YIPPEE!!!!!!!

I got to sing with the Sollerod Girls' Choir from Denmark!!!!! Thanks to our choir director, who was their contact here in the US, my homeschooled youth choir got a chance to perform several songs with them during their tour through this part of America. In addition, we went to the mall with them today!!!!! It was amazing to hear how well they harmonize and how closely they listen to each other. I had a blast singing with them. I also enjoyed trading fashion ideas!!!!!

6. One book that you wish had been written.

The blacks, whites, and grays of Theology, by G. K. Chesterton, in so many words.

8. One book you're currently reading.

Chaucer, by G. K. C.

9. One book you've been meaning to read.

The Divine Comedy, by Dante

since it is the beginning of the school year, I will just tag anyone who wants to.

I have finally decided

...why I named this blog Catastrophic Pontifications. The reason is very simple: it's catastrophic because I don't pontificate.
