SO I SAW THE VALKYRIES IN MILAN YESTERDAY....
No, really, I actually did. I myself was not in Milan, but the performance was! Opera in Cinema is something that Carmike cinemas do and it is AWESOME. They basically simulcast operas (and ballets) that are being performed in Europe. So mom and I got up super early and took Berlitz to the pet resort so we could get to the theater at 11 AM.
The performance was incredible. It was 5 hours long, but it really didn't feel like it. The actress playing Sieglinde was incredible, and she's played 16 different Wagner roles in her lifetime! They interviewed her during one of the intermissions. The actress playing Brünnhilde was also incredible. And everyone else, too * ^ *
After that ended mom and I did some Christmas shopping. I only have a few more gifts to buy~ ♥
Oh, I also finally have a copy of Kristin Chenoweth's Christmas CD! It's really good!
