Ah, it's so amusing: Every term of chorus so far, by the time it's over, it's a huge relief. I'm often just a wee bit sick of the music (of course, 99% of that disappears on stage--I'm just focusing on doing my best on every song and expressing the theme of the music and watching Joan like a hawk), I know I'll be glad to have all my Thursday nights to myself, and not worry about memorizing music or anything. Aaaah, I think to myself. Thank gods that's done.

While I was at my parents' house I grabbed the CD of my first concert. I've been listening to it. It's been long enough since my first concert (over a year!) that when I listen, I can actually hear the entirety of the pieces, and not just obsess over my part. I seriously have no idea how much of our music sounds until I hear the archive CD later, because I generally only hear the other parts in reference to mine--getting a harmony right, or knowing cues, that kind of thing.

And now I'm all itchy to start singing again. Like, really bad. I find myself randomly singing sections of songs from my concerts. Even though many times it sounds odd because my section won't have the melody. Last term there was one song where for a whole page, the lower divisi of alto ones stayed on a D. Good lord.

I should find out how I can get the CDs for my other two concerts without waiting for my first rehearsal in a month. I've paid for them, darnit.

Also: Damn. I forgot. We're good. *lol*

I have dreamed on this mountain
since first I was my mother's daughter
and you can't just take my dreams away
not with me watchin'
You may drive a big machine
but I was born a great big woman
and you can't just take my dreams away
without me fightin'

This old mountain raised my many daughters
some died young, some are still living
If you come here for to take our mountain
well we ain't come here to give it

I have dreamed on this mountain
since first I was my mother's daughter
and you can't just take my dreams away
not with me watchin'
No you can't just take my dreams away
without me fightin'
No you can't just take my dreams away!


In other news: My new driver's license has probably the most unattractive picture of any DL I've ever had.

And my sore throat and dry cough are truly irritating. Grr. I don't feel sick or anything, but I'm almost positive it's post-nasal drip from my allergies, judging by how the drip is continuing into the daytime. *gag* *sucks on another goddamn lozenge*

Looking forward to going out tonight. I wanna dance!!
