All-State (2nd Day)


Okay, so I got up and went to breakfast at the hotel. Well when I go there, there was one of those waffle makers! (they make the best waffles.) I poured my waffle batter in and went to go get yogurt i came back and waited for 15 minutes! I though Waffles don't take this long!" so I opened the maker and split my waffle in two. Turns out someone turned off the waffle maker while I was getting my yogurt.(So mad) So I had 2 yogurts instead. Then we were off to th races! (or rehearsal for 8 hours) we signed in did all the normal stuff, then we met our director! was he hilarious or what?! He was short, bald, and was drinking a huge cup of coffee. His personality was better though. He made a joke out of everything and really helped me with my singing.He also loved Transformers. Whenever he found a microphone left on, he would run up to it ad say a transformers line!! After rehearsal, we got changed into our performance clothes. Talk about a packed bathroom with make-up, straightness, and hair-spray! SO after i was done we all decided as a group to rehearse our 2 least favorite songs. then it was Show Time.


When we came out on stage you can feel all eyes glued on you (or the choir) it is an amazing feeling. Like your famous or somethin
g. Anyway, we sang: Turtle Dove Go Way' From My Window(all s) Keep your Lamps Fauna Conzona(Italian) When we were done we all said goodbye to our new friends(though i had little) and we left! It was an AMAZING experience and I hope to go again next year. All the of us choir performers became friends. We cried together, we laughed together, and sang together (DUH) but I really really enjoyed it.
