HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY AWESOME SISTER BRITT!!!!!!! YOU"RE THE BEST SISTER IN THE WHOLE WORLD

~B~

Feeling Prepared is BAD!

Sorry I am such a lag and I never post.... its just, I"M SO BUSY!

I have been writing essays, tests, and studying...... the worst.
Yes, this semester is coming to an end which means,
1) a feeling of wanting to get everything over with
2)  longing for having fun and going to Christmas celebrations,,... but, you can't
3) several concerts to sing in :D
4) feeling sleepy all the time
5) eating all the time (only junk)
6) and soo.... much.,... more... funnnnnn... stuffs!

Tomorrow is my last music history test before the exam and of course I left studying for the night before the test. Typical Breanna eh?
Wanna know what the weird thing is?
...Even if you don't, I'm going to tell you any way.. .
I literally feel prepared
Wanna know what the even weirder thing is?
.... still going to tell you...
this makes me nervous.
I have never felt prepared and I passed so I wonder if this will have the opposite effect. Lets hope not. But, I should get back to studying!



I'll post more often for all of my hardcore fans. HA!

The Approximate Organization of My Life Right Now

I might as well be heaving, out of breath right now, because my life's business level just decided to take itself up about 7 or so notches. But, I'm happy to say that I can see a light appearing at the end of the tunnel! Classes end in less than two weeks, and exams are done (for me) in only three weeks!

But, because this is only a short post, and it probably should be funny, I thought I'd just let you all know that I organized the bookmarks on my internet page. I had about 20, and I could never remember how far to look down the list, so I organized them!!! I organized them into four folders (pssssst: this is the funny part): School Stuff; Fun Things; Sensible Things; and Recipes.

Recipes.

Isn't that funny? I mean, why "Recipes," right?

Anyways, I am glad that you will now have a good day, since you read such a funny post. I have to go, and write an essay or two. I will try and stay away from the Fun Things folder, and get stuff done!

Cheerio!
k bye. ;)

WOW! SNOW!

yes.... as you probably already know... it is currently snowing like crazy. Some might say, "its beginning to look a lot like Christmas." tee hee.
Today it took me 2 hours to drive home.. that's right TWO HOURS, and the worst part is that I almost spun out on the highway. sigh.. Although, there are many good things about snow.

1) It makes great snow people. (snow man!) Yes, it may be obvious but some people might now know.
2) Santa lives in snow. :D
3) it would be impossible to have a snow ball fight without snow.. der
4) its fun for males to pee in.. (like in the movies) they can draw pictures. How cool!
5) its awesome to eat. But, Make sure you watch out for all of that pee.

After all, I can truly say i am so thankful for all of the wonderful people in my life.
NEVER, EVER take life for granted and the people that make your life fun :D
Love you all,
~B~

Time just keeps on ticking, ticking, ticking...

My day to was crazy. From 9:00 to 3:30 the biggest break I had was fifteen minutes between choir and opera workshop, and lunch was two granola bars... sigh. WHY, UNIVERSITY?!! WHY?!!

The good news is that it's now 4:01 pm, and I have now eaten a full supper, and I am sitting in a quaint, comfy lounge/cafe at school, and Josh Groban and Michael Buble are singing me Christmas songs. Someone is hanging Christmas lights around the perimeter of the room, and Christmas trees are being erected, and best of all, I don't have to be anywhere else until 4:30!

But best, BEST of all, today in choir we sang the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's Messiah - and friends, when I say "we", I mean "we" as in 80+ women and men. It's so epic, and I just get shivers all over me when I sing it. Remember last Christmas season when it became popular to organize flash mobs of the Hallelujah Chorus? I would always watch those Youtube videos, and long that I could be there, experiencing that beauty. Well, I guess a choir practice isn't EXACTLY a flash mob, but nevertheless, the beauty of Handel's Messiah is in every way present there.


Anyways, it's now 4:13, and I should probably do something productive (like sleep) before my next practice at 4:30.
But before you finish reading this, take a little time to indulge your ears in this wonderful phenomenon:

Adios, friends!

There's more to telemarketers than we think, apparently.

Now, usually, as per tradition, Breanna and I blog about stuff that has to do with us. Not because we're egocentric or narcissistic, but simply because it's not called "Breanna and Catherine's Extravaganza" because it's about our siblings. Seriously.


HOWEVER: There are times when something bizarre and hilarious happens to a sibling, and so we HAVE to write about it. This is one of those times.


My sister Nicole was finishing an essay tonight, but as she was studying, she was interrupted by a phone call. This is the true, honest conversation.

Nicole: Hello?

Telemarketer: Hi, is Mr. R. there?

Nicole: Sorry, he's out right now. Can I take a message?

Telemarketer: That's okay, I'll just call another time... actually, you sound like a nice person, I'll just talk to you! I'm from The Winnipeg... or, sorry, how are you doing today?

Nicole: Good, thanks.

Telemarketer: You sound ecstatically excited.

Nicole: (Trying to hint that she doesn't want to talk) Yeah... I'm writing essays right now, so I'm kind of in a focused mood.

Telemarketer: Oh... Well... I'll let you get back to your essay writing, I'll just call back another time. Actually, what's your essay topic? (Yes, he really said this!)

Nicole: Uh... The use of different psychotherapy approaches for older adults with depression...?

Telemarketer: Oh. Well, I don't know anything about that topic.

Nicole: Oh.

Telemarketer: It's too bad it wasn't a topic I knew something about, or else I could help you!

