Did Kurt's vocal performance class this afternoon, where we did a 20 minute warm-up. Then I performed "A Way Back to then". Came home and rehearsed his notes from class and warmed down my voice for another 15-20 minutes. I received some really important notes in today's performance class. It was all in the acting choices and how they are communicated. I did my song as a monologue then as the "little girl" who then suddenly finds herself taking life too seriously. Anyway my acting choices previously were too small and not communicated clearly. This was a wake up call for me, I realised afterwards that I am really holding back. And it shows in every aspect of my performing. I haven't given myself entirely to my singing, which is no one's fault but mine. I haven't because I'm scared...I don't know what of. Maybe the thought that if I give it everything and fail that a part of me will die inside. All I have ever wanted to do since I can remember was to sing. I feel like coming to New York was the peak, the absolute last chance (and first chance) to really give it a shot and now I feel as though I'm standing on the edge of a cliff and I can either fall or take a leap and maybe end up flying. I just want to be able to answer the question 'do I have what it takes?' some days I'm a yes, others I'm lost as to what 'it' is. Whatever happens I want to go home with my head held high knowing that I gave it everything. And right now, I don't think that's the case. Stop holding back!!!!
