Crazy Music Night
Hey Everybody,
Since you all probably didn´t know we´re having this crazy music night at my school tonight. There are over 2,000 people coming. It´s a part of this series of festivels in Passau called the European weeks. We´re having this big music and art fest here. It it totally going to suck. People are in tin foil costumes fifth graders are making hand motions and singing, you get the picture, but the only good thing is the finale at midnight, some people are doing part of a midsummer nights dream and the chor is doing a bid classical finale and then fireworks. That should be cool. It´s really odd though right now because they´re rehearsing and it sounds like some kind of science fiction movie is taking place outside the window, it creeped me out for a second.
The part that sucks the most about this stupid festival is that I had set up tables and benches more specifically my class had to set up tables and benches. They were supposed to be there yesterday at one o´clock sharp, didn´t get there until 3. So in the mean time we just hung around and did everyone elses work for them. It was alway like, well this is the tenth grade´s job but if you do it they can go practice now, and then they can go home early you aren´t doing anything anyway. So we ended up not only setting up over 500 tables with two benchs each we also ended up taking the plastic off the stage (because it rained, drying the stage, drying the plastic, taping the plastic back together, setting up the wine tent, setting up the beer tent, and coating entire new building with paper rolls with star cut out, yay.
Well that´s the deal right now, just hoping it doesn´t rain. My host mom and I should be going tonight, but it´s an outdoor festival and if it rains that´s not good.
Well, I´ll be seeing you all in 8 days,
Love ya,
April
