Day Nine: Two things you wish you could do.

1. Sing
2. Make art

....and a bunch of other things, don't get me wrong =/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well yesterday, I went to my first Granny Smith festival at Eastwood.
I went with Lia, and first off I persuaded her into entering the singing competition, which she'd never done before (uhh, come on! I had too.. ;D) She spent hours deciding which song to sing haha. There was NO MUSICAL SONGS OK. But there was one guy who sang "Stars" from Les Miserables - but he brought his own backing tracks. Fantastic. but she ended up singing "Part of Your World" from Disney's The Little Mermaid. I thought it was great, she thought it was crap etc etc. After about three hours, the winners were announced after the finalists sung for a second time. Lia sang "Colours of the Wind" from Pocahontas. -sigh- It is a great song. *downloads* In summation, my darling girl came third, winning two 3D movie tickets, a hat and $50 :) good job, love <3
Throughout the day, we ate food and browsed the sexy markets. There was one dress Lia bought for $3.25. it is GORGEOUS. -sigh- but it shall sit in her waredrobe until someone we know can wear it hahaha.
After, I went to her house and watched Wicked and Phantom of the Opera vids on youtube <3 as well as Cyanide and Happiness and Llamas with hats. Brb, rofling.
At 8:00, there were fireworks and a band singing a bunch of ABBA songs. It was a great time :D dancing to Dancing Queen and watching the fireworks light up the night sky. Fireworks remind me of my grandmother, though, but that's okay. They're beautiful.
Well I had a great day. What about you? :)
