<p>why, yes, I do sing a cappella. I also do know a number of songs from musicals, having performed in quite a few, including west side story (my favorite). can you believe i didn't get the part of maria? quelle outrage! it was actually given to this girl who didn't have the range and was a dancer and looked very much like natalie wood. sigh. anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah, i'll sometime put up some recordings of musical theater and popular stuff etc, but right now, I am on page 12 (as in my 12th page of handwritten notes) of review for my ap chem final tomorrow. :D</p>

<p>oh, and zante - displacedny was deferred ea, like me. but we're pals now, so i hope we both get in rd. :)</p>

62

<p>Mwahaha. On a semi-related note, I finally finished Paper 1 of my IB English stuff. Comparison of Life of Pi and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.</p>

63

<p>I Have Officially Just Taken 15 Pages Of Notes</p>

64

<p>T H A T W A S S U P P O S E D T O B E I N ** C A P S**</p>

65

<p>aaaaand now it's 20 pages.</p>

66

<p>wow, 5 pages took me an hour? lame. for me. i learned a lot, though.</p>

67

<p>AWESOME!!! I finally got those tracks to work! On Mac, Download: Desktop: File: Get Info: Open With: Windows Media Player. There we go.</p>

<p>AWESOME!!! I think you're going to come to New York City. . . .</p>

68

<p>I hated Life of Pi...
and I always thought it was contemporary fiction, didn't think it was worthy of being taught in classes. Unless you're referring to your choice novel llamapyjamas?
(btw, whenever i see your name, I think llampy...random) </p>

<p>I handed in my 13 page english final today <em>whew</em> 7 days until next semester for me...</p>

<p>Becky, same with my person- we were both deferred, which is better than if only one of us got in I think...esp since pton was binding.</p>

69

<p>jono! i am really excited for this audition, but i am not so excited at the prospect of waiting around for a billion hours for the alleged callbacks. and missing the first act of turandot.</p>

<p>zante - yeah, but it turns out the displacedny is a finalist for this big scholarship and is seriously considering it (even over yale) which makes me sad, because i want to go to school with him. but that's just me</p>

70

<p>Oh no! a scholarship for a school that's very far away??
Well, I guess we'll all have to wait and see what happens in April!
<em>fingers crossed</em></p>

71

<p>The following conversation transpired tonight:</p>

<p>Him: Would you rather go to Yale or Columbia/Juilliard? </p>

<p>Me: Would you rather accept the Morehead and go to Carolina, or go to Yale? With everything? And Becky? </p>

<p>Him: That's not fair. Would you rather go to Penn or to Duke? </p>

<p>Me: I didn't apply to Duke. </p>

<p>Him: But if you had to choose, which one would you choose? Penn (blah) or Duke (Scott)?</p>

<p>Scott, of course. :P</p>

72

<p>lol, that's really cute! I hope it all works out</p>

73

<p>llamapyjamas - whenever I see your name, I think "llamy," so I say to myself something that sounds like, "llameepyjamees."</p>

74

<p>amazing that you didn't get the part of maria. i love west side story too :D we did it last year for our musical. i was in the pit :) you should sing a boy like that or america or something.. also, if you haven't heard it (you probably have though i bet) listen to glitter and be gay from candide :P</p>

75

<p>Well, everybody, I discovered today that I can make decent recordings with a small plastic microphone and my computer. So here they are: musical numbers from various shows. </p>

<p>Caveat emptor: I, uh, didn't know all the lyrics for all of them, so enjoy my intermittent commentary and tittering. :D</p>

<p>Enjooooy everybody</p>

76

<p>*** you're amazinggg :D</p>

77

<p>Hey wanna trade voices? Actually no, as great a voice that is, it'd be kinda weird coming from a guy...</p>

78

<p>You must come to Yale. Then I can somehow steal your talent.</p>

79

<p>so guys, i have a plan - if you each write a letter to yale explaining that frecklybeckly HAS to be accepted because x y z, then they're SURE to accept me!!</p>

<p>!!!!!!!</p>

80

<p>You have an amazing, beautiful voice. Good luck with Juilliard/Yale/et al - anywhere that doesn't take you is seriously missing out.</p>
