Happy New Year!

Welcome back! I hope you all had a nice break. I know it was short, but hopefully you still managed to do some relaxing, some reuniting, and lots of memory-making. :o) I had a ton of fun visiting the twins (who are HILARIOUS now!), and making a road trip down to Bismarck, ND to visit friends from International Music Camp. Now we're back and ready to go with the last week and a half of classes before midterms and final exams.

We had an awesome choir rehearsal today! Thanks to the Senior Choir who had a wonderful sight-reading session of "Prayer of the Children" - a gorgeous 4-part SSAA a cappella arrangement in 4/4 and 5/4 time. Neat! Hilariously though, I may have mentioned that "if you can sing the first 3 pages in tune, a cappella, before the bell rings, I will BAKE YOU COOKIES!" Turns out, that will be happening in the near future as the rehearsal went beautifully. Well done, ladies!

The Sound of Music rehearsals will start again today in full force. We will be doing a full run of Act 1 tonight in the auditorium from 7-9pm. A full schedule from now until the run of the show should be made available by tomorrow.

Our beloved little blue betta fish, Bill Shakespeare, kicked the bucket so to speak on December 21st. He had a burial at sea (aka toilet). We will get a new little betta fish shortly. RIP Bill!
