Ellie has her big singing exam this evening which she's been rehersing (sp?) for for weeks, fingers crossed!


IS she taking Voice Lessons.. that kind of exam ???
Where they not only count missed words.. but on pitch, staying to the written notes, presentation, ??
Singing for a crowd of people and classmates or just those "judging"

THat gave me nightmares in college.:scared1:

Need some more "chocolate" now... I'm going back to read your post :rotfl2:
And "where did you all get me from... Virginia... by way of Kentucky...:goodvibes :goodvibes

BTW... Kentucky Derby is ALMOST HERE !!!:banana:
 
Can anyone see my total siggy? All i see is my pictures, and the top line. minnie, mickey, the kids... I can't see any dates. The last line should say off site. Please let me know :flower3: jen
The words are cut off when I look at it.

Thought it was about time I did a little trippie of what I did on Sunday!
When we'd finished and all the chocolate had set we bagged them up, here's a horrid photo of me!

We had lots of fun but it definitely is harder than you think it is, I'm glad we did it (it was a present from our Dad) but don't think I'd do it again. I will definitelty have a go at making caramel though as Rose made it look so easy!
I think it is a great pic and it looked like a lot of fun. I would have eaten myself into a coma.

Raining :rotfl2: Do you say going for a piss when you're going to the toilet?
It is used in our house as slang for being mad. Nana gets the look when she uses it around her brother. It is considered a big people word.
 
Jo: Awesome pictures!! The London Eye looks too cool... and I think the chocolates you made look fabulous!:thumbsup2
 
OK Fockers. I started a new pre-trippie. I'm reading about your festivities...which I'm still sorry I don't get to be a part of...so you betta read about mine! The links in my siggy!

She just passed her first voice for life medallion and this is called a Deanery Award, (official award from the Diocesan) she has to sing several hyms, sight read and answer music theory and Church facts questions!

Me too if I hadn't had dessert :rotfl2:

Oh yeah we use it like that too, eg I'm P'd off!

Jo: Awesome pictures!! The London Eye looks too cool... and I think the chocolates you made look fabulous!:thumbsup2

OMG. I'm so happy.
OMG Mel :yay: Will you be there for the meal????

I just don't know if I can bring myself to saying it or that "c" word. However, I have no problem saying fanny. :rotfl2:
Oh K you mustn't say the "c" word :eek: And don't say fanny in England :rotfl2:




Well I've picked Ellie and the other 3 girls up and it all seemed to go well, they'll know the results early May!

I'm coming. I don't get to join festivities either. I think you should do SWW again - say the first week in June.

I just wanted to stop and say Hi, I am new to this board, by referral of another member... Hope to keep in touch with ya'll.

:welcome: Who referred you?

Jo - tell Ellie I said to break and arm and a leg (Just had to do a one up).
Jo - your chocolate does look better than Em's. How's that for sibling rivalry?

Mel - congrats on booking your trip. I too am so jealous. I want to be there with everyone. Maybe I can call in like someone else we know. Ohh, I know. I will send some of you a picture of myself. When you take your group shot, you can all hold my picture up, so it will be like I'm there.
 
You are too cute!

So what shall we call you


Most people call me Katt.. and have called me worse :eek: :rotfl2:

Right now the gang seems to be proccupied with a "meet" they have planned in August. Some of us here are able to go in August and those that can.. have a small get together.

We Usually go in June... went in August last year but I did not know these great ladies then.( I'm giving out Points ladies... from my personal stash) Where is my welcoming commitee I saw Jo and V.. guess they get ALL MY POINTS...( and Karma.. ;) )
Any way... Things should pick up around here in a little while.Yesterday for some reason we were REALLY Chatty.. maybe it was our New Thread.

Do you have a trip planned ??
 
Jo-- Looks like a great, gooey , messy , yummy time! Adn you do NOT look bad in the pics!!! We are all too darn hard on ourselves...I can't wait till we take group pics in August how we will all complain about how we look! LOL

I am such a huge dork when I saw Parliament and Big Ben I immediately thought "Harry Potter!!". I know I should stop reading so much and get out more...

Good luck to Ellie too! I've been singing since I was a kid, but never really did anything with it. Now it's def too late.



Just my 2 cents on the new DDP. I mainly do it so that food is paid for before we get there, it helps me budget. I still think its a good deal tho, but it isn't for everyone. The tipping was a lot less painful that I thought, too.


HI :wave2: acejka...What should we call you??

YAY MEL! Thats so awesome! I can't wait to meet you!!!

Sorry feeling colorful today. I love Tuesdays...peaceful..no DH in the house...calm...

I get to get ignored for a few days because he got a new video game (grand Theft Auto 4) yesterday, that I waited in the rain for an hour at the store for him for. (did that sentence make sense??)SO I am going to be on the pc all day..which is both good and bad.

have a happy Tuesday all!!!

Uh Oh... Kat's going shopping again !!:goodvibes :lmao:

But You are entitled to it ...waiting in the rain .... EBAY... here she comes....

Sounds a lot like College "Jury's" YOu have a bunch of songs prepared.. they PICK what THEY want to hear.. then ask you to try and sight read something.. and it is ALWAYS in a foreign language... French, German, or Italian.

They ask you some questions.. and you get your grade. That sounds like a lot of pressure on a Kid. Is this extra curricular ?? Or something she has to do ??

:rotfl2: Oh and thanks for saying mine were better :rotfl2:

Thanks Kat and I think we'll all be trying to hide behind each other :rotfl2:

Did I tell you that David knows (he teaches him golf) the Queens Waterman who is in charge of the Thames and he had to agree to all the Harry Potter stuff and was on set the whole time!!!!

What a wonderful wife you are :goodvibes

It's extra curricular, she's in the Church choir and absolutely loves singing. She also learns very fast!
