auditions

Okay, so Danny made me audition to sing the national anthem for "Mormon Night" at Dodger Stadium and I didn't want to do it. But like I said, he made me do it. :o) I had to send in two recorded songs of myself singing: the national anthem and a song of my choice. I had to fill out an application along with the bishop's approval. I had to send it in by June 15th. I then I waited.

Recently I got a letter back saying that out of over 500 applicants from around the US and Canada, I was being selected as one of 80 semi-finalists to audition live in front of a panel of judges on July 18th. Now I am terrified! I hate auditioning! People have asked me, "Well, isn't it just the same as singing in church?" NO! It's totally different! When I sing in church I don't have people critiquing my performance to my face. So since the live auditions are actually at an LDS chapel near the LA Temple, I'm just going to pretend that I'm just singing in church. Now I just have to convince my nerves. :o)
