Men in Tights

The last full concert of the year at my high school is coming up. Only one left! Unless you count Graduation, which is coming up too. I’m SO ready to graduate. I don’t have severe senioritous, though I think I have a mild case. This is my 5th year in high school, though; so I’m ready to move on.

That being said, I’m really excited for the last few weeks of school. I finally got my awful finance class passed (thats a long unrelated story so I won’t go into it), I’m almost ready to make my decision about which college I’ll attend, I’m finally getting benefits for being disabled, and I’m having fun with music. I just sang an arrangement of amazing grace in church with my brother and two of our friends. I’m also planning a joint senior recital with my cousin. That’s going really slowly… but it should still be good. In my school choirs, we’re singing “Somebody to Love” and “Men in Tights.”

Men in tights is going to be amazing. We’re almost done with the music- and by that I mean we’ve gone through it all, its just not solid- and we’re going to start choreography next week. Last year for this concert, the unauditioned men’s choir did “King of New York” from Newsies, and it was so much fun to watch. The advanced men’s choir started this year and men in tights should be similar to that. Needless to say, I’m very excited. I might have watched “Men in Tights” the movie to do research. Really I just used the song as an excuse. To be perfectly honest, though; the song is by far the best part.
