Demetria's Autumn Concert

Trained a rat, went to classes, got some homework done, did a bit of writing, studied- the works.

I also went to Demetria's autumn choir concert tonight. Music isn't really my thing, but it was actually very enjoyable. The first two songs especially blew me away. The first sounded . The second was sort of tribal and African. Both very neat.

Demetria sang later, of course, and midway through there was another song that was neat and involved makeshift instruments like a wooden box, a metal pail, a can of rice or beans, and a hammer. That hammer would clang against metal, and all of the sounds combined really sounded like chains.

Also, a couple of the songs used large bells that really donged and sounded like they belonged on the fronts of ships plowing through fog. Very inspiring for writing.
