Dear people's faces I shall call my diary,
Some of you must be really mad at me for not posting anything all last week and some of you must think I'm a slacker. But trust me, I was screaming my head off (in my brain which kind of hurts) because I couldn't go onto the computer. The computer wasn't acting right and the wi-fi was just not working. It really sucked!! I was just so sad and really hoping that H would post something but, sadly, she did not. But that is okay. Because I'm back!
So today was a pretty awesome day! At my school, we watched this hand bells performance. That was...interesting and definitely not boring. I mean, it was pretty and everything but I wasn't very interesting. It was just...unwatchable. I am serious. I felt bad for the 7th graders having to play. And the teacher was no better. She wouldn't stop talking. She is nice but I wish she would have just told us the title and not told us about how great hand bells was, and they have to play two hand bells in the same hand. Not one but TWO! Two. How incredible. But I'm not kidding. I kept whispering to my friend, Shaggy (he has got a lot of hair on his head), that I was going to fall asleep. Please don't think I'm rude. It just wasn't rememberable.
After the hand bells performance, this collage dude named Travis. He plays the electric violin! How awesome is that? He played "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz, "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay, and one of his own songs but I really can't remember the name of it. But, this guy should really advertise the musical arts to young people. Watching him play makes me really want to learn how to play. Right now I'm in the process of playing the acoustic guitar and it is coming along pretty well. But, if I could, I would totally drop it and start the violin. But I just love playing the guitar a lot. It is super fun, and you can do some much with just a few chords!
But back to Travis. I was so amazed when I saw he didn't have any music sheets or anything. He just closed his eyes and played. It was beautiful and all the students and myself were not falling asleep. In fact, some kids got up and clapped and yelled for Travis. And Shaggy wouldn't stop saying he was going to buy his album. I don't know what his last name was but if you find it, please tell me because I want to buy his album too!
Speaking of buying stuff, I made a poll a week ago about making products for the blog. A lot of you said that we should totally sell stuff like shirts, pins, bags and stuff like that. Now, I also say that someone said we should just not do it. I kinda want to know what that person was thinking. Not that I'm made. I'm just sad a bit :( Do you see this person! You made me sad!! But I'm still going to make stuff anyway to raise money for the blog!
Oh, and now, Shaggy is our advertising manager. Fancy word for, he is going to help with the ideas. I'm so happy today!
