And a wonderful choral banquet was had by all.

Laughter rang through Willits tonight. Tears were shed over happy memories and goodbyes. We have officially concluded our 2012-13 choral season and it couldn’t have been better. Onto Commencement Choir where we say our final goodbyes to our seniors and through a summer that will bring a new school year and an even more wonderful year of Glub!

To end with a line from Litany, by Billy Collins:

“You will always be the bread and the knife,

not to mention the crystal goblet and — somehow— the wine.”

Congrats to our new core four!

After holding elections today, we’re proud to announce our new core four for the 2013-14 year!

Co-Presidents: Elena “Rocky” Eimert and Izzy “Carnie” Bisese

Business Manager: Rose “the Riveter” Levenson

Treasurer: Shreya “Swag” Padmanabhan

Eliminator of Confusion: Sarah Jane “Her Majesty” White

Additional congratulations to our new webmistress, Olivia “Vicious” Vicioso!

Just back from the Glub Spring 2013 Northeast Tour. WHAT A BLAST. Lasagne was eaten, nicknames were bestowed, and Duck Tours were serenaded. All in all, a phenomenal weekend!

For those of you who missed us in Manchester, VT and Wellesley, MA, never fear! Our Spring Concert (with all the MHC Choral Forces) is this coming Saturday (4/20) in Abbey Chapel! Come hear some new rep, including a gorgeous piece by Nathan Jones (its third world premier!) along with some new movements of Tormis! Can’t wait to see everyone there!

Today Glub left on the Spring Tour. Yay!!! Actually my day started way earlier. But I went to ride in a clinic at the barn at 6:30 AM, Ticket was AWESOME (he’s been so good lately), then class then bus ride to Vermont. So far the tour has consisted of Elena and myself nick naming the choir, getting everybody on board with a secret move, singing with a childrens choir, getting paired with the BEST HOST EVER, and currently watching Doctor Who.

Pictured is part of Glub (Glee Club one word, it’s happening) in the hall of the music building before we departed.

Guys, it’s February. Actually though… I have offically kept with this over a month… I’m super impressed with myself. I also now cannot rely on the date for the number of photo this is. Today I had my first Bio lab, and the lab instructor spent a lot of time teasing me— it was good fun. It was also in the Art Museum so it was/is literally the only lab I will ever have anything to say in.

Pictured is my lovely friend Eleni who has spent a majority of her past year (or at least I believe it is a majority of her past year) watching frogs/toads hop? I don’t really know what it is, but it’s cool, and there were high speed cameras. I also know that they (she and her lab persons) got to fly to go to some conference thing. I don’t know— it all sounds really exciting… I’m a history major so I don’t get it, but the cameras were cool.

Eleni is also the Glee Club President! Look how cool our President is! Doing stuff with frogs/toads and stuff!