Nicole: Uh, yeah... that would have been great!....?...

Telemarketer: Yeah, cause imagine if you had a telemarketer phone, and he helped you on your essay! Wouldn't that be crazy?

Nicole: Um, yeah... haha

Telemarketer: Well, anyways, sorry I didn't know anything about your topic!

Nicole: That's okay.

Telemarketer: Well, have fun writing your essay! Have a good night!

Nicole: Thanks, you too!

Nicole hangs up.

997...998...999

What can we say?
We're almost at 1000? 1000 what, you say?
Perhaps it is 1000 moments of happiness...
Perhaps it is 1000 laughs that have spilled out of your mouths... because we're so funny...
Perhaps it is 1000 shrugs of confusion over the random thoughts, or jokes (aka: Mama Yo)...
Perhaps it is the 1000  words you DIDN'T write on your essay, because you were reading this blog...
Or perhaps, it is 1000 views you have bestowed on us... As a matter of fact, this is the most likely of all the "perhaps"!

Thanks for the views, guys!
Love,
Breanna and Catherine

Breanna`s Rules For Being a Good Friend.

1) always keep in touch, don't ignore anything your friend says.
2) never share personal conversations with other people
3) don`t take any friend for granted. You never know how much people mean to you until they`re gone.
4) give a friend space when they are angry or upset.
5) watch you're friends emotions closely. they could be hiding something important. (or they might want you to notice they're emotions)


seriously take these rules to heart. they'll work.

The One About Love

Today I took a WHOLE day off studying... and I loved it!
It was a good day to love something, because today was a day that was a lot about love:
   It was about love because it was Remembrance Day, in which I remembered those who loved us enough to leave us...
   It was about love because I had to work, as a cashier, and talk to about 200 people, and I didn't feel like it. I had to love them anyway...
   It was about love because I watched a rom-com (Monte Carlo - SO good) with my friend. It had lovely love stories in it...
   It was about love because I sat with that friend, and talked honestly about life, and love.
Love isn't love unless it's pure and giving.Today was about that kind of  love because I remembered that love, gave that love, watched that love, and experienced that love. All in pure, wonderful ways.

This is the one about love, because love is about one - the one who's not you. I learned a little bit more today about how to love that one. Whoever that "one" is.

The Most Amazing Theme Song Anyone Has Ever Written

Breanna and Catherine here.

We would like to have a theme song for our blog, but we don't feel like writing anything other than lyrics, so our question is this: if we were to write the lyrics to a song, but not write the music, would you take those lyrics, and write your own music to it? And if you did, would you post it as a video on Youtube for us?

Here's the first two lines, and when you comment, we'll add more lyrics!

We wish we were good at poems, but instead we only rhyme.

We've tried to make beautiful music, but consistently run out of time!

To be continued. . . . . 

k bye.

Musicals and Gorgeous Dresses and Boyfriends... and Symphonies

That pretty sums up our evening.
So Breanna is so awesome because she makes up fake(/real?) boyfriends.
So Catherine is so awesome because she likes to take artistic pictures of chandeliers and people.
So Marissa is so awesome because she pretends to be a chicken (as in, the bird). This obviously makes her the bestest person ever, and so that's why SHE IS BLOGGING WITH US TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Topic 1: Musicals
Tonight Catherine, Marissa and Breanna sat on Catherine's bed in her messy room and sang musicals as loud as we could and to our hearts' content. We want to be musicals stars right now. Especially Marissa. And she will be.

Topic 2: Gorgeous Dresses
Marissa bought a new dress today. Then she and Breanna attempted to do Catherine's hair, and it didn't work because her hair was too clean! (???) Then, at the symphony concert, there was a gorgeous black dress on a performer, and well, it was gorgeous. So yeah.

Topic 3: Boyfriends
Hmmm. Well, Breanna has 3 fake ones.

Topic 4: Symphony
Tonight we saw the WSO play the music of Stephen Sondheim, and guest performer was.... Lou Cariou, who was the first Sweeney Todd ever! It was fantastic, and it was also where Breanna saw her third fake boyfriend. So yeah.

Anyways. We liked our night, and we like you. K bye.

Nobody likes you, Breanna

This is what Breanna's friend who is practically her sister, Marissa, told her. I think there are many reason to like Breanna:

1) She occasionally imitates Dory imitating a whale.

2) She likes walking around in bare feet, holding coffee, and saying, "I want to be a classy person."

3) She said she's too white to sing in Latin. Which does not make any sense. At all.

4) She uses dishtowels as shawls

5) Her motto is, "My name is Breanna, and I don't care."

6) She nurtures crushes on symphony players.

7) She once said, "I feel like a man. I should try to be more feminine."

8) She dressed as a turtle for Halloween, and couldn't get the costume off.

9) She pretends she is an advanced pointe ballet dancer.

10) She says that she thinks she is Santa.

There are innumerable other things that I could say about Breanna. But I will leave it at 10. 

Catherine

***UPDATE: Marissa would like to clarify that she actually does like Breanna...probably because she read this blog.

Breanna is sitting beside Catherine and Marissa! :D

this (^) is what im seeing today. Trying to focus in music history in incredibly impossible when you were just sleeping an hour before.. I literallly fell asleep in class. (for the first time since nap time in kindergarten). Music students are always tired because we work so hard. (not saying we work harder than anyone else but, we do a different kind of work. It's all about stamina). Every day in history I watch the attendence slowly decrease. At least I'm here I guess.

It's humpday today! the week is half over :D .
I'll check in soon,
