Tomorrow, This Week, & Beyond
Probably going to go to the doctor tomorrow ... my throat is burning and the girl I caught it from, whatever it is, can hardly speak. I hope it's not strep throat. emo I wanted to sing this week! emo Trying to sing in this condition would be madness. I would hurt my throat for sure. So in my evening "time budget" for musical training, I'll have to give the time I would have spent doing vocal practice to something else - additional guitar practice, or maybe studying music theory or songwriting.
I need to revise my schedule now, as there are new things to include that weren't a part of my life before. ^_^
Why a schedule? You wouldn't believe the utter laxity of my life prior to this in terms of pursuing goals ... all talk, never really doing much of anything. If I don't make a schedule and stick to it, nothing will ever, ever happen. I am keeping a list in a Word document of what I did each day toward my goal - even down to little things like working up toward drinking 6 - 8 glasses or more a day of water. So far I'm up to 5 a day, which is a lot more than I used to drink per day. I need things like that (Word document) to keep me accountable or nothing happens.
When I made my evening schedule before, there were two things that weren't on it, (so I need to revise it! ^_^) because they weren't a part of my life at that time: preparing for the flight attendant interview, and ... *cough* boyfriend time! heart *smiles* whee I'm such a lucky girl. ^_^
Wow, that completely derailed my thoughts heart ... what was I going to say? *thinks*
Oh yes! I was thinking that I would like to find an example of a female singer that sings hard rock or something to see and be inspired by. I need to see an example of what that looks like - what kind of stage presence someone like that has. Or maybe I'll just figure it out as I go ... Why is that it seems like less female vocalists are kind of wild-ish in the way that they move and dance when they're singing rock? Or maybe I just haven't found the right singers yet. I want to see someone who really gets into it that is female. There has to be a way to really get into the music without it looking unfeminine.
I remember someone saying once that they wouldn't play an electric guitar because it wasn't very "feminine" and I practically choked with embarassment. I guess I'm pretty self-conscious about not looking awkward or unfeminine. I think it'd be much better to let go and just be me, just enjoy the music. Although ... I can't say that the kind of music I'll be singing is really something that can be enjoyed, actually ... I may write a few songs just for me to sing for fun by myself recreationally (not to perform in public). I want to rock out! cool
Tomorrow ... the wild clothes ... *timid* ... oh gosh ... well, if I tone it down a bit, I probably wouldn't feel too self-conscious in the waiting room of a clinic ...
I think that the day I hold an electric guitar in my hands and can play it well, I will cry tears of joy. *wants an electric guitar so bad ...*
