Vote fer Lexi!

Hey there.

Guess what? Well, you can't really guess I suppose, so I'll just tell you. The meeting for the candidates interested in becoming a grade representative was held today! I went, because I wanna run for my grade nine rep. The meeting was kind of long, but I got through it. I learned that being a rep would be a lot more work than I previously thought. I'm still going to run though, so I'd better work on my speech.

I was GOING to explain all the work behind running for student government, but I'd rather talk about a current project of mine. I'm trying to learn Clint Massel's Requiem for a Dream on piano, and it's proving very difficult. I want to learn mainly because I love the piece, but also because my boyfriend loves it too. I want to play it for him next time he visits as a surprise... he doesn't know yet that I'm learning it. It really is a beautiful piece, and there are several versions of it... one that was used for a trailer of The Lord of the Rings: The Twin Towers. It is truly epic.

Yours truly,

- Lexi

Music: Requiem for a Dream (piano) - Clint Massel (link'd.)
