"It is the city that doesn't sleep!"

So I got a chance to listen to everyone sing & let me tell you, there are some awesome awesome awesome people here. Out of the 17 singers here, there are 2 or 3 that are just incredible & I don't understand why they are wasting their time going to school when they could be gigging & making a lot of mooolah b/c they are so just fucking amazing. Then there are like 2 or 3 that are just... i don't know, they just were... and then you have the rest of us who are all in the middle & for the most part we are pretty inexperienced, so you kinda can't tell where we are. Oh, and FYI, I totally totally fucked up my singing, so thats fun. & I never want to talk about it ever ever ever again
There are about 6 or 7 people in our class of like 70 who aren't fresh out of high school. 3 of them are singers, & 2 of them are like...in their late 40s or 50s. Its strange b/c for some reason I expected them to be crazy good, but when they were performing with combos, these 18 year old kids were totally showing them up. At the same time though, its awesome that they are going back to school to pursue music. Whatever, I don't really need to worry about it.
Today Arielle (my jazz vocalist friend) & I decided to get ice cream b/c we are 18 year old girls & thats what we do, and I got really great ice cream in the best ice cream cone in the world. Obviously, very delicious. Then we went back to her dorm, Marlton, & watched project runway in the lounge w/ 892346892346 other people. Everyone was so into it b/c for a lot of people, fashion design is their major life and it happens at our school, so we have to be stoked for it. Everyone loved Vincent w/ his pants off and Andela's fucking rosettes. & when Angela got kicked off there was mad applause in the room. oh and whenever they do the shots of the Parsons building or the commercial for New School comes on, everyone does a little "whooo!" or cheer or whatever. Might sound lame, but it was just fun.
After that I hung out at 6A till like 4 doing, i don't even know what. Probably laughing at Alex b/c he is the funniest person alive. He's a design and managment major from Puerto Rico, is hungry all of the time, and sings with hand motions to his boyfriend over ichat. We were starving at about 3.30 & Alex kept saying "This is the city that doesn't sleep! We can find some food. I know it." As we were trying to use google & find some 24 food place that delivers, Jason was just so hungry that he left to find something. He came back w/ 5 things of Ramen. & Alex left with a friend to find something also, & came back with pizza at like 430. Just because I live in the city that doesn't sleep does mean that I don't sleep either. So I walked back to my room way tired & then slept till 11.30. I love not having classes.
