Audition update

Audition Songs:

Somebody to Love - Queen
Jack's Lament - The Nightmare Before Christmas
Annie & Warbuck song from Annie
That tomorrow song - Annie

i sang Somebody to Love to myself last night. i used to be able to sing my lungs out all the time, because when we lived in Chicago i would have some time to myself after i came home from school, before my mom came home from work. i would sing as loudly as i wanted to. God i loved to sing. i still do, but i don't get to as much anymore since there's almost always someone home here, and even if i was alone i wouldn't be comfortable enough to do it, anyway. i don't know, i guess i'm always paranoid someone left a recording device on somehow and my horrible singing would be caught on tape. >< So to get some privacy, i turned my music way up and crawled under my desk and sang loudly to myself in the corner. i guess i did pretty well; my voice kind of sounded like Brie Larson. Only she's way better. Maybe it was because i haven't sung in a while (is that grammatically correct??) and i didn't talk much that day. If that's what makes me sing well, then i'm going to duct tape my mouth shut every other period on the day of the vocal auditions. i'm still kinda trying to figure out what 32 measures of a song equals. Mr. Gossett (intro to theatre teach) told me to count the beats. i'm afraid i'll get it wrong, but i suppose if i go too far they'll just have to stop me. i missed the drama club meeting that gave details about the auditions. Big mistake. i'm such an idiot. i could have scoped out the competition, but instead i sat in the cafeteria before homeroom, fucking around with my stupid friends. (: i seriously doubt i'm getting a part now. But i at least have to try; i'll regret it if i don't. Two more days. Cross your fingers, people. i want to be able to do something after school for once. :P

Random.

Yep, that's my ex. Not the chick, of course. But i dated that guy in like...fifth or sixth grade. It didn't last very long, but i remember crying when he dumped me. That's the only time i've ever been dumped, ever. i got this off of the chick's Myspace and thought i'd show it to you. Not exactly sure why.

i never did the essay. Mrs. Carr gave me until Tuesday (no school Monday) to turn it in b/c i told her i left it at a friend's house. i would love to type it, because if we type it it only has to be two pages long, but my printer has no ink. So i have to write it, and it now has to be four pages long. FOUR FUCKIN PAGES!

i really should get started on it. but i'll probably wait until Monday night to do it. i love being lazy.

Song playing: Disturbed - Inside the Fire

i think i've pretty much narrowed down the audition song list to this:

Everyone's A Little Bit Racist - Avenue Q
The Money Song - Avenue Q
The song from Annie
Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better
For Now - Avenue Q
All You Need is Love - Beatles

And a correction from an earlier post: The auditions are on the 26th and 27th of this month, not the 25th and 26th. i'm really trying very hard not to rip off posters announcing the audition dates off the walls of the hallways.
