Mrs Orpheus


Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

1. Who in your life do you think behaves and thinks the most like you do? maybe one of my friends; birds of a feather

2. As a kid, were you ever wrongly accused (and punished, if it went that far) for something you didn't do? If so, what was it? What happened? nope; parents were good bodyguards

3. What about as an adult, were you ever wrongly accused for something you didn't do?? Do you think it's worse to be accused as a child or an adult? Why/why not? yes. I wish I handled it the noble way though, but I told the accusers to f*** the h*** off. My life is good and no one is ruining it.

3. What’s the scariest weather situation you’ve experienced? rainstorm. I woke up to find my piano floating in the living room.

4. If you could wake up tomorrow morning in another country, where would you want to be and why? France. I'd like to go jet'aime, jet'aime :-)

5. Instead of going to work Monday, if you could spend the entire day doing something else--any one or two things that you absolutely love doing--what would you do? a book in the left hand, tequila sunrise in the right, with occasional glances at the ocean

6. What sites (other than meme sites) do you use most to help you post on your blog? Friday's Fave Five, Mommy Moments, Thursday Thirteen (is it gone?), Musical Monday, Monday Mayhem, Sunday Stealing, Our Weekend Memoirs

7. Check out a post on your blog from six months ago (March 2010) and tell us what is different now about your blog and/or life? They're just breasts ... puts an added interest to post more That's My World and Friday Photo Flashback entries. I don't want these files forgotten. They help me decide what to do next with life.

8. What was the last photograph you took?

9. Which fashion trend do you believe is the most horrendous and why? I don't care if an annoying colleague wore this, but if I saw Taylor Lautner in it I'd kill myself nyahahah!

Sense and Sensibility: 200th anniversary

In 1811 Thomas Egerton of Whitehall, London published Sense and Sensibility . Quick math shows it has been two centuries since Jane Austen became a full-fledged author. Quite an anniversary, indeed. A celebration, I declare . Blogs regarding the publication anniversary of this romance novel picture Jane Austen 's engagements whilst making the final touches of her manuscript from Sloane Street. In letters to her sister Cassandra, Jane gave accounts of her shopping for muslin, the party that their brother Henry and SIL Eliza gave; mentioned several acquaintances, and referred to her book as S and S . As a fan I wonder which between sense and sensibility did JA deem more important since she portrayed both attributes equally well. I'm obliged to enthuse over my S & S reading experience. Alas, I only managed fourteen chapters before getting sidetracked by another novel, the very first that JA wrote. I will resume and complete my affair with the celebrant before 2011 end...

Hallelujah Chorus: stand or sit?

According to legend, King George II of England rose to his feet when the Hallelujah Chorus was sung. Following protocol his subjects rose up as well. Thus began the tradition of audiences around the world rising during the Hallelujah performace. There are many speculations as to why the king stood or if he even stood at all. The Bangkok Combined Choir is composed of volunteer singers of around twenty nationalities. Every year in December, the choir performs Handel's Messiah. I sang once. (pure luck: there was no audition in 2000) Rehearsals got me thinking of the tradition of standing when the Hallelujah Chorus is sang. I googled what people have to say and my today is a list of opinions about audience decorum during the chorus: 1. The Hallelujah Chorus is like an anthem for the church. Whenever you hear it you are supposed to stand up. 2. Standing for the Hallelujah Chorus just interrupts the performance. 3. People should not be taught that they need to stand up at a certain time ...
