Highs and Lows

Ok, so...we all have our highs and lows....last night...for some reason I wasn't feeling too high.  I had a great dance rehearsal in the morning...learned the new tap steps with my friend Karen......and got to catch up with her afterwards at lunch....then, I got to rest a bit before going to rehearsal with the rest of the Musical Moments cast.  And we had a good rehearsal...all the singers are amazing!  It's so nice to work with such talented people.  It's strange to think that I'm where I'm at right now.  I remember being in high school...playing the "Miss Saigon" and "Les Mis" CD's...and singing along to it. I remember dreaming that one day I would be the one on stage touching people's hearts.  I knew that singing and performing was going to be my career...well, It's been a long time since then.  And here I am, singing with people who have actually lived that dream....people who I can look up to and learn from.  Well...with that....comes the doubt inside of me...and I know I'm supposed to think positively...but...those feelings can sometimes over power me....I know I put too much pressure on myself and my expectations are always too high.  But....sometimes...not being able to do certain things with my voice can really make me upset.  But....I'll throw away that thought....I'm supposed to be a new me...believing that I can sing anything and I can do anything.....
