So much for finishing that last post tomorrow.

Anyway, CHOIR.

So at the end of last year, I tried out for concert choir, which is basically the highest one if you don't count the smaller groups like Bel Canto and Synergy, and I got in, I'm pretty sure for one reason and one reason alone. That is the fact that I am a decent sightreader, meaning depending on how hard it is I can often look at a tune and be able to sing it, using my knowledge of music theory, it if you give me a starting note. When I had to do that during my audition I did pretty well. My actual voice sucks as of now. I'm hoping to improve it, a lot.

I am an alto. When I was auditioning and she was testing my range, I am like 99.999% sure that she said "A soprano!" when I finished. And for my sister, "An alto!" (My sister got into advanced treble, and is an alto without question; she can easily sing down to a low C.) So I thought that I was a soprano, and I learned the soprano part for the song that Ms. Lizama gave us to practice. I went to Emma's and she helped me learn it. Emma is AMAZING. She's our section leader with Lindsee, who is also AMAZING. A few days later, I got a facebook message from Lindsee, telling me about an alto sectional. I told her I would love to come, but I wasn't an alto! She told me I was on the list of altos, and she called Ms. Lizama and asked about it, and apparently I was an alto all along! So I went to the sectional, and learned the alto part. And I definitely AM an alto, but it's weird because I'm so sure she said I was a soprano at first. Anyway, I'm happy being an alto. :)

We had the concert choir retreat on Saturday and it was really fun. I can tell choir is going to be awesome. (Of course, band wins over everything, but still.) It's a very different feeling not being the one who pretty much always has their part down. Emma and Lindsee are so eager to help everyone out though, even though they could totally just ignore everyone if they wanted and wallow in their little bubbles of perfection.

But choir is just the beginning of all the exciting stuff that's going on this year!! The rest will be posted about soon.
