Although I continue my routine of norms....attend the university, report to the job, keep the boat of day to day sailing along....I indulge myself with visions of rising above the cycle! After a day of traditional routines....I take time out to feed my spirit by putting on a SPECTACULAR CONCERT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY LIVING ROOM!!....I go back stage to my walk in closet and sort through my COUTURE WORDROBE and select the most amazing SHIMMERING SHORT SEQUENCE DRESS and slide my size 7's into a GORGEOUS PAIR OF SILVER MANOLO BLAHNIK SHOES....put on my makeup and style my hair grab the remote control (a.k.a..MICROPHONE) pop in my PATTI LABELLE CD and GET THE PARTY STARTED!!!!!!.....RUNNING HOT! RUNNING COLD!...I WAS RUNNING INTO OVERLOAD IT WAS EXTREME!....SOME HOW THE WIRE UNCROSSED THE TABLE WAS TURNED NEVER KNEW I HAD SUCH A LESSON TO LEARN...I'M FEELIN GOOD FROM MY HEAD TO MY SHOE...NOW WHERE I'M GOIN AND I KNOW WHAT TO DO...I TIGHTENED UP MY POINT OF VIEW...I GOT A NEW ATTITUTE....WHEW! WHEW!...WHEW! WHEW! WHEEEEW!...I GOT A NEW ATTITUDE!
This is the very song I sang for America's Got talent auditions in Feb-2009...What a blast!!
What great fun pursuing the dream!!!...Intense anticipation waiting to see if this is the moment that changes my life....the following month (March) got the CALL BACK...didn't recognize the number...checked the voicemail a day later and it's AMERICA'S GOT TALENT offering a second audition!!...OMG!!!!!!....Drove to Miami for the second audition...TOTAL MADNESS....PEOPLE MORE PEOPLE THAN THE FIRST AUDITION! Magicians, Acrobats, The violin triplets...I call them the BLONDE BANDITS!....A 7ft drag queen impersonator, you name it...I saw it!!...Auditions were long and grueling arrived at 7am did not audition until 4pm....OUCH!....IT WAS WORTH EVERY HUNGER PANG I SUFFER WAITING FOR MY MOMENT...Today is May 27, 2009 and the last day of call back to confirm an offer for the show is between July1-10....Soooo, I am still hanging on to HOPE!...I can't say it enough...going for what it is you want makes you winner....sitting on the stoop doubting, and watching your life go by reaps in sorrow and regret that you did not have the courage to try!!!...There something deep inside keeps inspiring you to try!
Sincerely,
Don't give up on you!
