Thank You

I want to thank everyone who left comments on my last blog; they are full of encouragement, and It's gratifying to know my song is reaching out and touching the hearts of people even across the world (Australia can be considered across the world.. right? I've never been good at geography). Anyways, huge shout outs to Heavenly White Doves' blog, which now features my song along with all of the big name artists like Carrie Underwood and Queen! Also, the Memorial Music Library, who's page is viewed by thousands of people each year, and will spread my song (literally) to hearts all over the world--and not just to our family friends in Australia :). But, speaking of Australia, Funeral Celebrants Association Australia has forwarded my website's link to all of its members and made plans to add a blurb about me into their next monthly newsletter!

Of course, none of this would be happening if it weren't for my daddy. He's really the main person I haven't thanked enough at all. He is always the most dedicated and supportive person trying to get my song out into the world and hopefully, eventually, will create enough interest so that we can start selling my song and pay off all of the recording studio expenses.
Speaking of expenses, it would be amazing if anyone else who supports me as much as my father would be willing to sponsor me to help pay for future costs of recording my next song, currently entitled "Deja Vu," and of which will be recorded in October. My producer wrote the music, and started the lyrics. I finished them. This time, it's not as personal as family members passing away, but it is about my own personal Superman living too far away, and so until I can see him again, all we can share are words (mainly the ones typed onto the computer screen--you know our generation; haha). My mom and I found it funny how my first song was originally entitled "You're Here" and this next song's title could be, "You're Gone"; wouldn't that just be a great thing to see on the back of a CD cover? As in, not so uplifting... so we decided against the name for the second song.

Maybe some of you are wondering what I'm up to now; well, apart from getting ready for school, I have two auditions coming up. One is for Broadway Bound on the 4th, where I will be giving all I've got to try and snag another lead in either The Wizard of Oz or Oliver. I will audition for both at the same time, and the director will cast me in whichever show he thinks suits best for me. Cross your fingers i'll be Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, because that's my main goal. If anyone has any song suggestions.. I'm all open to hearing them. The other audition I have is for Peter Pan for Variety Plus theatre. This will be the very first audition where I don't have to prepare anything, because it will be a group audition, involving two hours of reading from the script, learning a song and choreography, as well as some improv movement. Wish me good luck especially on the improv, because that is the category I am least confident in.

Anyways, that's all I have for right now. Keep sharing my song with everyone you know, and tell them to leave comments, because I love reading them (obviously). :)
