Mixed Chorus Tour

I have had the privilege of going on Mixed Chorus Tour for the last two years of my life at Fountainview, and I must say that it is hands down the best tour of the year. I had so much fun keeping Aeropostale open with a bunch of friends, drinking Jamba Juice, and listening to music my first year, and this last year, we had a lot of fun at Matthew's really nice church and then at Camp Hope. We also performed an outdoor concert, and went to visit a US Naval base (The plane we saw was really awesome!) The pictures are from this years' Mixed Chorus Tour: September 14-18, 2011

Sam is a proud American :)

We practiced with Doctor Blaylock for many, many hours.

The tenors were very excited to raise their hands when asked who the tenors were :)

James had just gotten a new Macbook Air, and was looking at a picture of his brother, Ethan :)

Someone hijacked my camera for a while to take this picture of me...

Outside of the North Cascades SDA Church.

These next ones are from Camp Hope, where we did one of our first concerts.

Canon vs. Nikon

So I decided to post about Canons and Nikons. Personally, I think they are both really good cameras, and the quality of pictures is about the same. I like Canons because my sister and I both have them, as do most of my friends, and we can share lenses. But even though I use Canons, I still appreciate the pictures from people that use Nikons. And it's not the camera that makes the difference, it's the photographer. 

International Supper 2011

We had our annual International Supper a few weeks ago! The food was delicious, the booths were well-decorated, and we had the biggest turnout yet - 300 people! They were all blessed by the music that the orchestra and choir played afterwards, and it was even written about in the Lytton Express, a local newspaper. The students and staff were happy to see all of their hard work pay off.

Here are some snapshots:

The Canadians had some delicious pie :)

These apple fritters at the Southern USA booth were really, really good :)

The remains of the Canadian booth.

This is my friend Sam playing the violin afterwards (believe it or not, she actually doesn't play violin - she is the first clarinet and is very, very much an essential part of our woodwind section :)
