Well, it has been quite a few days.
I have been running around trying to figure things out, and now am finally able to relax. Thank goodness because it is an important night to be able to sleep. I have done all of the things that help me have a good sleep: Exercise, eat well, steamed, drank lots of water and darkened the windows. Fingers crossed!
The most important things to ensure a great audition are: Preparation, sleep, water, exercise and food. (At least that is for me)
Round two... DING!
Night, night!

Countdown to Postcard: 25 days...
June 25th means that I have been at Merola for 19 days, and already feel like it has just started!
Today I see my costume for the first time..!!
Staging today my favourite part in the Postcard from Morocco: The Hat Box Trio.... SO MUCH FUN! (Hardest part also in terms of meter changes, but perhaps thats what makes it so fun: the challenge!)
We have an Amici di Merola picnic, which is always one of my favourite parts in the day. We are all busy and tired, and then we get to go outside, enjoy the sunshine and are surrounded by wonderful people! What love and support. Thank you so much :)
Off to start the day. I love my career!!!

Rehearsals, Lessons, Coachings
Wow. wow. WOW!
I have had some seriously life changing lessons, coachings and rehearsals this week. I had my wonderful coaching on breathing with Deb Birnbaum... I am carrying around a straw for the next two months, as that was just incredible!!
I had a lesson with Sanford Sylvan. That man is a genius! I was slightly vocally tired, but it didn't change a thing, as he was able to access some beautiful and relaxed sound!
Warren Jones was here this week. He has such wonderful musical ideas. Masterclasses with him are always eye-opening.
We also started Postcard rehearsals and they are going really well. It is a challenge hearing all of the voices and putting your harmony in as well, you just have to be very concentrated!
Well Week two is almost over and it has been fabulous. Week two has truly flown by it seems!
