Today in my vocal music class, we had auditions for a solo in our choir performance, (May 19th, I'll keep you posted) and I auditioned! It took me about 15 minutes of extra convincing to actually get myself to even do it. I counted, and I think I've sung in front of a group of people at least eight times. One of those times was for another audition. I think I did okay, and I'm pretty sure I did better than the other girl in my hour that tried out. Apparently, six people in the other hour tried out. My friend Mariah said she tried out, but I'm not really worried about her. I haven't heard her sing before, but I have heard her rap. Let's just say that she's no Eminem.
But anyway, I'm keeping my fingers crossed and praying to Paul that I get this solo! I want it soooo much! Every single solo or part I auditioned for, I never got it. I guess I only have the capability, not the nerves. When I get too nervous my voice is sort of ruined. Let me see if I can scrounge up a list of performance opportunities I took but didn't succeed in anyway.
Third Grade Solar System Play (tried out for Venus, got Earth.)
Fourth Grade Retro Oldies Play (Tried out for "Johnny Angel" solo, lost it to two popular girls.)
Sixth Grade Talent Show Audition (tried out, didn't make it, pissed because someone who was a terrible singer got in and I didn't)
Sixth Grade Choir Solo Audition (just plain didn't get the flipping thing)
Choir Performance Solo (we'll seeeeeeee!)
