its a Pittance of time

   Lets discuss an important matter, that i find to be very important to me. As it is november remembrance day is quickly approaching. This is a day honoured in canada, as a day when we take the time to remember all of the soldiers who fought in the war.



   Recently there has been a fascination with 11:11: 11, 11:11. November 11, 2011, 11:11:11 AM. The specific pittance of time that we have set aside to honour those fallen, or those who have fought for our freedom. But instead many have become caught up with the ida of "make a wish day" WTF! I apologize for getting so worked up about this but its true. As a person with a very close friend of mine in the Canadian military i find it extremely disrespectful that we would use a day like remembrance day to "make a wish". I find this almost as disrespectful as some find Justin Beiber's new hit "Mistletoe" Sac-religious. Im not as offended as i am confused as to some priorities. To me it seems more important to be grateful for our freedom rather than making a wish. Wishing in itself is Sac-religous. Here we are saying "I wish, i wish, i wish." idolizing some kind of higher power asking for things for ourselves when we could just as easily be saying "Heavenly father, Holy Lord, dear Jesus" for things that we can help others with. So no. i will not attend your Facebook event. i will not "hashtag on twitter" and i will most defiantly will not pause my day for such a meaningless moment. Instead,  Lets make a deal to throw our wishes away for that 60 seconds of november 11, and instead pay our respects for those who deserve it.



In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead: Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved: and now we lie
In Flanders fields!
Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you, from failing hands, we throw
The torch: be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields
-LCol John McCrae

Oh to be a Bass

As i sat today in choir, idealized just how awesome it would be to be a bass. As they sand their low D below the staff, i was truly mesmerized by the thickness of their vocal chords. and indeed my lord DID deliver Daniel.  (<--- i swear this was not meant to be a sexual innuendo...) What would life be like to be a bass? lets make a list! The following are 10 reasons as to why basses are so Bau5.

Basses are bau5. who else can sing soprano as well as bass, BESIDES the bases.... right NO ONE!

Basses have the ability to sing so low that it sounds as if one is belching and its still Bau5. why is it so bau5    to sound as if one is burping while actually singing? because James Earl Jones does it. thats why.


Its a simple fact that guys with extremely low voices get to be on super badass commercials, as well as movie trailers, also low voiced men get to play the awesome rolls in movies such as darth vader, or GOD!!

Basses by far have the greatest vibrato. Nuff said

As hard as a woman may try she will never achieve the same amounts of overtones in the sound. Why may this be? well simply because the lower the voice the more baller amounts of overtones.

WTV all the members of the opposite sex dig em'


 it is socially acceptable, and is almost required that all bases have a bad ass beard.

basses obtain the easiest baseline. although sometimes boring, basses get the opportunity to sustain their whole notes and mentally fall asleep. also making it acceptable to paint secondary eyeballs on your eyelids as to fool the choir director.



basses have the pleasure of having the word ass in their name.

basses can come say "come to me" in a James Brown type manner.

Music History. nuff said

Deitrich what can i say? life blows in this class. lets be honest how far in life am i going to get after i figure out who's chant belongs to whom?! by that point, ill be an old spinster knitting in my humble abode of room 1107 and singing along to gregorian chant from the 11th century. what an accomplishment hillary! you got a degree in music, and you are now 200 years old!!
   
     On another non related note is the gentleman in front of me aware that static cling has somehow attached a sock to the inside of the hood on the back of his sweater??? something tells me to let him know although i really do not want to embarrass the poor guy. plus the person sitting directly to my left may have already let him know... we'll just leave it at that. after all who knows it could be a new style that we are just not aware of. today when i go to work ill make sure that i have a sock stuck to the back of my pants. it'll be all the rage!! Think of it. can you picture it???? Don't get me wrong, this may be coming off as sarcastic, but I'm completely 100% serious. perhaps this article of clothing is sitting in that hood on purpose. OH NO! what is this??? i just received a note. with the words "pass to ****** .... Casually!" thats a breakthrough in socially acceptable behaviour. it seems completely normal to pass a note. casually. with the guy's name right on it. awkward. however POINT to whomever wrote it.

       you know what i love? people who laugh so hard that no sound comes out. this is currently happening to my left. and its fantastic. "why is it so funny??" she asks. well i can tell you. although we are trying to be subtle with this "note" its the farthest thing from it. Its about as subtle as a gun.

New Topic: NYAN CAT!
so theres is this new (well actually not so new) trend in the first floor poettker girls hallway. and that is NON-STOP NYAN!  i must say i am totally a fan of this trend and am currently nyaning as we speak. last time i checked i was at 2674 nayanoseconds. BALLER!!! however i wonder how nyan cat came to be. think about it  does a cat wearing toast flying and pooping rainbows come to be?? and more importantly, when does the toast turn into a pop tart? it has already been established that after 4000 nayanoseconds it starts flashing rainbows... which also leads to the actual colour of Gerald Gerbrandt's eyes. (or simply put: Gerlold.) after muh debate it has been decided that his eyes must be rainbows, sinces he's just so fantastic. don't believe me? here:

 Here we are. multiple pieces of proof, that Gerlolld Gerbrandts eyes are never ope enough to see the colour of them, so hence, RAINBOW!

most happy of fridays, it seems like a great day to get down today :D more thoughts later,
