FAMILY! I have so much I want to talk about!
1st, is that I literally 6m minutes ago smashed my finger against a table by accident. I think I may have done some actual damage. So wow! Next is that my word count fro NaNoWriMo is 20,000! Whoo-hoo! I'm way behind but I just don't care~ Next is that I'm listening to Jupiter, by Holst which is AMAZING. And I'm listening to it and then it comes to this unbearably sweet part. And I was like, wow I’ve heard this right? And then my other brain was like, yeah remember that one time in band when that kid blasted Jupiter? But no, my brain insisted it was somewhere else! And then it hit me. FRANK. At that gorgeous mass during family weekend you sang this didn't you? I know you did because I was sitting in my chair going "wow, they're amazing, what is this song?" I'm not kidding, I wrote a paper for band on the music that was played at that mass. Another thing is that I finally found my favorite composer. Yann Tiersan. OHHH MY GOSH. His music is LOVE. So amazing. Anne you might recognize his music because he did all the music for the movie Amelie, which I am absolutely obsessed with. So possible Christmas present for Liz would be Amelie, the movie or soundtrack or ANYTHING Yann Tiersan does because it's just so great! (note. I have only seen part.1 of Amelie because youtube doesn’t have part.2!)

Favorite songs of Yann Tiersan (who is french fyi)/songs you MUST listen to:
(Search these w/ Yann's name in youtube and you'll find em')

*Le Demarche

*La Veillée (my favorite)

*Toujours la

*La Valse d'Amelie (Orchestre)

*La Valse d'Amelie


Continuing on...
Twilight! I'll be seeing it on Saturday; I'm super excited because it's going to HORRIBLE/HILARIOUS. But of course, I’ll have solid reasons if I hate it. I might end up really liking. Who knows? Either way I’m pumped for the experience. I’ll be washing my Twilight shirt tonight (I wore it to school today, because it’s premire night) Oh that reminds me! My bud Abbey, wore a shirt that had Edwards face on it and obve it she took this big piece of silver duct tape and wrote ‘I HATE’. So her shirt had ‘I HATE EDWARD’. Ha ha ha…

But really. I’m going to be completely unbiased when I watch the movie. I’m excited!!!!!!

TURKEY DAY

Yes, turkey day is nearing and I can already taste the hot mashed taters and creamy gravy in my mouth now. And I can feel my blood getting ready to boil for an intense game of munchkins. It’s ON.

So family I leave you to have a great Friday. Please listen to Jupiter and the other songs if you get a chance because they are FABULOUS. I’m in an absolute wonderland of listening to such amazing music for the last hour.

As always lots of love,

~Liz.

The song we sang is called O God Beyond All Praising, but it's the same melody as Jupiter. Twilight was actually really good in my opinion, but I'll let you see it before we hash out opinions on it. How can anyone hate Edward? I'm all for Team Jacob, but I still liked Edward. He's just, so dreamy.
