Day 17 part 1, I've been better

I woke up at 7, couldn't open my eyes, it was pissing from the heavens outside, my room was freezing and I hated my life. I went to kitchen, to meet my hangovered flatmate drinking tap water and going back to bed, and realize that I was too busy to do my groceries yesterday so I'd have to have tomato mushroom pasta sauce if I wanted breakfast on this fine early morning. Passsss... I also failed to print out my resumee. At that point I started a debate with myself wheter I should leave the house today AT ALL! But I had.
Went to staples to have it printed out- 30 min waiting time. Well, Im gonna have starbucks next door. So I collected it at 9 and went to Pearl Studios, also next door.

Audition:
It seemed surprisingly empty and quiet. How wong was I then! When I got to the actual room, it was FULL! I put my name on the list... as 283rd... I so wish I havent had that starbucks!!!! So i waited for an hour there for the start and find out something more maybe. Didnt really happen. So after another hour I went (again next door) to RG studios for my:

Daily Practice:
30 min of vocalization and working on my audition song- come with me. I pimped the choreo a bit cos I just felt like it. it looked to stiff... Its crazy now and there's no way Im gonna do it right at the actual audition! I left the studio and there was a guy sitting outside. I was packing my stuff and he said- did you just sing "come with me"? I replied yes, he then said he's looking for a singer like me for a Broadway Sweeney Todd renewal and he'll take care of my visa. We'll I wish he have said that... instead he said "you should drop the key of the song" I felt like saying your mother needs to drop the key but I said- yeah I know. That didnt help me!!! Anyway Im back at Pearls, its almost 2pm and i've been yere for last 5 hours of my life. There's still over 100 people ahead of me. Girls mostly, as its girls audition day and Im here cos I couldnt come yesterday. What can I say- its loud here. At the Radio City Hall audition, just for men, it was also busy but quiet. It seems like every single girl here's got something extremely important to say to ANYONE and EVERYONE in the room. Never mind the humming, lip rolls and other vocal warm ups. Im not exactly sure what Im doing here! Im missing all the classes at school and even if a miracle happens I cant take the job cos I dont have a visa. So unless my future wife is somewhere here in the room, it seems like an utter waste of time. Well i learnt one thing, radio city hall spoiled me and I have to come for my audition at least 2 hours ahead of time. Ok, im starving, I'll get a sandwich next door (!!!).


Few hours later:


So its 3.45 and I just finished! Im so glad its over! It think went pretty well but it doesnt matter what I think of course! Choreo went OK but I blacked out totally so dont remember what I did exactlt. My pianist screwed up (im not blaming her though, its a difficult one!) so we werent exactly in syncing but its over now! That's what matters! Shrek audition- done!

-------------------------
I'm back at home now! It's almost 10pm and I am exhausted. Haven't done much physically but I think I'm generally over-used. Therefore A quick update on the rest of my day!

Private Voice Class:
with Kurt Robinson. Thank you so much for the lesson, Kurt. For your advices and support. That means a world to me!

Later on, a bit of shopping so I don't starve myself tomorrow again. Then:



Healthy Meal:
Pasta with mushroom/meat/garlic sauce.

 


Classical Piece of the Day:
I'll go easy on ya today! Night on Bald Mountain by Modest Mussorgsky. It's well creepy though!



Ok, Shower, book and bed now!! I don't even want to think about tomorrow!!!!
