I've been in my school's choir for as long as I can remember; I love to sing. This year, we got a new director because our old one retired. I considered dropping it because I'd miss my old director but decided against it, it's my Senior year, after all. So a few weeks ago for our Christmas performance, while the regular Senior choir was on stage, our Madrigals group (that's me) were out in the hall getting our props for our next song. We'd already been performing for about an hour already, and since most of the girls were wearing heels, we were pretty tired. My friend Rebecca and I decided to sit down on a stool that the box of electronic candles, our props, was sitting on. She picked it up and held it on her lap, and then soon enough it was time for us to line up. I stood up just as she did, and the heel of her shoe got stuck in the leg of the stool, causing her to fall down, dumping the box of 50+ candles all over the floor. I, of course, being the graceful beast I am, tripped on them and fell on my face. The sound the whole incident made was incredible - imagine a nuclear explosion. I had a massive tear in my leggings and was covered in dirt, and I'd injured my bad ankle. Rebecca had broken her knee. Nevertheless, we limped out on stage and rocked it!
