For those of you who don’t recognize the quote it comes from a very dear movie called Its Christmas Time Again Charlie Brown the scene goes as follows.

Peppermint Patty: What are we hearing today Marcie?

Marcie: Handel’s Messiah, the most exciting part is when we get to the Hallelujiah Chrous and everone stands.

Peppermint Patty: Standing is Exciting?

That’s where I was tonight, dressed up as much as I could and watching intently JaJa Ling’s conduction of Handel’s classic. The Messiah has never been a particular favorite of mine but it is nice to hear around Christmastime. It was a nice sendoff from the school semester and I have never been happier to be home. My teeth are getting worked on so that’s good they’re actually getting fixed, I can smile in pictures again and eat apples with my front teeth. (I haven’t done that since the fifth grade hah a long time to wait but it was worth it) Anyway, looking forward to Christmas and New Years and hope to see lots of my friends. So until we talk again.
