Day 92 - We're All Here Together!

Today was my brother's birthday - he is now fifteen! He refused to let me take a picture of him (even on his birthday!) so I took a picture of my sister instead... =)
Tonight I went to see Taylor University Gospel Choir perform in one of my local village halls. My friends and I brought the average age of the audience down to about 65, but I had such an amazing night! We raved at the back, dancing and clapping our socks off. There were many hilarious moments, for example the crazy dances (YMCA, Walk Like An Egyptian and I don't even know!), chatting with some of the choir (italics = Americans, normal = us)
  • "Do you know many leprechauns?" "Yeah, sure! I'm dating one right now actually! He's called Brian!"
  • "Is 'ginger' an insult?" "That depends... if you're like 'ugh, you're ginger', then yes; if you're like 'oh! you're ginger!', then no."
  • "Is it true that the rivers run with Guinness?" "Of course! What do your rivers run with?"
There were some really uplifting moments though, the choir were so accepting of everyone there, and the amount of joy that radiated from the hall that night was unbelievable. I haven't seen a group of people that happy in a long time, and the fact that most of them were old people, bouncing around and laughing was brilliant! Fantastic =)

"We are here together
You, and you, and me
We're all here together
One big family"
