Brilliant, fannish daughter!
Nov. 9th, 2004 08:53 pmBunny's Quiz Bowl team demolished the one from my husband's school, 310 to 40.
There was a whole round that was nothing but Harry Potter questions and she got all but one of them (she forgot that Aunt Marge's dog was named Ripper), including the Hinky-punk, which even the judges had no clue about.
The Hughes kids went pale when the local team was introduced. "Not Mr. S's daughter? Oh man, let's concede right now." (My husband is considered one of the smartest people on the Hughes campus)
Bunny is also showing a definite flair for her trumpet. She's mastered it all very easily, and never seemed to hit a big frustration point as so many do. She's all "I can't wait for the concert and I definitely want to keep playing next year!"
Right now, we're in rehersal for Winnie the Pooh, which she's not in. Next spring they're doing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I promised her if she is cast as Willie Wonka (not at all an unlikely prospect), I will make her an exact replica of Johnny Depp's costume from the poster. She squeed.
And her vid "Terra" has been getting great reviews from the BASCon folks. I'd love to hear from some Eclecticon people how "Gift of Amber" went over.

Go Bunny!!!
