Well, that never happened (writing a song a month).
Hmmm, I don’t know, I’ve felt like I’m on the verge of greatness for about a year….. so obviously I’m NOT on the verge of greatness, otherwise I’d have tipped over the edge by now, surely? How upsetting.
This year is my ‘gap year’ sort of thing, before uni. I’ve got lots of things lined up – I refuse to waste this year!!!! I categorically refuse. Here’s my list of what I’m planning:
Running: Went for my first run this morning! Gonna sign up for the Tree-Athlon (5k) and the Race for Life (10k), both in Sept.
Music: Open mic nights with original material
I’ve recently been successful in auditioning for The Urban Voices Collective gospel choir – it’s SO FUN and we do paid gigs and stuff =D
I’m in a jazz duo, piano/vocals, although we haven’t had any gigs yet. I’m quite dubious about it to be honest.
I’m going to try and get gigs as a jazz piano entertainer in piano bars and stuff.
Voluntary: Going to volunteer for Battersea Dogs Home come September! SO excited! One day a week =) YAY!
Signing up for Camp America in August, so hopefully May ‘10 – Aug ‘10 I will be in America!
Acting: I’ve applied to the 2 best extras agencies in London and hooooooopefully I’ll hear back within the month =D
Modelling: I’m going to see how this goes. I have a casting for an agency on the 28th (I’m not really tall enough but I’m plus-size and photogenic and they want plus-size! So hmm) and I am going to try and be a life-model for art classes and unis – fun and I neeeeed money!
Shift work: NEED to get a steady job! I’ve applied and applied and applied to every possible lead but not one single person has got back to me O_O
Uni: I’m applying to Goldsmiths Uni in Spetember, for September ‘10. Going to do a BMus in Popular Music =D Can’t wait, it looks amazing. BUT it’s the only place I want to go so I’m trying to write the best personal statement in the world ha. Eek!
I honestly think all this is achievable.
Y A Y .
