Dear Future Parents

Dear Future Parents,


I have found a bit of data that you might be interested in. I know a fool-proof way to ensure that your daughter gets married within 4 years of High School. You don't think that there is just  ONE thing that could have such an effect? Well, let me show you the evidence....


Lone Peak Chamber Choir- 2005-2006
Sopranos:
1. Karlie R. -MARRIED
2. Lacie J. -MARRIED
3. Sally D. -MARRIED
4. Nicole B. -MARRIED
5. Britney P.- kind of flown off the radar, but last time I checked, she was not married. 
6. Nicole C. -MARRIED
7. Sabrina B. -MARRIED

Altos:
1. Martha P. -MISSION
2. Jade J. -MISSION
3. Emily S. -MARRIED
4. Becca S. -Neither
5. Leslie F. -MISSION
6. Brooke L. -Niether
7. Danielle S. -MISSION

I thought this was interesting, but it wasn't until I moved on to the next year that I realized just how true this was... 

Lone Peak Chamber Choir 2006-2007

Sopranos:
1. Lindsay R.-MARRIED
2. Sally D. -MARRIED
3. Katrina L. -ENGAGED
4. Tia H. -ENGAGED
5. Lea W. -MARRIED
6. Trish R.-MARRIED
7. Trisha R. -MARRIED

Altos:
1. Martha P. -MISSION
2. Jade J. -MISSION
3. Stacy E. -MISSION
4. Jessica L. -MISSION
5. Melissa B. -MISSION
6. Emily B. -MISSION--this is an update- apparently she is expecting her call this week- Thanks Melissa!) It just helps to prove my point haha
7. Erin M. -neither

Yep, that's right. For some reason, boys can't resist those high fluffy voices. For my Senior year to have ALL of the sopranos engaged/married, and all but ONE of the altos on missions (mind you, she is not a member of the church, so I think she is exempt). It's crazy stuff. So parents, if you want your daughter to get married in college, or you are just too excited to plan a wedding you can't wait more than 4 years, put her in choir, and make sure she's a soprano. 

My nickname in choir was "Beef" because I was told on many occasions that I had a "beefy" voice. This is sounding worse and worse as I type it, but I was told it was because I had such a rich, dark singing voice...  As much as I loved being an alto, the evidence is clear that guys prefer sopranos. So parents, don't let your daughter grow up listening to Karen Carpenter, otherwise her choir teacher will tell her it sounds like she gargled with drain-o (A comment I got all the time) because she can sing so low. 

I think I have proven my point. 

Case closed.

Sincerely,
Martha

Haha, WOW! That is crazy! I was a Soprano in madrigals at Brighton and I got married within 1 year of high school graduation... I should check and see if we had the same trend. :)

ahahaha. Martha this is hilarious. Also, Emily IS going on a mission - she's expecting her call this week! Which makes the stats even better.

Thanks for compiling this - I've never been told I gargled with drano (harsh!) but I've gotten similar comments.

Let's just go with "chocolate" instead of beef. :)
