Hey guys! When I checked my blog last night, i was ecstatic. Five different readers on my first day! That is amazing compared to my tumblr, which I've had for at least three months and I only have two followers. But that's because it's connected to my original tumblr, so all of my reblogs & posts, and people I follow automatically go to the blog. It's complicated. The only way you can find it is by knowing the exact url. Speaking of which, you should follow me so I can actually get followers:

Anyways, so I'm really nervous because I'm trying out for my school's chorus tomorrow. I'm the type of person who loves to sing and is decent, but not amazing and has never had any formal training. There are a lot people who tried out and not a lot of spots. We have a sophomore arts requirement, so if I don't get in I'll be placed in some random art or music class. Bleh. I'm really nervous. I've also been sick since last Monday and I still haven't completely recovered. I had two songs I was originally going to sing, but I realized I can't really sing either of them. So I set out today to find a new song. After failing to be able to sing Beyonce's "Ave Maria" (One of the most beautiful songs ever. Go listen to it.) and Fergie's "Big Girls Don't Cry," I realized I was being overly ambitious. So I eventually decided on Maroon 5's "Won't Go Home Without You." If you've never heard it, listen to it. I like and I can sing it.
If anyone has any vocal tips, they would be much appreciated.
Is it hot where you guys are? Today was like the hottest day so far in New York. I spent the entire day inside, so i wouldn't know.
You guys are the best!
Dawn :)
I'm sure you'll do great! I'm in New York! It's raining with lightning and thunder.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It went pretty well but I don't know what happened yet. Yeah Friday was crazy! Are you still here? What did you do in NY?
DeleteGood luck! I hope you make it! When will you know by? As usual, it is beyond hot in Tennessee. It's blazing.
ReplyDeleteThanks! He said he would email me in a few days, so I should know soon. Yeah we recently had a heat wave but today it was kind of cold because it rained like crazy this morning.
DeleteHi! We haven't exactly met yet, I'm Nicole. Thank you for following me. I absolutely love your blog. I wish you the best of luck! I sing, too! My voice lessons teacher has me try to open up my mouth more, and it really helps. It helps your voice come out a lot better.
ReplyDeleteSorry for not commenting on the previous post! Welcome to the blogosphere. :)
Hi Nicole! I think I started reading your blog a week or two before I got my blogspot - I found you from Deserae. Your blog is amazing too. I've always wanted to take voice lessons but I've never been able to. If i don't take two dance classes this summer, I might ask if I can.

DeleteCan't give any singing tips, i suck at singing. i can rap though... anyway. i'm sure you'll do great! at my school people with terrible voices would run up and make it, so if the bad can, the good can. i'm at my grandparents house right now, it's not crazy hot but it's hot. or maybe i just think that cuz their porch has a ceiling fan :P

I actually find this comment really funny because one of my best friends name is Maggie and she can't really sing either. Weird. Chorus is kind of hard to get into at my school, but my audition went decently and now I'm eagerly awaiting my results! What have you been up to at your grandparents' house?
DeleteHey there! So I just wanted to let you know that you are doing a great job even though you've just started! So from one newbie to another I hope your blog does great!
ReplyDeleteps I know I sound super creepy I just wanted you to know that, Good luck!
