Today I had my second to last voice lesson. It's crunch time. I have juries in less than two weeks. For those of you who don't know a jury is when you go in front of the entire voice faculty with four songs prepared and memorized. You pick a song and sing it first and then they pick a song. Sometimes they pick two (they did that to me last year). It's quite nerve racking because this is the only grade you get in voice lessons (aka my entire minor). I did juries once before, last semester, and got an A. Nevertheless it is still nerve racking.
Anywho, I had a voice lesson today. And for some unknown reason it went extremely well. It shouldn't off. I still have a little bit of flem in me from my cold, I just ate like three pieces of chocolate before I went in, and I hadn't warmed up at all. But for some reason, it was great. I sounded really good, really mature, I did everything she taught me all semester. I was breathing right, and she said that that was the loudest she ever heard me. She said I came back from break a different person. My voice was completely on today.
When I walked out of the classroom Amy and Susan were sitting there like they always do and they said "Amanda, you are doing really well. You've improved so much just his semester!" That made me feel soooo good. It's always nice to hear good things from your peers.
It's weird cause I dont' feel as if I'm growing. I know I am, but I thought I grew more last semester than this semester. It made me feel good to know that I am even though I can't really feel it. I hope I can do this well on juries. Another A would be very nice.
Right now I have a song stuck in my head from when I was 5 and in dance class. I think it fits pretty well.
