tonight was our concluding concert of jr. high.
it was the last night that i will wear my choir dress.
the night began with doing homework with (the wonderful) sarah michelle.
we then got in our long, black dresses and with a bite to eat we were off.
we hurried in and we immediately swarmed with heat!
my goodness. who knew that it good get so hot!
we practiced our songs and soon it was our turn.
first we sang jesu joy (i kinda loathe that song... talk about long and BORING, but awh well!)
then we sang Sunshine in My Soul.
i was so nervous.
i'm very glad that i got to play piano for it though!
i love that song.
energy.
happiness.
love. <3
then the snow (what joy?)
that was all that mr.manning announced...
and then.
he decided to have us sing... THAT'S ENOUGH!
SURPRISE!
ha. it was great.
i'm thrilled to have been able to sing it at least one more time!
but i was still nervous.
it went good though!
and the best part was that me. and mike. were both wearing bright blue shoes.
LOVE IT! :)
we're truly telepathic.
it's fantastic.
and then we sang in rememberance which i love <3
kylee kerby is an amazing pianst. my goodness!
next were...
the amazing. the handsome. the wonderful. the MEN! ;)
Flashback!
today during school i had to miss seminary :(
it was because i had to go and play defying gravity for the concert choir.
sarah was my page turner.
and i had promised chels she could come along.
so i couldn't disappoint either of them..
so i told brother woodhouse, "i need to go and play piano for the concert choir today.. so i'm going to have to leave a bit earlier... and i'm going to need two page turners... just in case one of them passes out! :)"
at first he pretended to believe us (which was funny)
but then... of course (since brother woodhouse is the best!) he let both of them come with me!
so we went off and had a party!
and during it we asked if we could have a back stage pass to watch the boys!
(and this comes to the point!)
he said that we could come and watch back stage!
now back to the story.
The boys were going on and chelsy, sarah, and i were all talking with each other wanting to go out.
the only problem was the parents in the halls.
so we weren't sure if they'd let us go in and watch.
we went to the door and were about to go in when one of the mom's started coming toward us.
we didn't think she'd let us... so we were kind of just talking to her trying to hint that we wanted to go in..
but. it was unsuccessful.
i had been needing to go. and so i said.. i really need to go!
i'll be back in a bit.
and chelsy asked if i wanted her to come with me.
and of course i did!
so she came
(and sarah didn't :( which was sad)
and i shared my genius plan with chels.
i told her that we could go and check the side doors and then go in there...
and guess what! they were unlocked!
so we went in and got to watch them sing my favorite song! Hey There Delilah
it really makes me melt!
i love it!
we were watching and a boy looked over and saw us and we gave smiled at him
then Another Boy! :) looked at us!
and i gave him a thumbs up like he always does to me when i'm singing <3
and he gave me the most wonderful, big smile!
it was so cute! :)
to make things better i accidentally knocked something over when chels told me to step back!
ha. it was funny.
the rest of the concert was great as well.
someone's watching over me was great.
defying gravity piano playing was pretty good. :)
and boyfriend's back was funny as usual.
and when we all sang together... you raise me up.
i cried. the dedications were so amazing! and it was so amazing!
what a good way to end the night. <3
i love choir and i'm going to miss chamber so much!
my goodness! what a good year! :)
