Time for a post for the month of May, or well at least this half...
So I have been up to a lot in the last few weeks, and hopefully I can find the pictures to corroberate that story.
well as of today, there's no photos of our Dido and Aeneas concert. It was fantastic. I really almost cried when Dido died. One of our friends told us that she doesn't believe in God, but whenever we sing in the church, it's really something magical. And this time we were all in white (the dentist choir, as our director liked to call it.) One of the soloists is the head of the Swiss Youth Choir, and she invited us all to join after hearing us sing. The second night, I heard there were even two newspaper reporters there. People were apparently expecting a school concert and not whatever it is they saw. Anyway, it was amazing.
I've joined the rowing team. I am apparently something of the captain. I love rowing. Physically, it's not that draining, but it takes a whole lot of concentration. Our Championships (1000 m, women's team) are June 2nd, aparently somewhere very beautiful.
I went to the Kanti-Ball, which is a sort of prom thing. Well, really, it was more of a dance and music exhibition. I met up with another exchange student purely by accident, which was cool, then we lost each other at some point. Anyway, nothing compares to Swiss German Rap. It is hilarious. I have pics and videos.
I've also started crocheting a small kitten, but I cannot for the life of me find Polyfil stuffing in switzerland. It is like it doesn't exist. Like no one has even the slightest hint of a thought about its existance.
Other than that, I've been sick, I am looking forward to this Theater week, which is the week after next, my room is a mess, and I am exhausted.
