Isn't it annoying, how you always plan on doing things, but never get around to actually doing it? Lately, I've become a master at procrastinating. Those who read my story must have noticed that the updates are fewer than before. (But when it comes to stories, I'm not just being lazy, I promise.)

See, I even got a new editor. She bites me whenever I make mistakes (and when she feels like it, when she's hungry, and when she wants to go out, play, or just want a bit of attention).

Yesterday, we performed the Christmas Oratorio by Bach. 'Twas fun, even the high bits. I've expanded my vocal range to F3-F6 now, and I'm proud.

Do you feel like broadening your musical horizon? Have a listen to the first song from the score. "Jauchzet, frolocket!"

Something I find a bit funny, happened while we were warming up our purty voices. I stood beside this man and was so freaking annoyed that one of the extra singers who had been invited to sing with us, sang better(as in using better techniques)than me. I didn't like the feeling of being less a singer than someone who didn't take lessons every week. My self-confidence kinda died.

Then it turned out he wasn't an extra singer. He was one of the professional opera singers we had hired. Self-confidence restored.

While I'm talking about the opera singers, I've to say they were superb. The woman who sung the solo alto parts had such confidence; the baritone had such a wonderful rich deep voice (he's on my "to-kidnap"-list now); and even the tenor had a lovely voice! Normally, I don't like tenors, thinking they strive too much when they sing, but this one had a perfect voice.


Enough about singing. If you saw the title, you're probably wondering where the ZOMBIES! are. I've been meaning to post my Halloween pictures, but till now I've forgot about it. So here they are :3

Here's me, about to eat my mad scientist's brain or get my brains blown out (notice her gun).

While I was putting on a bandage, Mau decided to help. Instant pain. (And no, she's not wearing a costume. She had been to the vet. But we did joke about her being an escapee from the mental ward; it looked like she was in a strait-jacket.)

Since I doubt I'll post another journal entry till... February, I'll just say Happy Christmas :3
