It's once again been a long time since my last update, so here's some more news.

I finished sewing the robe for my Hermione costume, which I'm wearing to school the Friday before Hallowe'en. It turned out VERY well, I used black and wine cotton broadcloth and McCall's 4340 pattern. I altered both the length of the cloak so it came just to my ankles, and I reduced the bell on the sleeve. I still need to get a patch for it, but I remembered to add a want pocket on the inside. Once I get the patch and put it on I'll take a picture.

My singing class is going super well, with both good and bad news. Good: my teacher thinks I'm good enough that I could sing professionally, if I so chose and practiced hard. Bad: I'm having a LOT of trouble with my upper register, and she thinks it's because the trach tube from surgery damaged my vocal chords. BUT she thinks that I have enough potential that she wants to take me to Montreal to get it fixed/helped at one of Canada's 4 voice clinics.

Tomorrow I'm going to my Aunt and Uncle's again, to have dinner and build a new train set with Anton, like I promised I would. This weekend will be spent writing an essay on nappe folds for Structure. EW.
