For the past four days, I've woken up with the song "An English Teacher" from Bye, Bye Birdie stuck in my head.
Which is funny, considering I wasn't even in the show, my brother was.
And considering that I have never heard the song before
BUT, what can I say? I have a head for music.
I'm always humming some tune or other, and since there is a song for every occasion, each entry in this online diary-of-sorts will be the title of a song. Hey, I'm new at this. I need some kind of gimmick.
The title is also perfect for this first stab at writing down what I'm thinking as I'd love to be an English teacher at some point, along with being an actress and a singer. I already sing in multiple choirs and I'm in acting classes at school, but my most inspiring teacher in high school was my English Teacher. I decided that "When I grow up, I want to be like her." My siblings call me the "Grammar Police." Seeing as I correct most of what they say, it's probably an accurate nickname.
But, back to music. I sing in two choirs right now which is the smallest number of groups that I've been in since I was 5 or 6. Somehow, I got it down to Church choir and Harmonium Choral Society, and it's not a bad gig. Harmonium just finished a concert that was absolutely GLORIOUS. Harmonium sings "Into the Blue"
The text for the piece is spoken beforehand by the poet who came out from PA just for the concert. The choir here is 100 voices strong.
I'm sure there's more to say, but my brain needs a jump start. So, I will leave you with an "inspirational" photo which pretty much means it was the first to catch my eye this morning.
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen adieu!
Hi Caitlyn! (It's Grace V.C.) My mom says she swears we were separated at birth. You wanna know why? I started a blog this week too! Creepy, right? It's called Amazing Gracie. You should check it out. http://www.amazinggracieblogs.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteThat was a really good idea making all your posts the name of a song. My blog isn't nearly as interesting a s this, but I do have lolcats!
