TALENT SHOW #1

So, talent show tonight for the whole student body...

I'm in two songs with two different people. "Un Viaje Largo" by Marcella Gandara con Keila & "No Hay Dios" con Leti (the tone-deaf lady who speaks some English). I'm looking forward to the one with Keila, especially because her dad will be accompanying us on guitar; I just have to COMPLETELY memorize the lyrics in just a few hours. The one with Leti, um, it's just to be nice. It's going to be terrible, no matter what. I might try and get someone to accompany us on guitar for that one as well (I tried, but can't transition chords fast enough), but it will still be bad since she can't match pitch; but it's to glorify God, right? Right.

I'll let you know how the talent show goes (hence the title "Talent Show #1"... oh wait, I'm sorry... "TALENT SHOW #1"... excuse me).

Today I realized how, this is going to sound funny, mature babies really are. More than we assume--they're quite the manipulative little things; they'll put on the most dramatic fit to get what they want if they think it will work.
Little Abril, 9, 10 months old: if you lay her down, she'll cry and scream, so I thought I'd do an experiment a few times. I lay her down and go and hide while she's screaming and crying and trying to sit herself up; once she's up and sees I'm not around, she stops crying and goes on a Lynda-Hunt... once she sees me, her tantrum resurrects. How manipulative!

Anyway, that's all. Oh, and I'm starting a study of Acts with my aunt--kind of excited to follow the study guides--new view.

Okay, I'm late to practice with Leti. Adios!
