My Life
I want to start by saying that it is very hard for me to talk about myself but here goes. Before I came to Converse, I was always in the background. I was never nor did I wish to be the center of attention. Yes, I am a vocal performance major, but I'm shy which is a VERY big contradiction. I always did what my parents told me to do because that is the way that I was raised. I never talked back to them. I had a few close friends that knew how big of a kid I really am. And no, none of you have seen how big of a kid I am....yet. If you haven't noticed, it takes a while to find out who I really am. Most of you still don't know. Since I have been here, I have learned that it's okay to act stupid in front of people because there is always someone to be stupid with you. I have learned to be more confident in my singing. I hope to be a country singer someday. I know it's very different from my personality what with having a very big case of stage fright. It's the one thing that I have always wanted to do. It's the only “things I want to do when I grow up” that has stayed the same throughout the years. Don't ask me why that is because I don't have an answer for you.

I did find that contradicting at first at that you were so shy and were a performance major. But when I have heard you sing before so i know you can do it though. If you ever need any tips on anything though just let me know.
ReplyDeleteI think that you will be perfect for whatever you want to do. You are a strong person, shy or not, and you are a truly good person. That, to me at least, is really what counts the most.
ReplyDeleteYou can do it, Breanne! You can only get better at things as you go. I have stage problems too, but I know we can both get over our fears and be the people we want to be :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you seem to be becoming more able to talk about yourself. And make sure to talk with your voice teacher about performance anxiety A LOT--the only real way to get used to singing in front of people is to, well, sing in front of people. Have you considered looking for open mike nights around town and just getting up and singing a song at them? I have a hunch some of your friends might love going along to cheer you on.
ReplyDeleteI understand just how you felt when you came here, Breanne. I felt very shy and withdrawn when I first came here. But you have become a lot more talkative and open since I first met you here. I must admit your recent talkativeness has surprised me since I had gotten used to your quiteness, but I am very happy and pleased that you say more, and that you are more out there. And anytime, you are going to sing and feel anxious about it, I will come and cheer you on. Believe me, I get performance anxiety really badly myself. Best of luck!
