So today I had an audition for my scholarship/vocal performance degree program. They make you audition to the program every year. Well, proudly, I would like to say that I got back in and got an Opera scholarship!
I must say that I was having terrible pitch and breathing problems until I kicked my butt into shape and started working out regularly. All of the professors and coaches are telling me what an improvement I've made this semester...I believe its because my body is in better shape. Its easier to move around on stage and not lose my breath while singing...i love it!
I'm so happy. SO SO SO happy.
I was the underdog going in to my program with the least experience. After this audition, they weeded out 2 of the people that entered the program with me...leaving 2 sophomore girls. I'm one of them!!!! I'm so excited. I can still call myself a "performance" major while everyone else had to drop to education.
bragging.
sorry.
OH I forgot! Since I'm only in my major because i LOVE wearing "diva dresses", I got a new one for my audition. I've gone down 2 sizes since January. I'm a 6!!! yay!

She does have issues. My whole family has issues with weight and its annoying to me. Health isn't an issue at my house, its how skinny you look. BUT I'm trying to turn things around.0 -
