Region Solo&Ensemble I went up with a clarinet solo and a vocal solo. I felt pretty...nervous. My clarinet solo was definitely not where it should have been for Region, and I had only got a vocal solo ready in about a week or so. I did my clarinet solo first, and although it was one of my best times playing it, i knew it wasn't state worthy. And it wasn't. I got a 1- on it. I still haven't gotten to look at my judging sheet, which is bugging me to an extreme level...but i was really okay with the rating, because i deserved it. One of my friends found out that i got a 1- and was thinking that i should have got a 1 and was very upset for some reason...And so i had to explain to him how i really was OKAY with the rating and felt i deserved it.
But my vocal solo went MUCH better. I did the song "Homeward Bound" and I sang for a guy named Mr. Lister (which is an awesome name) And it was the best time i had ever sang it! Afterwards i had this lady telling me i was her favorite she had heard all day or something. Which i thought was pretty impressive! Then Mr. Lister talked to me, and was very positive about my performance saying that i had a very pretty voice. :) And i got a superior and qualified for state!! I'm sooo excited for state on the 24th and 25th!
Region Drama, my very good friend Hannah Zweifel and I did the Cheshire Cat scene from Alice in Wonderland. She was the Cheshire Cat and I was Alice. And I've heard that i have the perfect personality for Alice. What do you think...?
So these are some pictures my mom took of Hannah and I. Isn't Hannah's grin awesome?!? She had all these guys hitting on her... It was pretty funny. This one guy saw her and yelled "WOW I want one of THOSE!" (which made her very,very angry haha) And Yes, i know my dress is yellow when it is supposed to be blue. I was so sad that we couldnt find a BLUE dress for my costume...But i have to admit that the yellow finally grew on me. I love that dress now!
In Region Drama, you perform your scene, individual event, whatever...Three times for three different judges. Hannah and I were on our game! And we had some pretty awesome judges, lol. We did it for this one judge who said she "LOVED ALICE IN WONDERLAND", a judge that I know and have known for many years now, and is one of my good friends -Dani Corry-, another judge that was the founder of X-Press and who knew my mom very well (McKay Sheilds). After the performance he came up to me and just couldn't stop telling me how "cute" i was. And how much i reminded him of my mom. Haha We got a superior from each judge-and you only need one to qualify! so I'm equally excited for State Drama on the 17th of April!!
