today's (ACHOO-SNIFFL-COUGH) post

as you can tell from the title, i have a cold. not a horrible one, just an average energy-drainer. so on Sunday, i had my first ECIYO practice, which was reaallly hard. not impossible, but almost. and as soon as that was done, i headed off to my first chamber orchestra rehearsal for my hs' Ragtime! production. that went better, but i'm looking forward to both groups' next practices. it was just, i was totally drained by the time the day was over. it felt like a day of ISYM. lol.

also, i'm learning how to play Brielle by Sky Sailing on my uke. Sky Sailing is a old project by Adam Young, along with Port Blue. Eventually, he dropped these and created Owl City, which is how we know him now. Brielle is one of these songs written in that time. in case you didn't know, i LOVE Owl City. alot. i'm trying to convince one of my friends to play the ukulele too, because the arrangement i'm inventing needs 2. and there's practically no uke covers of Brielle on youtube.

Owl City is one of my favorite bands. Adam is a Christian, and his cover of In Christ Alone is amazing. like, seriously phenomenal. really. especially if you hear his story behind it.
