Orchestra, Dinner, Orthodontist and a some other things

Orchestra

SO, on Wednesday, we had a LOOOOONG orchestra test about composers. We've been doing some presentations in our class about the composers; we've been taking notes for the open-note test. Besides it being quite difficult--
        with 24 note-pages about 24 composers;
        about 24 fill-in-the-blank questions;
        about 24 true-or-false questions;
        about 24 multiple choice questions;
        24 matching questions on what-country-are-they-from;
        24 matching questions on who-composed-what-piece (by far the hardest);
        24 matching questions on born-died years;
        1 paragraph and 1 essay--
we only had 1 hour and 35 minutes to finish it!

I took up the whole time, but Hannah went a few minutes after class. ANYWAYS, we haven't actually PLAYED in  about a week. And our concert coming up is called the Pops Concert, where we play music composed in the last 10-or-so years, usually from movies. We all voted on our top 15 songs, and then, from that selection, the top 5.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
the song that we'll be playing with the Advanced Orchestra (a total of about 85 kiddos!)
IS:


Lord of the Rings!!!!!!!!!!!! 
:D :D :D :D :D 

We are going to sound so cool! It is called "Highlights from LORD OF THE RINGS, the Fellowship of the Ring" so it basically is a medley of songs like: Many Meetings http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y80ofCkPbdE , The Ring Goes South http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHAP7NvBOU0, and then some reprises of those and one other song, I can't remember it now.
:D Yays!

Orthodontist

For 6 years, we've been going the Orthodontist. 

For all those year's, we've never won the monthly prize for brushing you teeth well, keeping care of your appliance, etc. 

Until now.
:D :D :D :D
Hannah won the April drawing!!!!!!
AND IT'S THE ICE CREAM BASKET!
They have different themes, like superbowl, movie, picnic, etc!
She'll get gift certificates to places like Mallards and Dairy Queen!
YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!!!

Dinner

Tonight was our parents' 16th anniversary! We went to the New York Pizza & Bar! It was really fun; we had pizza and rootbeer! It was a really good place. 

Random

Today at track we ran a pretty short ways; we'll have a meet on Wednesday next week, so its a while until we have to compete.

Tomorrow, since we're not competing in the varsity meet, we are working tomorrow at the Mushroom Compost sale, where the JV team gets a lot of money from this. :/ Not so excited about shoveling smelly compost into bags. 

THE END. :)
