Congratulations!
But please, for the love of God, take several dozen letters out of your title. It's too long and it's messing up the board.
Holy board out of whack, Batman...
But congrats. That's EXCELLENT news.

Congratulations sweetheart that's great!
I took out a few...
Sorry, I'm just reeeeeeallly enthusiastic about this because my audition really couldn't have been worse. Let me try and dig up a copy...of what I posted before...

WOOOO! Congrats, my dear!
Congrats! Good luck at call backs.
From the "Who else is crabby?" thread
Okay, you asked for it...
::fuming::
I sang the Life of the Party. Very easy, very simple. Even I could play the piano part. So, I said...Ok, maybe it's not that well-known, so the accompianist might not know it, but atleast it's not like those million "On My Own"s out there.
Dancing..was okay. I think I could've done better with more practice (we learned it in like...5 minutes This..huge...64 beat..monster). But I wasn't BAD.
So we waltz over to the singing portion of the audition. I hand the music to the nice accompianist lady, explain the tempo, point out the repeat at the beginning of the song, point out the pause, do everything that I should do as a good auditionee.
Well, she starts playing. Good tempo. Little fast, but I'd live. When I start singing, something sounds wrong though. When I realize WHAT'S wrong, I realize she skipped over the repeat. The repeat that I specifically pointed out and the repeat that basically settles whether or not the singer and the piano are in harmony with each other.
She finds her place around "I don't need a new career", which is only a few bars ahead, but it seemed like forever. I'm all nervous and flustered, because if I were listening to it, I'd cringe. A lot. There was so much dissonance in the air. The first "obstacle" that I have to overcome is the "Only want the game/Point me to the mic..." and I totally conquered belting that C.
HOWEVER, since I was nervous because it sounded so horrible, I completely lost my breath. My crescendo from "game" to "point" was okay, however, the C on point became a very noticeable shout. With no particular pitch. And it all just went downhill from there. Vocally. They stopped me around "Don't you wanna land the role...", which is only a few bars before where I originally wanted to stop.
The reactions I got from the two auditors didn't seem bad, though. The guy was sort of bouncing along to the tune and smiling, and the woman...I donno. She seemed very intent on taking notes, but she didn't have a disgusted look on her face or anything. I'm sort of there, bobbing along and trying to hold everything together. Ugh. It was soo bad. Hopefully they'll realize that I can indeed belt to that C and can go higher by using my mix voice and that I really want to play Amneris and that it was ALL THE LADY'S FAULT!
::takes a deep breath::
And scene.
And further discussion with Jwei
[07:29:39 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I tried copying my post.
[07:29:42 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: But alas, it be too long.
[07:29:47 PM] swoosh3600: ohh ok, lemme go look...
[07:30:59 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I am just in the crappiest mood right now. I should go practice violin, but I just want to..go crawl in my bed...
[07:31:22 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Maybe shrivel up and just never come out. I don't even want ICE CREAM. My FAVORITE comfort food.
[07:31:25 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: ::bawls::
[07:31:38 PM] swoosh3600: oh no...no ice cream?
[07:31:41 PM] swoosh3600: sex and the city?
[07:31:46 PM] swoosh3600: desperate housewives?
[07:31:47 PM] swoosh3600: the oc?
[07:31:49 PM] swoosh3600: chocolate?
[07:32:00 PM] swoosh3600: brad pitt!?!?
[07:32:09 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: No, no, no.
[07:32:10 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Nothing.
[07:33:16 PM] swoosh3600: ahhhh!!! NO!!!
[07:33:20 PM] swoosh3600: *HUGE huggs*
[07:33:47 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Not even hugs can cheer me up. I don't know what to do. I'm in such a crappy mood.
[07:34:08 PM] swoosh3600: aww
[07:34:20 PM] swoosh3600: you never know what kinda suprises may be in store
[07:34:22 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I just...god, I don't know. I either want to redo the entire thing, or fast forward till Thursday, so I can get rejected and get over it.
[07:34:32 PM] swoosh3600: i was in the WORRSST mood after I took my SAT IIs two weeks ago
[07:34:45 PM] swoosh3600: because I felt like I did HORRIBLY on the US History section
[07:34:47 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Rejection, I have no problem dealing with. But I hate the feeling of wanting to redo something. Especially something as bad as this.
[07:34:52 PM] swoosh3600: I mean, I was expecting a 300/800
[07:35:09 PM] swoosh3600: and I got my scores today, and on US History, I got a 620....WAYYY higher than I ever expected
[07:35:27 PM] swoosh3600: and you said that one auditor was really into it, so Im sure you did FINE!!
[07:35:30 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Still...
[07:35:34 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I'm sure he does that to EVERYONE.
[07:35:39 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: whlfkoiwt9gjafnkq2j
[07:35:40 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: h94n=g[roml
[07:35:44 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I'm so....MAD!
[07:35:49 PM] swoosh3600: awwww
