Demo:
30 minutes of Vocal practice EVERYDAY for 30 Days!!!!!!!
Seeing it all summarized like this...I can't believe I achieved it all within 30 days! What an amazing experience. It just makes me realize what we are each capable of if we put our minds (and hearts) into it.
It feels like the end of an era, and the beginning of something new and exciting. This challenge has helped me to develop wonderful routines in my day-to-day life that I will continue into the future to further myself as a performer and as a person. The vocal excercises each day, the healthy meals, the dance classes, and lessons are all fantastic! The live performances, industry auditions and demo recordings are great exposure and always an awesome experience...and then of course the Charitable Deeds...words cannot explain how this alone has changed me. It makes me step outside of my life, and look around at the lives around me...and want to help, to be a part of change!
I have gained so much from this experience and I never want to forget the things I've learnt and experienced and the inspirational people I have met along the way. Thankyou to everyone who supported me by reading my blogs, and to others who were there to listen, offer advice, guidance and give me a little push at times. I'm sad it's over, but so Happy for what lies ahead...
This has come at the perfect time for me, I have 9 months left in New York, and I feel like this challenge has pushed me in the direction I am ultimately aiming for "Broadway"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As I said in my very first post, It's not whether or not I "make it" it's embracing every experience along the way. I just want to sing....For a single person or for hundreds, doesn't bother me. I feel alive when I sing and that's why I came to New York...TO LIVE MY DREAMS. I feel like I am doing just that, I truly do....
