FINAL CUT!

so the one thing I miss about high school is being in show choir

all the competitions

the hair

the dresses

the make up

"toes!"

I pretty much relived some of the glory in bel canto. What I really like about this choir is not only do we do classical, but we do pop songs... and this past monday we went over MAMA MIA! i love love LOVE the songs. I think I want to watch the movie. don't hate :]

For some strange reason, I have no desire to wear a good amount of make up as I did in show choir. I guess it was because we have to HAVE TO. it was really enforced... and now, I don't want any powder or eye shadow. Does that make me less of a girl? a woman? Well, it's mainly stage presence that's needed. "we don't want to look washed out" yeah yeah... i know.

I don't know. all I need is eyeliner and mascara. that's pretty much it.

I try to put powder and blush... and sometimes lip gloss and some eye shadow... but I get lazy. and I look gross after an hour or two.

ANYWAYS! what I also miss is singing solos in my choir... I feel like I can't do that in bel canto because there are a few girls who can really SING. I'm a good sport about these things... especially when they deserve it. I still have a smile on my face and give a good performance, so I'm ok with that. another thing that's different is that I'm always in the front row... there are a lot of tall girls in choir! compared to my high school choir, a lot of the girls were shorties or my height! not that I don't like being in the front but I do :]

So today, I auditioned for Final Cut (a vocal competition at my school) and I'll find out who'll be in the top 12 tomorrow. I have a feeling that I might be one of the 12... I don't know. before the audition I was thinking I'm not going to make it... there are other talented musicians that can fill in the 12 spots... oh my goodness... I want to know now!

man... it felt like Rhapsody In Blue all over again. the audition process. the solos. those times where I didn't make it. that one christmas solo I had.

it would be fricken amazing if I made it to the top 12

I don't care about the recording studio time

just performing with a band in front of my fellow peers

that's all I want out of it
