Bummed out...

Graduate school has been so tough, that singing (even at church) has been placed in the back burner.  I'm really itching to start singing and auditioning again, but school isn't giving me any free time to do so...For the meantime, I'll be sending out my "Star Spangled Banner" audition tape to several sports arenas (who knows, Phillies next year?)  

Who I'm loving...

Today's music has been really disappointing to me.  It seems every time I turn on the radio, the voices and music I hear make me want to gag a bit :/  Harsh, but true.  Therefore, I've been really loving music from back in the day-yes, I said it!  New Kids on the Block are back!  I'm so excited, their new album just came out and I can't wait to listen to all their new songs!  I must admit though, their first single, "Summertime" was kind of disappointing, but their new one called, "Single" is pretty good.  I've heard nothing but awesome reviews about the songs on this new album, so I can't wait to get it today!  (Can't wait to go to their concert in November, too!)

One down, ten million to go...

Well, just finished my first theater course.  We had a showcase today and I thought I did pretty well.  I was really happy to see that people loved my rendition of Miss Saigon's "I'd Give My Life for You."  There is nothing more satisfying to me than knowing you moved people in a positive way through your actions-in my case, through song.  Anyway now that it is over, I'm looking forward to taking more theater and voice courses-you can never learn too much!   

Open mic night?

Been looking for open mic nights in the area, so keep an eye out-you just might hear me :)

Still learning...

Just been testing the waters with the theater stuff.  I am currently studying voice under my theater coach and hopefully will continue taking more acting classes this coming fall (on top of all the Temple grad courses!  eeek!)  I'm excited yet nervous but that's because I know that all of this patience and determination will pay off someday.  I will continue to update my blog to let you guys know what I'm up to -'til then, wish me luck or just simply say, "Break a leg!"
