Day 18

Today I just had 30 minutes of practice because I had to pack boxes.
(Moving out and into new place). No fun!!!!!
At least I was able to do my 30 minutes but I had to cancel my private class which was a little annoying!
I have 3 more weeks to go till the determination of my job!
I am so happy I did it. Now I can start focusing on the things I really want to do!
Because my days have been crazy long.
Waking up at 6.30 am and finishing work by 8.30pm. It is hard after such a long day to find some energy to do the things you really want to do.
I think to pursue the career that u really want u need to put a hundred percent or even more into it!
So that is what I am trying to do! The 30 day challenge kinda woke me up!
Thanks so much!!!

Good night!

Day 17

Just came home from my dance class at BDC with Debbie Wilson!
Was great!
I practiced a full hour (warm-up) plus some harmonies and octaves.

Then I had an hour of voice training with Karina Kardaschewa.
Right now I am singing "Voi che sapete" by Mozart so we are trying to even out my voice for all the jumps within the melody. It is very important for Mozart.

I am so tired and am falling asleep.

Good night!

DAy 16

Wow. I decided to quit my job to focus on the main things in life that make me happy!
Life is too short to do things you don't really want to do!!!!!!
Big decision! But I like the thought!
Today I took a jazz class with Debbie Wilson at BDC.
I had a voice lesson with Karina Kardaschewa and I practiced for myself for like an hour.
Finally I got that baby grand from Korg to work!

Feeling very tired and will go to bed now!!!!!

Good night!!!!

Day 15

YEEEAH!!!! SO HAPPY!!!!!
I did my community/ charity event today! I volunteered at the Aidswalk today in Central Park and it was a great experience. I met very nice people and have already signed up for next year!
Tomorrow I will upload some pictures.
I practiced my voice for an hour and then I played the piano for a bit.
Next week I will start to practice for my recording session.

I am so excited this whole thing and will def make some changes in my life to live and do the things that are really important to me!

Thank you so much for that great opportunity! My friend who is a psychologist loves the whole idea of challenging yourself for 30 days.

Have a good night!!!!!

Day 14

Today was a great day!
I was able to take Jazz with Debbie Wilson and then Jazz with Ginger Cox.
So happy that I was able to have a 3 hour workout today!

I practiced some harmonies and am still trying to get those high whistle notes.
Then I practiced on the song I will record. So all in all I practiced nearly 2 hours plus my 3 hours of dance.
Really great Saturday.
Just ordered some chinese food with my friend and will get some things ready;)

Tomorrow I will have to wake up veeery early for my charity event.
It feels good to finally get into the groove of the things that really made/make me happy.
Used to be very good at it and then always got distracted.
Even after this 30 day challenge is done I won't stop writing a blog. It helps me to analyze my whole career way easier!!!!

Thank you and have a good night!

Day 13

Ahhhhhhh it is finally working and my posts that had been vanished are finally back!!!!
I got so crazy over this last night!!!!!

Today I have practiced one hour. I am working on my whistle notes to be able to do a decrescendo with my voice. It is pretty tough.
Debbie Wilson doesnt have to get a surgery so I can take many classes with her the next 2 weeks!!!!
Yes! I tried to schedule some lessons with Kurt and still waiting for an update!

I finally received my baby grand from Korg!!!! But I won't be able to unpack it before Monday! ;-(
Sunday night I will go and see a show. I would love to see the new musical from the Southpark guys. Heard it is sold out but I will check on that.

Off to take a ballet class at BDC with Silyantev at 7.30pm.!!!

Day 12 (Yesterday nothing worked!!!!)

The blogspot website isn't available for hours now. So I couldn't write anything on my blog. But at least I can write something here. In the am I was able to post a picture from my early lunch though. Mesclun goat cheese salad with caramelized walnuts. yummy. I did a 20 minutes warm up and then I practiced 40 minutes on the new song I want to record. I went for a run in CP and feel pretty exhausted today, since I work full time (12 hours a day) while doing this plus next week I am moving 2 times. Sunday I will have my charity event and over the weekend I will take several classes to make up for the time during the week. I will copy this post and try to paste it to my blog. Have a good night everyone!!!
