Whats all this jazz about South America?

"I am not now, nor have I ever been Fred. My name is Paul, Paul Varjak and I'm in love with you!"


SO in light of my recital tonight I should maybe practice my pieces a thousand times over....

On second thought---I don't want to........

For the Supreme lack of anything interesting or note-worthy

Wow, I hate it when nobody reads my blog!!

Just sad, thats all..... : )

So I suppose I should post something.....

Okay, well I'm going to sell my camera, because the one I currently have is not at all taking even semi-acceptable pictures, and then I'll be in the market for a Canon d50....

um... Recital is next Friday, which I'm not exceedingly nervous, just another thing to add to the list of "Music things that I have to perform/participate in over the next 2-3 weeks". ☺

I found two super-cool shirts (among other things) at the Lutheran church's rummage sale today (pictures to come -of the shirts and things-not the church) : ). They're both in the process of being altered. ☺

I have duets now, in piano, which is sort of a little terrifying, but at the same time it's just like"Whoa-I play well enough that Julie thinks I can handle duets!" ☺

Casey is home, which is beyond good--we went to see him last night and he was doing really well, so hopefully he stays that way ☺.

Haven't really done anything of note lately...... I'll be sure to post something interesting enough for you to take the time to read it real soon. ☺

the post without a title!! ☺

Sitting here listening to fifties Christmas music (yes, I know what time of year it is ), after my super-soaking walk home from work in the rain.

It actually was more than enjoyable, aside from the fact that it was my work uniform I had to walk home in. I didn't mind getting so wet, I had forgotten how much I love the rain and storms... ☺

And I finally know what rain smells like!! ☺

Accompanist, Zoe'!!

SO I have to blog about my accompanying last night....

IT WENT SUPER WELL!!!!! : D

I didn't mess up at all, but I have to say it was totally the Lord, because I hardly remember even getting up to play!!

But yah-what relief!! It was so good.....

Anuna

SO I, for the first time today, listened to Anuna. And I loved it so much I bought a song of theirs from iTunes: The Wildsong.

Absolutely gorgeous!!!
♫ ♫
A pale bird flies over open sea
Singing sweet soul music to me
The ancient winds crying cold and flying free
Carry winter whispers through the trees

A soft voice murmurs a haunting melody
As it flows to the river from a stream
The gentle breeze carries youthful memory
Through the shaded valley of my dreams

I have come through the darkness
Touched the moon's new fallen dew
I have found there a place
Where the wild song echoes, echoes in my heart

There the dawn is wide with the scent of spring
With a red sun burning on the tide
In the hazel forest the blackbird sings
Of a secret place I keep inside

I have travelled far, I have made the road my home
But that music never will depart
I have walked the shoreline where seabirds cry alone
But a wild song echoes in my heart

I have come through the darkness
Touched the moon's new fallen dew
I have found there a place
Where the wild song echoes in my heart, echoes in my heart
Where the wild song echoes in my heart, echoes in my heart ♫

Love it ♫

Songs From the Heart songbook is here!! : D

You are totally seeing what you think you're seeing!!
SO if anyone was a little lost as far as what to get me for my birthday, this is it!! : D

You know, I wouldn't be so madly in love with this book, if it weren't for 'My Lagan Love' and 'Nil Se'n La'.

I love it!!! : D
