i'm currently in the process of combing my severely teased witch hair do...after 15 minutes and loss of 1/8 of my hair, 3/4s of it is still severely teased...crap....anyway, time to blog and give my arm and scalp a break from extreme pain.

at the moment i have a good amount of energy, which is definetly the highest it's been all day. i've decided in order to get through the rest of this week in some degree of function i must resort to caffiene stimulants....so i'm gonna have coffee from now until tuesday and beyond...i will become an addict yet, and possibly before freshman year of college.

strangely enough i had a superb voice lesson today, despite my fatigue....actually i think the fatigue helped because i wasn't trying to overdo it with my throat muscles and letting my air do all the work, which is how it should be. i had enough air to make it through the first measure of ave maria, score! but i asked C about my potential as an opera major. both of his daughters are opera performers and also teach. he told me the importance of versatility and how i shouldn't close myself off to talents and have other areas to pursue as a back up. i can be an opera singer or any kind of singer i want as long as i have the basic training, the rest is just styling. with that in mind, i'm thinking of combing the 2 professions...going to rockford getting the bfa and dance minor....and then grad school for the opera training. but C also mentioned the importance of teaching credits, which is an appealing fall back...i'd like to teach voice lessons if i wanted stability.

but i need sleep, and before that i have to get off this makeup and get a comb through all of my hair, not to mention run through my speech.
