Twice in One Day!!!

My mother has taught me that is allowed to blog twice in one day and I still have 15 more minutes of school, so here I am, blogging again.

I have a choir concert tomorrow night.

In Jazzco, I do not try out for solos, I don't much care to be the only one doing something while everyone stares. And also, they mean a lot more to other people.

But tomorrow night, we are singing "Do You Hear What I Hear?" and there are 3 solos. The first two verses and a descant thing at the end. I LOVE this song. I figured I try for it. After trying it, I decided I really wanted it. I would probably kill someone for this solo if that's what it took. Mr. D had me sing it in class a few times, so I figured I wasn't too horrible. I was still in the running, the concert was getting closer.

I had hope, but then on Monday Mr. Dahlinger had me sing the first verse in the mic on stage. I was doing great, a little shaky, but I felt good. I was singing the song when I noticed I had switched to the second verse. No clue when I did that but I was embarrassed. I stopped singing. But then a visitor from college looked at me and mouthed "keep singing" so I started back in. I was sure I would not get this thing.

BUT....last night we had a performance at the golf course and he had me sing it there!

AND...I found out today that I will be singing it tomorrow night.

I am nervous. But happy.
