to look forward to juries :)
