Pa... Pa, Pa...

Papageno!

OK, I am just super excited because I got the part of Papageno in "The Magic Flute". Hurray!

Fun Time Fridays!

Well, I auditioned for scholarships. It went well. It kind of felt like juries, except more relaxed. And now I am hanging out with Emily Matthews. Fun time Fridays! Nothing too important going on tonight... oh, except for opera, ha! Come see some wonderful scenes! :-)

It Has Just Been One Of Those Days

YAY! It has been a great day, vocally speaking at least.

I sang in studio today and even I was happy with how it sounded. Of course, my diction will always need a little work, Harrell herself even said that it was just this fantastic sound coming out of me. It's nice when I ACTUALLY sing, she says! Ha!

Also, I had a coaching with Seitz over two of the Papageno aria's (we are doing "The Magic Flute" next semester) and that went fantastic. Now, I may be crazy (and who is to say that I am not!) but I think I have a REALLY good shot at getting the role of Papageno. I tell ya what... if I can go into auditions and sing like I did today (or better even), then I really won't even care too much about what role I get because I am FINALLY noticing and hearing this drastic improvment in my voice... and it's about time!

Thanks Mrs. Harrell! And Trent! And Crabb! And Seitz!

Heck, thanks to L. Lang who helped me a bit last year too ;-)

Good mood today or what? Hope all is well for... well.. whoever reads this. Ciao!

I Am So Silly

But seriously. Do you ever get upset or frustrated at a situation over which you have no control and then get upset at yourself for getting upset. OK, maybe it's just me.

Without going into any detail, I have decided (a while ago actually) to take this negative energy and spin it around so that it will benefit me in the near future. Positive thinking, right? It's really hard to do sometimes, but I know that I just have to keep working that much harder and eventually it will pay off.

In other news, I am thinking of having a party for you next semester. That's right, for YOU! :-) A party in honor of all of the wonderful people in my life. Hopefully you will be able to attend (date is TBA)!

Check It Out!

A new blog to which I will help contribute!
