Hehe, it took me quite a while longer. I didn't really start posting until last year June or so? I think it was later even.
And yes, I was in a chorus for a year and have been looking to join one here since I came back from studying abroad, but so far to no avail. So I haven't really been keeping up with singing

And that's the trouble with Elves, right there.

They're like the poster children for "Hubris".

The Noldor, and especially my family are, anyway.

I love my Elves, though. Well, some elves. Noldor elves. Well, Noldor elves not of the line of Fingolfin...well, er...maybe I just like the Fëanorians with one or two exceptions...

Oh, and I know it's weird, but I generally post on messageboards kind of half IC, so I hope it doesn't bug anyone.

Oh, heck, honey.

Being who you are, you'll be annoying a nutcase or three any minute. Might as well resign yourself.

I doubt it will be the Nolder component that fetches 'em first, though.

*thoughtfully* What is it about chocolate? This is pretty bland stuff, and yet I'm still eating it. Darn bunny.

Mari - that's great! I was in choir in high school, and then in the audition concert choir and a barbershop quartet (all women) in college. We went on a great West Coast tour in '98, singing in Chicago (where we flew out of), Seattle, Portland, San Francisco and LA...amazing experience! What part do you sing?

SCA - Chocolate is an enigma. It really isn't that amazing, yet you just can't stop eating it.

None actually, that's sort of the problem
Usually in the evenings I read some of the coursework from friends, or help people translate, but I forgot to bring my articles to my parents place and no one needs help translating, so it's kinda quiet.

Alto/Mezzo whatever was needed. I never had lessons or something though.
I'm so jealous of all you people who have clubs in high school and university! We don't have such a system at all!

I'm on spring break right now, which has meant a great deal of free time. When classes start back I won't have so much time on the computer.

*hears other people cheering*

And the day after tomorrow I'm heading to Belgium, too, for a week. Who knows if I'll have internet access then!

EDIT: Oh, and I sing 1st Soprano...or whatever they need. I'm rather proud of my range. Nearly 3 octaves.

re: chocolate: I think it's the serotonin release that keeps you going back for more. Evil stuff.

Belgium? That's "close" to my place. Wave when you fly over the Netherlands!

We're actually flying into Amsterdam, and then catching a bus! So I'll say hi to your country.

That sounds awesome. I'd love to do the netherlands someday (I'm half dutch). Closest I've been was flying over it on the way to Vienna.

No, I, and my entourage, are going to stay with Mari.

Nothing like having houseguests to make you appreciate time alone.
