and now, the end is near...

i had my 17th session (syet.. one more to go, and I could say goodbye na..) kahapon. maaga ako umalis pero sa pag-iikot ko sa Araneta Center kasi maaga din akong dumating, mejo na-late ako ng alis. Nag jeep na lang ako papunta. Coach Dynes and COach Yen were talking when I arrived and I joined them na lang. May practice later at 5pm daw. habol na lang ako. Weird nga, ang alam ko day-off ni Coach ngayon e. Sa Saturday and Sunday meron din, 6pm pa.

Hindi kaagad nag-start. I was waiting for around 15 minutes habang nagpapa-beauty pa si coach at kinukulit sya ni Charles. Anyway, si Coach Dynes ulit ang nag-handle, I was alone for the session again. Good for me. Andun si Charles and his friend when I got there, nanood pa nung first part ng ginawa ko. Niloloko pa nga niya ako if he could steal my minus one.. hehehe. When he heard me sing, Panalo daw.. compliment? maybe. but i was tense during the entire time.. for the entire 2 hours.. to be exact.

Andami naming stop. Kasi ang ginagawa ko yung ginagawa ni Lea sa rendition nya. Wala halos modulation. Puro belt out. The emotion of the character ay galit. Andami naming binago. As in staggering. Buti na lang pala nag type ako ng lyrics coz I made her write where I was going to belt out, to modulate, kasi nahihirapan akong i-memorize kasi wala akong model.

we even listened to "I Enjoy Being A Girl".. mukhang di nya masyadong type. So its "on my own" for me. konti lang naman daw ang mag-slow song.. mostly upbeat and dance.

Pagod na ako non.. we even did "You Were There".. my voice was quivering na.. I was bad at the high notes. really bad. ganun talaga ako pag pagod na.. inulit ulit pa talaga namin yung mataas na akala ko magagawa ko na. Nagawa ko rin pero kulang pa.. tapos balik kami sa "On My Own".. dito pagod na talaga ako.. halos wala ata akong rest since I started.. isa lang, nung nag-CR si coach. tuloy tuloy na kami after.. except nung pinapakinggan namin yung kanta ni Lea Salonga.. galit nga sya. we were discussing about vibrato rin.. wag ko daw gawin yun coz that's classical. Broadway daw is half-pop and half-classical. Sa amin daw tremolo.

Ayun.. natapos din. breathing pa rin at high notes. I commented na session 1, high notes na ang problema ko. here i am at session 17, na high tones pa rin ang problem. nakaka-leche. tapos may confession sya. nagi-guilty daw sha kasi nagsinungaling sya. she told me na may confession sya, nagse-session pa lang. sa dulo nya na raw sasabihin.

the guy who i first suspected as the reason for the major change in her (bangs, makeup) nung dating session was THE ONE. hindi crush, boyfriend. natawa na lang ako.. kasi yun talaga yung first suspect ko. naguilty kasi honest naman daw ako sa kanya, tapos she was not being honest in return. we were talking about it when coach yen entered the room. ang naging discussion ay cellphones, tinanong kung ok yung camera ng phone ko. i even offered her to buy my phone na lang, though the camera sucks. later lumabas na kaming tatlo. coach yen stopped sa locker nya. pero kasabay ko si coach dynes, we resumed talking nung mejo malayo na kami kay coach yen. she denied daw kasi nahihiya daw sya. iba daw ang may crush dun sa tinuro nyang crush nyang si mike (she told me who, though). nagso-sorry pa.. pero ok lang naman. kahit ako siguro mahihiya din ako.. but she opened up rin naman, which is good.

kagabi tinapos na namin ni mama yung mga dapat nyang i-submit. she likes the rendition of Lea better, pero I don't want to go against the director naman. baka magalit coz I didn't follow her. Puyat na naman ako. I also watched the Amazing Race season finale (the final leg, di ko na inabutan yung elimination part, Hayden and Aaron got eliminated). I wanted Kris and Jon to win, too bad Freddy and Kendra got to win. Kris and Jon deserved it more.

Anyway, looking forward to my session tonight again. Madami kami nito.. we were gonna practice the solo numbers daw and the mediums are gonna be assigned tonight. i have to nail the solo number tonight perfectly. there's no room for error, may tao pa naman na madami. 5pm ang start, pero hahabol na lang ako. I have to shine. I have to be different. The only recitalist who will be doing a Broadway piece is one. (Ako lang daw ang Broadway) I have to do it in the best possible manner I could muster out of myself.

Sana lang hindi ako mapunta sa novelty na medium.. hehehe.
