I just blew my voice audition. The competition was fierce, and they were all kids who have probably not stopped studying for as long as I had, and my voice sounded awful, strained, and I didn't even know we were supposed to prepare 2 pieces - I just knew that I was supposed to show up. I ended up looking like a heel AND sounding like one, and I had to pee the entire time I waited (I was second to last) and I don't even have to pee anymore, I'm so pissed off. (Pun not intended.) For the first time, I blew a voice audition. I should never have stopped singing, ever, and I was TOLD not to, but I did, and now I'm paying for it. I'm such an idiot.

Sad news. I suppose, the solace you can find in this is that you know you have it in you to do this, and that there's always the future. Next time, go to the toilet first!!!

I should go to the toilet first, shouldn't I? Hmmm. Good advice.

There is always the future. Maybe. Possibly. Heh. I'm such an optimist, aren't I?

Oh, Liz... :( *HUGS*

It's all right. Eventually, it won't feel this crappy. :-P *hugs*

Liz, it's okay that it didn't come off well. You're brilliant, and it happens sometimes, even to the brilliant among us.

If you want to, you could join a local choir for awhile and sing with them to keep your voice in some semblance of shape. At MSU there are also several vocal performance groups outside of the official choirs, and they have auditions throughout the year. Does Stonybrook have any student-run groups like that?

Yeah, I was about to say. You stopped singing for awhile. You haven't quit. There's a difference. And WORD on finding some other way to keep up vocal training.

Thank you, sweetie. I'm trying to put into perspective. Right now, it's just denial. :-P

I'm going to try and find something, but as far as I know, this place doesn't have something like it. We'll see. I'll definitely look. I also want to look into private voice lessons, and see what that might cost me. We do what we have to do. :-P

I still doubt they thought it was as bad as you do. But again, like Molly says, there'll be some other singing thing you can do in the meantime, and it'll be good too, and who knows? You might even find things work better for you that way.

And I will indeed phone you as soon as the stupid shop opens if you'd like.

*more hugs*

Oh, and also: go and pee. :P

Re:

[mrsronweasley.livejournal.com]

go and pee. :P

Done. :-P

And don't you dare spend money like that!! You need to eat and get pissed. *nods* But if you really want to, I'm free this weekend. ;)

Love youuuuuuuuu!

I'll be all right. :)

*HUGSSS*

[miraminx.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sorry. That sounds awful. *hugs*

Re:

[mrsronweasley.livejournal.com]

It was pretty bad at the time, but I'm better now. At least, I'm more in denial. :-P Thank you, dear. *hugs!*
