Time for another exciting update from the world of Michelle [or Lily, for my Grobie friends ;)] . . . my LaunchCast station is grrfully not working right now and I'm on my brother's computer so I can't listen to my Media Player stuff . . . however, I found a nice Classical Crossover station on MSN so all is well . . .
I talked to Erin in London for a bit on Saturday and had fun going to the Brit links on her website, plus felt loved because she posted a few pictures just for me on her website: a shot of the West End (London's theatre district) and a picture of a restaruant called "Virginia Woolf's Grills, Burgers, & Pasta" . . . I wonder if they have Boeuf en Daube . . . hehe. Your pictures are lovely, Erin! Also on Saturday, my family babysat my "adopted" aunt's daughter, Elizabeth (I always have to refrain from calling her Miss Dalloway), who was adopted from China and is adorable. After dinner, we played with her outside--I must have blown bubbles for almost an hour! She absolutely loved the bubbles and tried to catch all of them . . . I don't really like small children all too much, but Elizabeth is alright . . . in small doses . . .
Sunday I sang with my church choir again--'twas fun and I really realised how much I missed singing in a choir--chorus was one of the things I enjoyed most about high school and I was quite saddened when I couldn't join the choir at SU--'tis audition only and you have to be really good to get in (but they sound awesome) . . . I also got to talk to Low-C, which was great since I haven't really talked to her much since the last time I came home for break . . . we're trying to decide whether we want to go see PoA on opening night right after her graduation or whether we want to go to Kylie's party right after graduation and then see PoA on Saturday . . . I think we're leaning towards the former. I filled her in on the movie of PotO and I think we're probably going to see that too . . . we also wondered about how John Williams was going to be able to score Star Wars 3 and Indy 4 at the same time, and then decided that he can do it because he's John Williams . . . there was also slight squee-age over "Remember Me" . . . ;) My family and I went to the mall after lunch and my mom and I looked for something to get my friend Alicia for her wedding gift. While we were passing FYE, I saw a sign advertising something about PoA for $19.99--my first thought was "OOH! The soundtrack's out already!!" and I proceded to rush across the hallway-type thing to check it out . . . unfortunately, 'twas just the video game, but I still checked the soundtrack section just in case . . . I'm such a John Williams fangirl (and it's probably my dad's fault too--he has the original albums for the SW trilogy, ET, Close Encounters, Superman . . . etc). I looked at a bunch of Andrew Lloyd Webber collections and then headed over to the piano/sheet music store to see if they had the sheet music for Closer yet . . . they do, but I didn't have any money with me . . . oh well . . . I better stop now, since my brother sort of wants to use his computer now . . . farewell and have a great day!
