It's time to get to work......

I’m nervous about starting my second year in college and it’s freaking me out. I’m taking on 19 credits and it’s not so much the credits that make me nervous it’s that I’m anxious about getting better and reaching the next level vocally. I still feel incredibly insecure in my voice and music theory studies. I just hate that feeling, so out of control that it really just drives me nuts! I want to be good, now. This I know is not going to happen overnight, it will take time and I just have to take time. I’ve realized that given the choice I’ve made in career it will require a lot of sacrifice, still I know it will be worth it. I can see this all happening right before my eyes, the time that music takes is well spent but absolutely overwhelming.

This semester I’m going to take Acting, a course I wanted to take this passed spring but couldn’t because I simply didn’t have the time and now the story isn’t much different but I want to connect with my pieces more easily and to understand drama more, simply by experiencing it from a different perspective. I wish I had the time and energy to spend in a practice room but I haven’t, now I’ve decided to make the time. I want to be the best, I want to reach the next level musically and to achieve this I have to make more sacrifices. Getting up early, staying up late and focusing on the tasks at hand, I can’t spend time on foolish things anymore.

Because it’s time to get to work, now more than ever.

Update on me....

I know it’s been a very long time since I wrote an entry for this blog but In my defense it’s been pure madness since school started in late August. I was able to receive a scholarship to study music in the college where I’m currently attending. I must say it’s both terrifying and fulfilling. I am totally in love with my Opera/Music Theater Workshop! The people are absolutely amazing and the class is more fun than work. I’m trying hard to get out of my comfort zone by making friends in all of my music classes. I just have to say I’m just barely catching up in my Musicianship I class. I have an assignment due on scales and I’m totally stuck. The work is never done but I have to admit I’m totally in love with the music department.
I’m taking voice lessons with Carla Delvillageio who is the sweetest person ever; I know I’m going to learn a lot from her.

For now this is all, I’ll be writing in soon.
Happy Singing
