Choir Tour

Man I'm exhausted! I just got back from our choir tour to Jackson. We left yesterday morning at 6:30, had three concerts yesterday, then woke up today at 7 and had two more concerts, then we drove back. I don't think I've ever been so tired of singing! My calves are killing me! I've been wearing heels while standing for pretty much the entire past 36 hours. My right arm feels like when you go to the gym for the first time in like a year....it's really sore from holding up our music folders while singing. I know that sounds super pathetic right? We can't even hold a folder. But seriously a thick, choir folder, with about 10 pieces of long choral music, and holding it up in the air for a good 12 hours or so...yeah it hurts. Gosh, the pain us singers go through! Yeah I know...I'm a baby. But it was so much fun. As tired as we were, I really enjoyed going to the different high schools and seeing the reactions we got from the kids that we sang for. We sing this one gospel song and that's everyone's favorite. As soon as we bust out that song, everyone is clapping. I love it. It's my favorite too....I wish I had one of those huge gospelly voices. Anyways....I just had singing on the brain, since I just got back from singing and all. IF anybody's bored next Sunday, the 11th, we have our fall concert at Cathedral of Immaculate Conception at 4:00. So come on out if you don't have anything else to do, or if you just really love choral music! Theres a good gospel song in it for you....it's worth it!
