Spring Sing {2012}

I'm playing serious "catch-up" with my posting...I should have gotten this up early in March.  Oops.  Anyways, with being a student at OC and a member of Gamma Rho, I found it to be an integral part of my spring semester to participate in a little thing called Spring Sing.  Okay, it's not really little.  It's actually a pretty big deal at OC.  And it's a pretty big deal to Gamma.  I had a lot of fun with it my sophomore year (we placed 2nd), so I figured I would give it another go around...despite the fact that my classes and clinical schedule were far more time consuming.  Let's just say, I'm glad to have survived the experience.  There were many LATE night practices (some of which were before and/or after a clinical day).  The combination of practice on a Sunday night (10p-12a), clinical Monday, late practice on Monday (yes, still 10p-12a), and clinical Tuesday actually put me in an arm sling for a week.  It was really fun.  Then there were a couple of lock-ins, which, fortunately, did not precede a clinical.  It's a lot of work.  I feel like as participants we put a lot of work in, so I can't imagine how much effort goes in when you're directing or in charge of costumes or something.  It might actually be crazy, but it's what we do!  Show week is my absolute favorite part.  By then, you know the moves and songs, and you're just ready to get out there.  Getting into costume and having an audience brings new energy and excitement.  It's a really great time!  Here's a video of Gamma's show, along with some of my pictures:

Maybe not my best look. Ha.

Alright, I still have some serious catching up to do!  I still have a book review, Mexico mission trip, Applesauce Bars, and end-of-the-school-year post....But it's going to have to wait until I get back from Honduras!  I hope you all have a great couple of weeks.  Then, I will get caught up...and hopefully start posting some tasty recipes and crafty things...
