2 hours of a cappella singing rehearsal shouldn't be a big deal. I do it all the time, several times a week.
But tonight, singing so many high G-Bs, trying to control the vibrato and keep it soft so it balances with everyone else.... ahhhhhh!
Plus a round of high belting, which the highest notes (an F!!) I have only recently developed... and we sing it way sharp. Double ahh!!!!
(At least I can sing an F now. That's really exciting for me... I thought my belting range ended at E flat. But it's getting higher and higher! Hooray!! (now, granted, I can't sing that song more than 3 times in a row before my voice starts to give out... but still. It's exciting.))
So... no voice. But no need to talk for the rest of the night, so no biggie!
TiVo didn't record Privileged because of the Obama victory. Which is great, because I'm really happy he won... but also a bummer. I'd like to have seen the episode. I guess it's off to internet television methods to watch the show!
I've gotten a little off track with NaNoWriMo, but if I write a few extra words a day I'll be fine. I'm not worred. I can finish... I just need to get the willpower again to start. But I've been writing on and off during boring classes, so I think I'll be ok.
Homework time! Lets get this massive Philosphy exercise out of the way.

tired - Music:Ahava Ktna (look up the "Kosher Pig" version on youtube!)
A) Acting performance and project got moved to next Tuesday. Hooray! An extra week to work on it.
B) Still not sure about NaNoWriMo. I think I've figured out a way to incorporate a bunch of sub-plots, so that it's not really about the girl on the bench, but about the people who pass her and see her daily. I feel like it's going to get a teeny bit philosophical. (Considering I'm in a philosophy class now, it's not surprising.) But then I want to write a teeny-bopper love story too... Well, maybe it'll be a giant combination of stories, so when I get bored with one I do another. It's going to be interesting. Let's see how this goes...
C) Spent 3:30-8:30 homeworking. Usually I can't sit down and just focus, but after class I just went and did a lot of reading, then worked on my paper due Friday in the library. Speaking of the library...
D) I discovered a bunch of new things about Leavey today. There's 2 floors of computers! And a periodical room! And a decent section of just plays! (Especially when compared to the library at home. That one sucks. This one's not half bad.) Can't believe it's my second year here and I'm just discovering new things.
E) Privileged=adorable. I love that show. It's not doing super well, as far as I can tell, but I haven't read a TV-blog that hasn't liked it a lot. And don't tell me if you know of any... I love the show. It's so cute! But I can't stand the title sequence. It's super-short, but no one can type like that! Drives me nuts everytime...