[07:36:02 PM] swoosh3600: try to keep your head up sweety!!!!
[07:36:12 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: How?
[07:36:21 PM] swoosh3600: ummm
[07:36:31 PM] swoosh3600: remind yourself that at idina's callback for wicked she cracked
[07:36:52 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I did more than just "crack".
[07:36:56 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: This was a total FLOP.
[07:37:03 PM] swoosh3600: noo im sure you did SO much better than you think
[07:37:09 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: And Idina has this amazing, powerful voice, but I don't.
[07:37:13 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: (Stephanie's still better though)
[07:37:22 PM] swoosh3600: shh, i heard you sing defying gravity, and you have SUCH a good voice
[07:37:30 PM] swoosh3600: i was like WHAT? shes 14!?!?!
[07:37:32 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: And I'm sure it was this...small...eeety bitty crack. Mine was like...a bark.
[07:37:33 PM] swoosh3600: (stephanie is better)
[07:37:42 PM] swoosh3600: (they are both inferior to caren lyn, though)
[07:37:43 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Ugh. I don't care! That's not making me feel better! >___<
[07:37:55 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: (I haven't heard Caren, so until I do, I'm sticking with my Blockhead)
[07:38:03 PM] swoosh3600: LOL
[07:38:04 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I'm against....people that are 15-20.
[07:38:14 PM] swoosh3600: NEVER let age intimidate you
[07:38:15 PM] swoosh3600: EVER
[07:38:23 PM] swoosh3600: have you heard of the Broadway Theatre Project?
[07:38:26 PM] swoosh3600: run by ann reinking?
[07:38:27 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: no.
[07:38:35 PM] swoosh3600: its a summer program for musical theatre
[07:38:38 PM] swoosh3600: really hard to get into
[07:38:44 PM] swoosh3600: and i was the youngest person there last year
[07:38:49 PM] swoosh3600: i was SO intimidated
[07:38:59 PM] swoosh3600: but there were some 22 yr olds who were HORRENDOUS!
[07:39:06 PM] swoosh3600: so age is...mehh! nothin but a number
[07:39:10 PM] swoosh3600: im SURRRE you're fine
[07:39:22 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I want it to be Wednesday! Why can't it be wednesday?
[07:39:31 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I just want to be thrown out.
[07:39:32 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Haha.
[07:39:32 PM] swoosh3600: is that when you find out?
[07:39:40 PM] swoosh3600: NO!!! you wont be thrown out!!!
[07:39:40 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Callbacks, are on Thursday.
[07:39:44 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Tomorrow is another day of auditions.
[07:39:45 PM] swoosh3600: ohhh ok
[07:39:49 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: So I assume they'll post callbacks on Wednesday.
[07:40:00 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I have no problem with rejection.
[07:40:10 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: But I hate. LOATHE, even. The feeling that i could've done something better.
[07:40:21 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I can never get rid of that.
[07:40:37 PM] swoosh3600: aww yeah
[07:40:43 PM] swoosh3600: but youll never know until wesnesday!!
[07:40:44 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: My mom says that I can't do the production unless they REALLY need me, so if I'm an ensemble member, most likely, I won't be able to do this production.
[07:40:52 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: And this is such a phenomenal play...
[07:40:53 PM] swoosh3600: it's aida, right?
[07:40:57 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Musical, rather.
[07:40:58 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Yeah.
[07:41:03 PM] swoosh3600:
one of my favorites!
[07:41:12 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: So there are like...maybe 4 main roles.
[07:41:23 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: 3, for me. But Aida is brown, and I'm yellow
[07:41:30 PM] swoosh3600: lol
[07:41:35 PM] swoosh3600: im pale yellow!
[07:41:41 PM] swoosh3600: (asian/caucasian)
[07:41:44 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: So I'm stuck with either Amneris or...the other slave girl.
[07:41:49 PM] swoosh3600: nehbehka
[07:41:50 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I'm pure yeller.
[07:41:51 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: Yes.

[07:41:57 PM] swoosh3600: nebehka*
[07:42:04 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I feel sorry for my computer.
[07:42:07 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I have so much anger towards it right now.
[07:42:08 PM] swoosh3600: aww lol why?
[07:42:10 PM] swoosh3600: hahahah
[07:42:10 PM] swoosh3600: lol
[07:42:17 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: I just feel like picking it up and throwing it across my room.
[07:42:22 PM] swoosh3600: DONT DO THAT!
[07:42:23 PM] NotTellingYouLoL: But I don't think my dad would be too happy with that.
[07:42:26 PM] swoosh3600: cuz then you cant talk to meeeeee

Wooooooooooo baby!
Yeah! I noticed! I just felt like putting Sherie Rene Scott in there one time, and it hit! Then I saw the cast list and almost DIED! I love that slide with Lisa Kudrow and Sherie Rene Scott. Sherie definitely just steals all the glory.
Just realized I've been an ass and haven't thanked anyone for their kind words.
THANK YOU!!!!
Congrats!
Have fun tomorrow and kick some booty!
