Blah.. I so am doing my second year in NYC... that way if I have time I can scope out apartmeents, rather than going there bright-eyed and bushy-tailed out of Hollywood. Plus, it just... It's home, haha. Cheesy.

I cna't WAIT for amazing teachers that still are professional and not, "I did this 30 years ago!" And I looked up Casey, and he's an AMDA alumni... That's kinda rad. (I've noticed a handful of teachers are, Chryssie Whitehead amongst them for dance in LA) Haha, and a diva... Omigod. But, hey, if he makes you push yourself then he's doing his job. When at ASU, I HATED hearing that classes were easy and that teachers were easy,,, Not gonna help you grow as a performer, kthx.

For the BFA- Yeah, that was what my thought process is becoming... With my luck, they'll say I have to do all 4 years (or 2 1/2 FULL calendar years) for that and, frankly, I don't want to graduate at 23 and go to auditions where girls your age ATM will be there. Ew. I'll just tell me mom when I come home for Thanksgiving that I asked around and was told just to stay where I am. Because it's true like you said... Auditions don't look at what degree you have or hell, even where you went... If you have talent you have talent.

As for housing in lovely New York... I can deal with roaches as I had them in my dorm at ASU (but they flew, buzzed and liked to nestle at the foot of my bed and wake me up at 1 AM.. THAT was not fun...) and just become that paranoid freak who always checks her bedding, haha. And. DAMN that's really trippy about Strat! "Yeah, a old guy used to live here..." "What happened?" "He died in here." Though I think that and the bugs and the crazies is a good payoff to be studying where you are and what you are.

Eff, now part of me is just like, "Just go to NYC now!" lol.

typical audition and dance call... fingers crossed my semester of musical theatre dance pays off!

i spoke with my advisor who emailed me a flyer thing for Broadways New Voices... of 21 people, 8 are from AMDA, others from CAP21, Marymount, CCM, U of Mitch, NYU Tisch, New School... But AMDA has always has the most alumni for the past few years.

I'm so frickin' excited to be constantly busy and on the go. I'm considering doing the BFA program for musical theatre (though probably not a lot of my current credits will transfer over) and do a full year 1/2 in LA and the rest in NYC. But, that's a shitload of money... haha. I can barely afford now. :(

...Make it be October! I wanna start already! or September so i can get my housing/roommate info.

Speaking OF, where are you living? Strat or the other that escapes me? I've heard one of them houses crazies and has sewer roaches. Eeep.

p.s. Do you have facebook? Youuu should friend request me.

ummmm...

not to sound crazy... but... you were accepted to NYU. NYU Tisch. And you choose AMDA? Are you fricking insaneee?! haha.

okay, but seriously.

i'm glad it's a hard training... thing and keeps you busy. finally!

how do the demos go the first day? we were told at the auditions Q&A that you sing for voice teachers and are placed accordingly, and then dance and are also placed. (ew. beginner for everythinggg!)

oh, and fun fact... my advisor read my notes... interview- all 5's, which apparently hardly happens. and my judicator said I had a "musical voice"... whatever that means. and my acting prof at ASU who refused to let me read her letter of recc. basically said I "show a great deal of potential to succeed..."and ranked me top 5% of the year. and there were A LOT of really good kids in my class. aaand then she retired. sad.

but. yes. i'm so excited to start, you have no idea.

Hey, I'm a junior in high school and NYU TIsch, New Studio on Broadway is my top choice right now. An tips? And congratulation to you on your acceptance =)

hello i love your profile what musicals do you like?

... Wow.

I wish I had that kinda talent for Tisch, haha! But, sadly, I'm in the "she has potential we can work with" catagory not the "She's already really good, let's make her better" one. =)

Yayyyy NYU.

Oh how I wish "Two Strangers" could be a solo.. with a perfect 32 bar cut. And "How To Return Home" <3

Girls sang "On My Own"?... Wow. I feel slightly better...

I shall do some song research, decide their learnability, and get back to you.

So. Few things worry me now. My song choice as I feel every girl will be singing it. And my monologue choice, as it's serious, but sweet and uplifting... and overdone. But I do both pieces well. -facepalm- I'm not gonna get in on the sheer fact my life is hectic and I lack time to prepare anything, well, unique. -headdesk- I could do a comedic piece... but I'm not strong at it, haha.

And people who drop their first year clearly don't want it then. I know for a fact I won't drop out solely because how hard I've worked already. I decided the end of my freshman year here I was done.

Taping the audition? Eeep.... And was there an interview? AND. Talent scholarship... Faaancy.

I'm gonna be "that petite blonde girl who looked like Caissie Levy... I remember nothing about her." Overdone monologue (hell, I'm tempted to use my "Butterflies Are Free" semi-comedic standby... Gotten a few laughs...). Popular song thanks to the revval cast.
