How it went :)

Hey all!

Thought I'd leave some notes on how my audition went yesterday morning. :)
Well the audition was for the role of Dorothy or just and onstage character for the Wizard of Oz (of course) and yah I was watching the movie all week - especially the scene I need to rehearse as part of the audition. I asked sooo many people to pray for me! :) and thank you to everyone who did! I know it would have calmed me! And it really touches me!! You guys are all amazing!

I didn't faint (which is good news lol) but I was very nervous still of course! My heart was pumping so loudly I really thought others could hear it (ha ha) but yah I did the script first in front of them - there were five people watching me - the Director, Vocal, Director, Choreographer, Musical Director and Assistant musical director, then another lady who helped with script (played the other people in the scene) - which after I did the script the director thanked me for doing the accent so that was bonus! Then I sung my song and it wasn't as good as usual because I was sooo nervous - the director wanted me to stand still the second time and just sing it again and really feel it (she asked whether I knew where it was from and the circumstances in which it was sung and I had researched it all so I did) so I sung it again and I was better the second time because I had calmed myself and slowed my heart (well God had) and yah :) then I did scales with the Vocal director and then walked out and waited for the dancing part. Oh boy it was hard! I am playing it over and over in mind now and I can see it but its hard to do it - its skipping and jumping, well... parts of it weren't hard but the first part was...I hope I did well :)

Yah so I've decided to thank God for giving me the part now - I had been praying so hard for it but now I feel as if I should thank him, and show faith in his will for me and trust him for the best. So thank him for everything and anything :) because if he decides not to give me the part its for the best but at least I still trusted him for anything yah know? It's a really good lesson :)

So not only was the audition a really good experience and I had fun! :) it's a good lesson in trusting as well :) having faith in our wonderful and loving God.

Love Me xoxo

Into it!

Hey all!

Well just had my trainer for my Diploma of Management drop by - it was awesome fun we went through a book as I didn't have anything to mark on as yet (well only a tiny bit) and we had such laughs going through my module its called 'Manage Industrial Relations' and while its got a lot of information in it it's actually an easy module, so yah we had fun :)
She's an awesome trainer and she knows sooo much!

Also yesterday I sung all my exam songs through and yah! I got my Vocalise right! I have had trouble with it this year - can you believe I keep going to sing my vocalise from last year (I remember it!) - but yah I had got it over the weekend, that is, down to only getting a bar on the second line wrong, but yesterday I got it right! Yah!

I know all my other songs I just gotta really cement their lyrics into my head I have...umm....five songs I must know. And two extra's I gotta learn, I was dumb and forgot all about one of my extra's (I'd learnt the other one for the eisteddfod) so I learnt it like crazy this weekend and now it's all good :)

And yah I've also been learning a song called 'You'll Never Walk Alone' for an audition. Its a nice song but rather low for mesa (being a Soprano 1) I can sing it, but I have to call on my really mature voice to do so but I know it off by heart now too.

Its awesome because I had really been praying to God to help me with my songs (madly this past week) and its amazing how he is helping me! Amazing! I LOVE GOD!!!!

Gotta go though so toodles!

Love Me xoxoxo

What's up?

Hello once again! :)

So I hope everyone's been having fun lately!

I have been busy getting back into it all! There's nothing like burying yourself in work to forget things, and I am enjoying work at TEC at the moment :) so that's awesome!
But I am partly freaking out because my singing exam is in a few weeks so I have been singing tons lately!

This year I have had trouble with memorising songs and all - Helen says its down to how sick I have been this year. It really effects it all and she tested my blood pressure the other week just to try and figure out whether its low blood pressure or high and apparently I am backwards because my readings are higher when they are supposed to be lower and its pretty rare so we both determined 'I am weird all round!' Ha ha!! :)

But yes so today I am gonna, clean, practise my singing and do some work on my diploma. I am into it I have done my excercising today as well and my bible reading first thing and I love the feeling once you begin it right with God the whole day looks better!!! :) La la!!

Anyways thanks for all the comments I get followers! Its really encouraging :) And I've been checking out all your blogs too and they are sooo awesome! So whoever reads this blog should check out my followers blogs as well!

Love Me xoxox
