Well, I know I haven't updated for a little while, so I shall update now.
Life so far in California has been pretty calm. That's kind of the reason I haven't updated in a while... Ha ha. However, today was pretty interesting. To me, that is...
I went to the fabric store with my mom and we bought lots of fabric. I have a quilt I'm doing and I needed to get the front and back fabric. I also got some fleece so I could make a tie-quilt. Or whatever it's called. I love tying. It's super fun, and requires basically NO effort.
I also started crocheting on Sunday. (Ha ha! I feel so crafty!)
Today I had choir, and it was VERY exciting. Again, to me. I learned a new breathing technique. Actually, it's supposed to teach you how to breath more deeply. It's simple. All you do is close one nostril and breath deeply through it. Then you quickly count aloud until you run out of air. We had a contest and I got in 2nd with 58! Go me!
Then we learned a projecting technique that I personally thought was HILARIOUS! First, you bite on your thumb, and then put the rest of your fingers on your forehead. Then loudly say "EEE HEE HEE HEE HEE..." until you run out of breath. It was hilarious. And trust me, we DID sound louder that usual.
It felt good to be around me friends again. They were so kind, and we had lots of laughs. (Thanks to Jake and his overenthusiastic ways!)
Moral of the story: CHOIR IS FUN!
I'm sure there's a more deep moral in there somewhere, but I'm too lazy to find it. =D

haha. Funny mental pictures. I hear if you try to sing while you are running (e.i. hold out a long note while you run) it helps you to control your air...
I'm glad you didn't miss too much choir! I was worried that you did. Interesting to know what you guys do at practice.
Choir always has the funniest techniques, doesn't it?
