Famous Actors are complicated....

Ok. So I am a huge fan of the british actor David Tennant. HUGE fan. Not just because of his big brown eyes or corny grin, but because he is an incredible actor. Now, most people just know him because he was the 10th Doctor in Doctor Who, but that's not the only thing he's been in.(even though he is 1. My favorite Doctor, and 2. It's my favorite role he's played!) No, he potrayed the part of Hamlet opposite Patrick Stewart on the West End, and he's been in Romeo and Juliet on the West End, AND he had a small part in Harry Potter! HARRY POTTER! Anyways, I'm debating with myself on whether I should write him a letter. I've always been curious as to whether ''big celebrities'' actually reply to the thousands of letters they recieve. Not only would I like to do this as an expierament, but I would like to ask him a few things. Not the whole "I'M SUCH A BIG FAN I LOVE YOU!!!" blah blah blah thing. UGH. That would get. on. my. nerves. Seriously. What do people think about while writing these letters? Personally, I'm curious about how he gets into/develops a character, what ignited his passion for acting, and I'd love to tell him how much of an inspiration he is to me. Because he really is. I mean, I've been watching his acting for the past five years, his use of expression and the deliverence of his lines really evokes emotions out of me more than any actor I've ever watched. That's the sign of a really good actor, and for that I truly admire him.

I might write him a letter, I might not. Getting a reply from him would be really cool, and who knows? Maybe I'll meet him someday. haha or we might be on stage together in the(very) far future! Highly unlikely. But a girl can dream, right? Opera singer sings while British actor well....acts! I like the sounds of that. Our names would look really great next together in lights:

David Tennant and Katie Jo O'Neal Starring In! haha ;)

Sundays, and my love for Chuch Choir!

Sundays are great. Sundays are the only day that I will happily wake up at 6:45 and dress up for an 8:00 practice and an 8:30 service. Seriously.
And why do I love doing this so? Because for some crazy reason, singing about God and praising God through music is so much powerful than singing the same classical piece every day. But here's my selfish singer diva take on it. Everyone has a basic knowledge of music education, and for the most part, everyone has a great voice. And we're all adults here, no drama required! It's so refreshing to get to work a group of professional people. And the songs! I love singing the choir special every Sunday!(especially there's usually an amazingly high note that I get to sing.) I've never found it so easy to really get into a song than I have with the choir specials. Which brings me to the important reason of why I love choir. I love praising God! I love every Wednesday, when we're starting our practice, our amazing choir director, Michael Turner, will do a devotion. Last week it was this really long crazy passage about how the priests and townspeople would praise God(trust me, it was very in deph.) But then Michael looked up from reading and looked at us saying, "You know what the meaning of this is? God likes music, and he likes us praising him with music!" It brought tears to my eyes(nothing dramatic) when he said that our voice is the only instrument completely untouched by human hands! As in, those people with really amazing voices, God gave you that voice, he made it especially for you! That's what made me feel special, that God would honor me with the ability to sing, and really well too! So that's kind of my message for the week. haha :)
And now that's where I'm going this morning, church, which I really need to get a move on!

UGH. Good thing we're staying at the resort for the rest of the week(my family and I), so I don't have to ride home on the bus with everyone else! So yes, I am excited about getting to stay in the Magic Kingdom until 3 a.m because of the Magic hours.....wouldn't you be too? :)

Satuday-the best day of the week.

I love Saturdays. I love waking up with feeling of, well, having nothing to do! Most Saturdays I am busy, but this Saturday? Nothing. The feeling is Glorious! Though the more I think about it, the more I'm realizing all the things I should be doing. My Issac Newton paper, practicing my Bach piece for saxophone, and cleaning my room wouldn't be so bad either. But you know? That can wait. It's not even noon yet for crying out loud! Why do we always feel the need to be rushing about like a chicken with our head cut off? I'd love to know, seeing as the majority of my week consists of the running about. But that's a whole other story.

I can't believe it's only 18 days until my family and I go to DisneyWorld! I'm excited, but a bit bummed. Maybe I'm just spoiled, but I have a thing about big trips where you have a schedule. I hate the fact that we have to be in one park at a certain time, then go to a certain restraunt at a certain time, they be back at our hotel at a certain time, with a curfew! It's very binding if you ask me. Though I am very grateful for the fact that my parents and brother are going, allowing me to keep away from the rest of the choir kids. I am very selfish, I can't stand being in a big group because I normally have no say in where we go, or what we do. But with my family, we know what we want to do, and we have the amount of respect for each other so that we all end up having a good time.

I guess I completely forgot to mention Why we're going to Disney in the first place! My choir(the advanced choir, though trust me, it doesn't feel advanced), was invited to sing in their "Magic Music Days" program. As in, we're going to have a 25 minute program on a stage we'll only see once: the time of the performence. Plus, we're technically not even in the park! We're on their big boardwalk, which consists of shops and restraunts only. Fun. Though the more I think about it, the more I get excited. We're performing at Disney World! THE Disney World! Supposedly we'll have a big audience, that is I'm crossing our fingers that it will consist of more that the girl's choir and the band. UGH. Oh well, no sense worrying about what you can't change! :)

I guess that's all for now, this whole blog thing is kind of nice, I can talk for as long as I wish and no one will interupt me, or tell me to shup up. Which is what happens on a daily basis, especially when I try to help someone with their rythm or pitch skills! haha

Oh BTW I have a thing for photography, so I'm going to try and attach a pretty picture with every entry. That is all :)
