Tracy

So if you remeber back a little while ago now, I told you all about my audtion for the role of Tracy Turnblad in Hairspray... well what I didn't tell you was this... there were some really annoying girls there that day, and while I knew I wasn't as talented as most of them, I really could bare the thought of having one of them be then next Tracy... simply because they were soooooooo annoying.  However, the good news is this... remember back even further... well actually before you do that head other to my Project365 blog and then remember all the way back to april when I went and saw the musical Fame.  Well that night at fame, I saw something amazing, the lady playing the role of Mabel blew my mine.  Despite not reallying being one of the main characters, this girl stole the show when she sang her song "Mabel's Prayer".  Seriously the crowd was amazed and for me she was hands down the best part of the night.  Anyway, she (her real name is Jaz Flowers) is going to be the new Tracy I just found out and I am very very very please with their choice.  If I was going to 'lose', so to speak, to anyone it would happily be her. 

Oh and on a side note... I think that the chorus of Mabel's Prayer will soon become my mantra as I start looking at wedding dresses etc as the lyrics say:

Oh Lord give me a sign
Give me a call on your heavenly line
Tell me, oh Lord, what it is that you want of me
Keep me from eatin' whatever's in front of me

appropriate much?

Toy Story 3

Now most of you will know that I am super super massive Disney fan... And tonight I feel like my life is a little closer to being complete! If you haven't already, you should most definitely go and see Toy Story 3, it is seriously the best movie I have seen in a really really long time. I laughed, I cried, I got scared and I enjoyed some good old Disney Magic.

There is something about Disney and I know I have often talked about this before but I just wanted to tell the world one more time...

Seriously everyone.... do yourselves a favour and get on to it.

Whirlies

The purpose of this blog is to simply share with you the coolest percussion instruments I have ever seen... a whirly...

Yep its that big bit of pipe they are swinging around their heads... I had never seen these before and I probably won't see one again for a while, but I tell you what they are pretty cool.  It does make me wonder though what other household items could become amazing percussion instruments.

Also worth mentioning is the guy that was playing the glasses very impressive.

Bridal Expo

Today Dave and I have been out at the Melbourne Bridal Expo.  Yes, Dave came with me and just for the record, he was not dragged, forced of even bribed, he came on his own free will.

Anyway, I wasn't really sure what to expect, in my mind I pictured this bridezilla fest with people and salespeople going everywhere.  But it turns out it was all a bit civilised.  There was only one lady that looked a little bridezilla, but we managed to avoid her for most of the morning.  I think it was a good chance for Dave and I just to work out what we needed to start thinking about when it comes to our turn once we get back from Sweden.  So I don't really have that much exciting news to tell you... I was hoping that our morning here would bring great stories by the handful, but no nothing really, it was all a bit normal.  So sorry its all a bit of a let down.
