Photo-a-Day - June: Day 18: Something You Don't Know About Me
I have always loved music and loved to sing. In grade school, not only was I in choir, but had an a cappella quartet for which I arranged a medley of songs that won the school talent show. By the senior year of high school, I had managed my schedule so I had 2.5 periods of choir a day; 1 period of Girls' Glee Club which was all a cappella, and 1.5 hours of 8-part chorus. When I lived in Boston, I was accepted into the Handle-Hayden chorus.
When I moved to California, I had my connections for choral groups until, while getting my hair cut one day, I learned of The Distaff Singers. I was a member for three years, two of which I was vice president of the board, and had a thoroughly good time. After the third year, my need for a chorus was satisfied.
However, what very few people know is that I was also part of the synchronized swim team. I am probably the least competitive person one could ever meet, Competitive swimming appealed to me not at all, but synchronized swimming is water dancing and I loved it. Unfortunately, the third major ear infection put an end to my synchronized swimming career; thus, no photo of me with the team so this is my graduation picture instead.

And now we know part of the rest of the story... *smile*
ReplyDeleteOops. I meant to remove the last paragraph. Instead, I've added the missing photo of my graduation picture. You'll probably be the only one who sees it, which is okay.
ReplyDeleteI love that you're reading, and commenting, on the posts.
