I love singing but the thing is.. I’m horrible! It has gotten to the point where if I start signing, my family begs me to stop. But music is awesome and it’s the one of the few things that everyone loves. It doesn’t matter weather you like classical, rap, or pop because all music is great. I might be bad a singing but a thing I am good at it, dancing! It is another thing that everyone loves (even if they don’t admit it)! Dancing can be ballet or even that crazy jump you do when you get an A on a really hard test. Dance and music are two things that connect everyone because they are universal in all cultures and languages. Singing and dancing symbolize happiness and fun!

Now if only there was a show that combined these two… oh wait, there is! And this awesome show is called GLEE! And that is why we now have a UMass Lowell Glee Club. A ton of UMass Lowell student LOVE Glee and got a club started for all of you to join! Its exciting because it’s a chance for all you Glee lovers and Gleeks together and do what you love. But Glee isn’t just about singing and dancing. The Glee Club needs actors/actresses, choreographers, band members, and an assistant music director. There are so many thing you can do to be a part of this great club.

Questions, Comments, Concerns, Conumdrums?! Check out the club page: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/home.php?sk=group_165792160122048 or email them at UMLglee@gmail.com!

And for all of you who have never seen a Glee episode: check it out! Here are some clip of the Show:
Umbrellas!
Hey Soul Sister
Forget you

Feel as if the semester has already started to get to you? Is the homework and projects just piling on little by little? SPREAD THE WEALTH AROUND. If you have a lot of things to do, get started working on them RIGHT away. That way you won’t have to stay up all night and do it all at once. Think about it like a large meal. If you try and tackle that all at once, not only will you not finish all of the food in front of you, you also will explode. Figuratively and POSSIBLY literally. Take things bit by bit to make things more manageable!

Cheers,

James
