One of my biggest regrets is never having done this. I was ready to give it a go several years ago, at the urging of some fancypants people in the know at an international pay-to-sing, and I was pretty excited. Came back home with all these crazy dreams and shit, head full of the magical five arias I needed to polish, and got my ass handed to me by an instructor who decided she didn't really like my voice upon returning home from the pay-to-sing.
And so I didn't do it. In fact, I quit singing altogether. Clearly, I didn't have "what it takes" to be a singer if being derided for six lousy months crushed me so handily. :P But I was ready. I should have done it. I should have found a way. And I hate that I never did.
OMG. GO LIVE MY DREAM, GRASSHOPPER. Seriously. |
