take singing lessons

So number one thing to really get over..stage fright! It freaks me out to sing infront of my instructor. And he has a great voice..sometimes I wonder if he tells me that I have a pretty voice just so that I will keep paying him.. :P I love singing though…currently singing Sarah McLachlan’s “Angel” and just finished Sara Bareilles “Love Song”...which is my kryptonite by the way.

But hey, so far so good..gotta love my goal ;)

And I’ve always left it up to others. I have a good voice and I can sing along with them, but I have no freaking clue what they’re talking about when they start assigning notes or telling me I’ll be singing a ‘fifth above’.

I really need basic training, and I’ll have the perfect audience! My kids love when I sing, and I’ll be having a new baby in 3 months… I should go for it!

I really need to.
So bad.
AUGH
:>

it’ll be on here forever if i leave it here right now. I’ll grab this one again when it looks remotely possible. Just have a lot of priorities right now.

I’m taking singing lessons! Yay…go me. I’m so proud of myself. Singing infront of someone is so hard for me, and here I am doing it! And i love it :)

My aunt and mother were complaining that their mother’s grandchildren were basically useless when it came to planning their mother’s funeral. Note: grandma is still alive but in her 90’s. I volunteered to lead the hymn singing. I can sing but not that good. I want to take lessons to be ready before grandma dies. Hang in there grandma because I’m not ready. (and I love her too)

Well i used to take lessons with a lady from the english national opera, who was excellent and really helped me improve my range. She broke down that wall between my chest and head voice, it was quite the revelation! However, because im auditioning for musicals and pantos i need to work with someone who really knows the west end, and can help me develop the technique. I stopped seeing opera lady before xmas, and never got round to picking it up again. Well, iv just googled and found a guy who’s been on the west end, and teaches at the london music school, and its only £35/hr, bargain! an email has been sent, watch this space….

i’ve never been able to sing, and i’m not asking to do it well or do it for a living, i just want to hear myself and know that it sounds real and maybe a little pretty, too.

Okay, so all though I think it’s pretty cliche for every actress to be able to sing, I would at least like to try.
