making musical sounds with the voice
I enjoyed last night. I practiced in a small ensemble of people. The song choice was good. The person leading the group commented on how I have a great voice. We are set to sing in front of everyone this Sunday morning. Am I nervous? Well actually not. If I was to be singing alone, then I would be nervous, but since it is a group, everything seems fine. I was in choir and we would perform before large crowds. It was fun. I was even in two musical productions (one of which I had a solo part). I do enjoy singing. I think that everyone has the potential to be a great singer. The problem lies is that people tend to lack confidence in themselves or the person may try to sing out of their range and then just give up in frustration. The key is to keep going and find out what works for you.

frosting over the ground
I walked outside just before the sun rose and saw that the sky was mostly cloudy. I could see the moon and a few other stars (their constellations I could not make out). I surveyed the surrounding, taking in the frost covered ground and windshields. I quickly went back inside to escape the cold. A few minutes later, wearing my coat, I walked to the bus stop. The sky had lightened a bit since the sun was about to appear from over the horizon. There were clouds about, but not much. No worries of snow flurries or freezing rain in my humble opinion. The landscape sparkled with frost. Small cloud formations appeared around my face as I hurried to catch the bus. My keys in my pocket and my headphones plugged into my ears to listen to music. And moments after I stepped to the bus stop, I could see the Highland bus turning left onto Lascassas Pike. I welcomed the warmth as I stepped onto the bus. After placing a dollar bill into the fare box, I took my seat and watched the frost covered grass pass by.

brightness on the first
last night, i was so excited about seeing Orion rising in the east, that I grabbed my cup of herbal tea and looked at the stars outside. It was cold and I was really tired. I do not even remember reading a bit of Jean-Paul Sartre's
Nausea before passing out into a deep sleep. I was really tired.
Also last night, Michael and I went to the pet store called Fins and Fur. The cashier guy was very helpful as he gave us helpful tips on feeding our cats. He even gave us free cat food for our cats to sample. I cannot even remember the names of the food, but they were the wet food variety. The cats really enjoyed the food. They ate all of it and this morning, I began feeding them the new food. They loved it. I will have to get the name of the foods because I had not heard of them prior to our visit to Fins and Fur. You will not find these at your local Walmart (spearking of which)...I was at Walmart the other day and I noticed that they have stopped selling tofu. And why? It does not matter, I buy my groceries at Kroger.
This morning is great. The weather was cold and as I walked to work, I noticed the "sea" of frost on top of the grass. I should have worn a hat. Perhaps it will be warm enough for me to eat lunch outside. I eating couscous with tofu. Yum!
