Treble Clef Turns TWO!

WOOT!!! Let's PARTY!

Once, a 7th grader who called herself 'Spottedstar' on the internet, sat down and created a blog which she named 'Cornet Crazie In Action'.

Two years later, the same girl, now called 'Sally', sits down at her laptop and writes another post on her beloved blog, Treble Clef.

With 136 followers,

And almost 6000 readers from 60+ countries around the world,

And 741 great posts,

This little blog has come a long way in the past few years. 

And so....we're going to have some fun!

Now, recently, Laurea at Center Stage reached a big post mark and she did something called a 'Q&A Giveaway' where readers asked her questions and it was very funny to read her answers! I'm going to do something like this- so that you guys can find out anything you want about me and my blog. Every question will get an award for its special qualities. For example, here are some funny ones I asked Laurea:

So enter these great contests- they all end on Valentine's Day, February 14 in one month. And as you recall I now leave you for a month to focus on my midterms and Les Mis rehearsals. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY TREBLE CLEF AND I'LL SEE YOU IN A MONTH!

A Little Warning

Hello dear readers, and happy 2011! I'm sure it's going to be another great year of blogging! However, it seems as if the beginning of the year may be short of posts. Unfortunately.

As I mentioned in a previous post, I made the pit band for our school's musical, Les Miserablés. Practices were intense before vacation, and now, with school starting up again I've got pit Monday, Wednesday, Friday for three hours and so that takes up a lot of time. By the twenty-first, the pit has rehearsal every night from 5-9 with the performers and obviously that's a huge time commitment up until the days of our six shows.

That being said, I'm really going to have to not be on blogger during this time, just as I'm barely going to be on facebook. I need to work extremely hard on my music for pit, I'm lead trumpet and have a crucial part and have to play it well. I also have upcoming midterms to study for plus all my regular homework and activities to do. Therefore, I'm going to stay on blogger until JANUARY 15, which is my blogoversary and Treble Clef's 2nd birthday, and I couldn't miss that! Part of the blogoversary will be a contest and that contest is just going to go on while I'm on break. I will be gone starting January 16 and I should return on Valentine's Day, February 14. So, almost a month I guess.

But don't worry, I'll be here a few more days, just wanted to give you all a head's up :)

HAPPY BLOGOVERSARY!!!!!!

365 Days.

One Year of Treble Clef

For the newer people here, and for all of you, here is a special post

TREBLE CLEF THROUGH THE AGES...

Blog Names: Cornet Crazie In Action, Treble Clef

Usernames: Spottedstar28, Spottedstar, •The Cornet Crazie•, Princess of the Instruments, The Cornet Crazie

Avatars: Too many to count!

Templates: Rounders 4, Minema

Backgrounds: Certainly Celery, Olive Tree Musical, Olive Tree Winter Wonderland, Olive Tree Basic Brown


Headers: This is one of the first headers that Olive Tree made. EVER!

And then the Treble Clef basic, and Treble Clef Fall, and Treble Clef Winter Wonderland and this current one!

I've also been remembering some fun times on this blog. I remember when Olive Tree thought it would be funny to put my cornet on a shrine so that I could worship it:

 And look at the very first post I ever made on this blog exactly ONE YEAR AGO:


"Hey I'm a 7th grade student and my absolute favorite subject is band. My friends say I'm obsessed
and I've got to say that they're right. And I play the cornet, totally the best instrument EVER but of course others seem to differ from that!
Ciao,
Spottedstar"


Wow. I am SO much of a better writer now.

And who could forget the day I found a drumstick in my locker? Or the day when there was just a random flute lying around in the auditorium? Or my first (very bad) attempt at Photoshop? Or- I could go on forever and name something from each and every post, but I won't do that, because it would get boring. Anyway, this blog is great, but the thing that makes it great is not only me, but mostly my followers. Because you comment and follow, and if you hadn't I probably would have quit blogging. Thanks you guys, now let's go PARTY!!!!!!!
