Merry Christmas!

Last night I had a small x'mas home party with mam.

We just had light dishes,sweets things and some alcohol.

Very small and easy party, but it was enough! We talked and talked many things! It was so fan(*^ω^*)

HAPPY X'MAS TO YOU☆

Christmas!

I decoreted roomes for x'mas☆.
Because I did it alone, it tooke a few hours, but I'm satisefide my this work(*^ω^*)

X'mas 茶会☆

I went to the X'mas THAKAI.
"X'mas and tea ceremony？ How could that be(°o°)！" I thoght.

It held at a charch!We had two ceremonies, one was on a table and chairs,is called "Ryu-rei(立礼) and one was on TATAMI.

At the both OTHASEKI(お茶席), there were many goods came from around the world, for example a tea boll from England, a tea case from Tai-land.

But originally these are not for those way.(the tea boll is originally a caffeole boll!)
It's called MITATE(見立て)

It was a very interesting THAKAI！！
I want to go it next year again♪

MET

Yesterday, I watched MET(The N.Y Metropolitan Opera)'opera in a cinema.

Grate operas by MET are being televised at some theaters in Japan.
Now is "Aida".

3 main roles singer were so wonderful!
Infact, it was my first time to see all of that opera.

You can also see the back stage　when intermissions.
Many cameras are putted many places incrude the celling, dressing room, and wings.
That's very interesting!!


It's a good chance to see wonderful opera by good price(^^)♪♪

I like this tree the most in the Ueno park. This tree is infront of BUNKA-KAIKAN.

It' over!

The chorus concert was over with big applause, a sense of achievement and....tired!
Chisa's soprano was wonderful and I could did my best performance.

The only thing I haven't expected was "How tough to sing in chorus with a long music"!!

The chorus score book is thin and heavy. My back and shoulders were ache on the next day (*△*)...


But, more than that, I found that sing in chorus at a big hall feels so good!!♪

It's coming......

The corus concert "The Creature" , I wrote about before is coming on tomorrow!!!!
I hope it'll be a wonderful concert.
Actually last night was so hald that I can't rest my voice and my voice dosn't the vest condition... But, it'llbe fine tomorrow morning! I don't worry because , you know, I'm an optimist(^皿^)v

How lucky I am！

Most of singing techers in the Univercity don't permit students to sing Musical numbers. But my techer is different！ She likes Musicals,《Porgy&Bess》 the most. I can study musical songs☆☆

A corus rehearsal have finished, and I'm in a train.
THISA ,sings in solo was WONDERFULo(^ワ^)o！！ I like her voice！
I can't wait the concert on next week♪♪

Revived！！

I started to go a TAP dance lesson again from last saturday！For 5 or 6 months I couldn't go to the lessons, so I'm very happy that I can dance againヾ(≧∇≦*)〃

Oh...!

May her soul rest in Heaven.

I'm interested in the notice , and I' m going to send a e-mail to him and be a model.
