Today in orchestra we played in the dark. Literally, all the lights went out. We were in the back Studio B in the Shakespeare Center, the one with the walls painted black, no windows, warm, with a door that, when it closes, lets in no, absolutely no light. We played in the dark for about 20 minutes. It was so much fun (for me at least, I like the dark better than the light) and we all played really well considering. I am one of the few who has her music memorised (yes, that does imply that none of the boys have memorised music) Asia (my [atheist] stand-partner) and I played nearly perfectly. Miss T was very profusely complimentary and had us play up front, without a stand (an awkward situation because, short as I am, she is shorter... by a lot). We had a ridiculous amount of fun. The Cellists must not have for Kendrick, first cellist and super-duper sarcastic (to an annoying, peevish level) and astoundingly tall asian kid (younger than me, surprise surprise), was absent. He essentially carries the entire cello section, sad really. I'm gonna stop rambling now...
Love you guys!
