I spent the whole day preparing a presentation about the famous opera singer, the one and only prima donna La Callas (as she called herself).

What have you been up to this weekend? Anything you'd like to share?
My friend's mother used to do her hair at La Scala in Milan and said she was an interesting person. A mix of reserved and diva.
ReplyDeleteHope your presentation went well!
