Random Act of Culture: Hallelujah Chorus

In my blog surfing today I came across this video and thought it was really cool.

This past weekend, shoppers at the the Macy's in Philadelphia were surprised when over 600 choristers who were there mingling with regular shoppers suddenly burst into Handel's Hallelujah Chorus. It's pretty awesome.


The Opera Company of Philadelphia was instrumental in bringing it together to perform one of the Knight Foundation's "1000 Random Acts of Culture" which they'll be doing over the next three years across the country. Accompanied by the Wanamaker Organ - the world's largest pipe organ - the singers burst into song at exactly noon.

Check it out.

Taylor Swift Video - Mine

Since posting the video yesterday I saw Taylor Swift's video to her new song "Mine" and I really like it so I thought I would share it with you as well.  I hope you enjoy it.

A (More Real) Love Story

Hi all!  I just had to share this video with you all.  It is a parody of Taylor Swift's song Love Story. 



PS.  We love Taylor Swift here but must admit this video is funny and definately more real.

An Emotional Week

I haven't been updated my blog this past week because my Uncle passed away.  So it has been a rough week.  I did enjoy visiting with all my cousins and remembering all the good times we had.  However,  it was an emotional few days as we attended the prayers on Sunday night, the funeral on monday, and the burial was yesterday.  But life does go on and I am now trying to get back into my normal routine.  As I go about my day I have been finding some comfort by listening to some inspirational music.  This is one of my favorites.
