Getting Back Into The Sing of Things

I returned to my audition class feeling a bit brighter and more energized than last week. I brought back my ballad and up tempo with much clearer results. The Casting Director gave me some really helpful feedback too. One thing he has helped me realize - and I don't think that anyone else has ever pointed this out to me before, other than my mother that is: I need to smile more when I sing.

I think that I have a naturally somber looking face, so much so that people on the street have said to me, "Hey, it's not that bad! Smile!"
This usually prompts me to tell them to want to fuck off - I'm fine, dammit! But, it turns out, they were right all along. Guess I owe all of those random dudes on the street an apology.

"Let us see you enjoy singing the song" the CD told me.
Wow! I think I had one of the biggest revelations I've had in a long while!

Everything is really starting to come together for all of us and it's overall been a very positive experience. I'm going to be sad to see this class go, but hopefully some of us will keep in touch and I'll have some friendly faces to run into around the city when I go on auditions.

I'm incredibly excited and nervous for our agent showcase next week. I'm going to be keeping my fingers crossed. I just want them to like me! Really really like me!
