Today was a sad day.
We sang at Ms Piper's Funeral today.
We only stayed a short time, but it had a big impact on me.
More on that later tho, first about today.
Woke up late-ish...
Well I was super tired so I just slept past combined and scripture.
Still managed to get to school on time but.
With 5 minutes to spare =)
Carumen-chan and lenloe shared some chicken/cheese/mushroom omelette with me -orgasms-
>w< good =")" go ="("><;; We got off the bus and there were screen with Ms Piper's face on them. She looked so young and vibrant. It sort of jolted my memory to back when I had her in year 7. There were lots of long-time teachers from NSG and also Ms Ash. At first it felt like a very happy funeral, because everyone was wearing colour and were smiling (Apparently Ms Piper asked for everyone to be wearing colour at her funeral, and would've hoped for us to be happy) But then when we started singing, the tears started to come out. Theirs...and ours. I don't know who else cried while singing, But when we got to the first chorus I couldn't help myself and started crying. It was so emotional. It wasn't necessarily out best performance or anything, but the emotion was overwhelming.
The song was beautiful with the acoustics of the small hall.
Her coffin stood behind us in an alcove with flowers on top of it.
As we sang I saw people slowly start to break down and release all the pent up emotion that they couldn't express in words.
The 4 or so kids in the front row huddled together and cried quietly, their parents/older relatives hugging them close.
I almost broke down but regained composure to finish the song.
Tears rolled down the side of my cheek as we tried our best to do her justice.
The weather was beautiful.
It was like she was smiling down on us.
I'd like to think she's happy somewhere up there.
I hope we were somehow able to convey the emotion we felt for her, even though most of us didn't know her very well, if at all.
I hope they were able to feel...
It was just heartbreaking to see how we moved so many of them to tears.
Talked about mortality and like...passing on on the trip back.
Lunch, went with Carumen-chan and Jassy to Eighty Ate to grab lunch.
My risotto took a long time.
Then spent fourth period being extremely high with Jess, Sabbers, Bree and Weelay xD
Funtimes.
Hopefully that vid goes on facebook haha.
English was meh. Period.
Jap Ext; stressful cos we had to speak to Roland (the voice recorder) again.
I think I'm screwed cos I pretty much wrote out my speech.
Oshiet...
Chocolate~
Awkward cos people at the bus stop were all the musical people.
I still can't get over Tristan and Lisa-marie being smarmy together...
I dunno.
It's nothing incriminating.
But there's still an uncomfortable feeling about it.
Kai and Louis said hi 8)
Mum picked me up, drove to Turramurra gas station, then back to Pymble to pick Kevin up, then home.
Oh we passed a baby rabbit while on the road, but when we doubled back it was gone.
=(
Probs scared away by the old woman walking on the sidewalk -glares-
That is all =)
