All I want to do is sing today

So, what ever happened to separation of church and state?

These posters are all over the school. Now, I wouldn't have a problem with them, but bible verses? Come on. I thought we weren't supposed to condone religions? Though they do have new posters up now that just have peace signs and minimal text, no "god" included. Hopefully those shown above are removed soon, or I might have to have a talk with an authority about it.

I may have worked out some rides to show choir rehearsals, so now all I have to do is audition. I think I may have figured out a song, too. I was stuck between Gravity - Sara Bareilles, Whenever, Wherever - Shakira, and She Wolf - Shakira. I looked at What the Hell - Avril Lavigne for a while, but Whenever, Wherever was the winner. The reason being that it gives more room for freedom of style. What the Hell does as well, with lots of high notes (my range) but Whenever, Wherever really speaks to me, and I believe that's important.
My only issue is that I can't dance unless it's choreographed for me, and even then it takes me longer to learn. Whenever I have to memorize something like that, it takes me longer than most people. Take colorguard, for example. To memorize routines for that, I wrote down everything plenty of times, over and over again. I took sheets of paper with the routine on it and worked on it for hours at home. I can see myself needing to do that with show choir, which is okay, because at least I put in the time and effort for the things I do. I am always working at improving my performance life.

Lately in Lineage 2 I've been super lazy, but have gotten plenty of quest guides done. I am almost level 82, and would be, but Ryan likes attention. Sometime tonight I will be working on a new sim (out of boredom, of course).

Happy Chriskwanzikkule! That's christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, and Yule put together. I celebrate Yule. If you Google it, you'll see that christmas actually stole a lot of tradition from the traditional Pagan Yule. Yule log, decorated tree. Funny, how Paganism was the first religion and a majority of the US doesn't know what it is. Even better, some ridicule it. You're ridiculing your ancestors.
