I was so excited when I found out there was going to be a solo part in the choir concert this year! I was fairly certain I'd get it since the only other people who truly cared about choir were to shy to try out... Anyway, I practiced and practiced the few lines in the girl's solo till the day before the concert... And every time I had tried to sing it in class I did terribly, yet when I did it at home I was rather good! That night though, the last rehearsal before the real thing, she finally announced who got the two solo parts (one guy's part and one girl's)... But she had swapped the parts!!! I now had the boy's part and the guy had gotten the part I had practiced for! I now had one night to practice!!!! Needless to say, I practiced like crazy! Unluckily for me, everyone else knew about my predicament, and kept making jokes about how I'd ruin the whole concert... But that day in choir class, I proved I could do it and through their comments back in their faces! (I never said anything of course, I just sang very well and looked each of my critics in the face as I did so!) This small success, however, made me cocky. Here are the results:
What happened? I'll tell you... I had a random thought right before my next line! I completely lost my concentration, and I freaked! When I realised what had happened I kicked myself mentally! I was such an idiot! My heart rate pretty much doubled as if I'd just run a marathon and I could feel sweat run down the small of my back! The best I could do was try and salvage the last bit of my piece and hope no one noticed... Yeah right!!!
