Types of Choir Students on the London Choir Trip

By Sarah Parmet



  1. The Sophomore Boys - Roughhousing in a 600-year-old cathedral. Putting each other in headlocks during the guided tour. Slapping each other in the hotel lobby. Tenors, am I right?  


  1. The Sophomore Girlypops - Not in their hotel rooms at curfew. Not in the hotel lobby in the morning. Holds up the choir for at least 20 minutes. Yet somehow, when the choir president bangs on their doors and they come racing down the stairs, they have on a full face of makeup.      


  1. Choral Leadership - “I don’t want to wake them up. You do it!”  


  1. The Ramen Kids - Me and my friends! Went out at around 9 pm and looked through three convenience stores to find Shin Rameon. Proceeded to use the kettle in our room to make ramen and eat it at midnight. 


  1. The Moody Alto - “I’m quitting choir next year.”    


  1. Shopaholics - Come back with the entire mall in their suitcase after buying up every clothing store in Piccadilly Square. You know we have Brandy at home, right?  


  1. The Kid That Didn’t Bring An Umbrella - TO. ENGLAND. And no, it wasn’t just one person. I ended up sharing my umbrella a lot on that trip.   


  1. The Sleeper - Falls asleep on the bus. Falls asleep on the plane. Falls asleep at dinner. Happens to be your roommate and can’t sleep through your Milking Cat meeting.   


  1. LOUD Theater Kid - “SOOOOO I HAVE SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT SIX YESSS I DO. YES. I. DO. OH MY GOD -” 


  1. The Short Kid - “We’re going to have to move some people around…. Sarah, can you see?” (no).   


  1. The I Didn’t Get Paid Enough Teacher - Sits in the front of the bus and loudly talks about how she doesn’t want to be here, and how much you guys suck. Kind of true.  


  1. The Rest of the Chaperones - Downing cocktails by the penultimate night.
