speech night 09

I bet it was boring for people in the audience, but it was seriously fun for me :D The stress of running around getting ready to perform really adds up in the end! I felt more sorry for Erika though, she was in something like 5 items in a row...

Anyway, I started the night by giving the thankyou card to Biro...she was "omgomgomg"ing when she saw it - so worth the effort of hiding the card from her all week! I know a lot of captains (especially house captains) get flowers and engraved jewellery as a thankyou, but to be honest I think an old fashioned card is so much better :)

After being picked on about the way I stand when I play the flute, I was seriously self concious about performing Explosive...the heat of the light combined with the sleepyness and nervousness...weird weird mixture :( but the performance was awesome and I *tried* to have fun but the whole time I was still worried about how high my arms were LOL. I think Biro's electric was crackling really bad, but meh...it sounded a lot better than the Jazz Soiree!

Straight after that was choir (I think I played Here Comes the Sun way too loud...oops)
After that was strings (which I'm not in, thankfully)
Then orchestra (which was very messy but yay that Audria got the trombone bit haha)
Then the mass singing (Black or White by MJ...sounded pretty good on the night, thankfully)
School song
Sung blessing

HOLY CRAP I have never felt so stressed about having my music on me AT ALL TIMES. I also have never felt so intimidated singing the school song next to the elite choir yr 12's singing the descant =__=

So it was a great night in the end :D It's so weird and sad to come to realised that ALLLLL those year 12's won't be in our school next year...and it's even scarier to think about the fact that *I* will be gone from school this time next year

WTH! WHERE DID MY LIFE GO?

xo
ps - Jason's fam bought a new house :D so they took us out for dinner in docklands...chinese restaurant with western twist, YUM!

...except there were moments where I wish Jason was a girl. He's a great kid but even discussing impending zombie apocalypses, his DJing career and explaining Saw I to V gets old eventually :(
