Yes, Yes, I'm Still Alive!
For everyone who's asked, yes, I'm still alive, and I love you muchly :) Yesterday was my iskoole's SCAPE production, the equivalent of our annual concert. The highlight of my evening?'
When I pulled off the solo without a glitch, and hit the top notes after ALL that worrying? Nah.
When a bunch of random kids I didn't know complimented me on my performance? I love them so much and the people here for their immense support....but no, that wasn't it.
When, at the end of the programme, we dropped a friend of mine home who I'd been having a bit of a problem with, and she hugged me? Again, lovely, but no.
It was when the second choir piece we'd prepared came up, after the solo, after all the glitz and glamour of the first song. When we sang the Hallelujah from Shrek, and when we hit the opening lines. When a father sitting in the fifth row put his arm around his little daughter and held her.
That, my friends, was my highlight.
