As if I wasn't nervous enough...

We recently had choir tryouts for Salem Hills High School. The two more advanced choirs are called Concert Choir and Singers. Concert Choir is the big choir with boys and girls. I made it as a first soprano. I also got a call back for Singers. That choir is only twelve boys and twelve girls. I got a call back for first soprano also.

Tour is coming up. We leave on the ninth of April (only fourteen days!!!). I got registered for an award that is only given to girls, it is called 'Best Female Vocalist'. I am already nervous and that doesn't really help but I really just don't think that I will get it since I am only sixteen and a Sophomore.

Don't be nervous -- you always look quite comfortable on stage. All you have to do is your best - that's all anybody expects of you. I know you have a lot riding on your shoulders with this solo, but if you can just sing to enjoy the experience, the joy will come through and you'll be fine.
No matter how good you are, there are ALWAYS people that are better than we are. You find in sports, music, art, etc. Keep that in mind and you will stay humble.
WE WILL BE CHEERING FOR YOU FROM HOME!! Go Katy!!!
