I believe that I am the happiest person alive at the moment.
Papagena in Magic Flute
Countess in Marriage of Figaro
They changed the scenes that we're doing, so I'm not singing Pamina/Susanna like I had been previously hinted at. But I think I like this combination better. I love singing the Countess. Talk about a great character. Too bad I'm going to have to be married to Blake. And then Lauren Mulvey is in love with me. And as Papagena I get to be in love with Josh Hills and we talk about our future children.
Ah, how I love theatre.
And yay to Miss Libby Daggers who also got a part with a name. Woot woot. Remember, Lib? The Libby and Rachel Show? It's happening already.
I just watched the part of Figaro that we're doing... and he can't leave out the recitative. It would disrupt the whole flow of things. I plan on informing him of this come Monday.
But right now I think I'm too happy for words.
Sometimes I wonder why I want to do this as a career... and *this* is why. This feeling. This elation. This joy. This feeling of excitement and anticipation and accomplishment... I think it makes it all worth it- the lessons, the damn carrots in my mouth to try to loosen my jaw, the quacking like a duck, crying like a baby, picturing my voice like a funnel... it all seems worth it right now. Like everything in my life has culminated into this one feeling. Of utter happiness.
And we haven't even gotten the music yet!
I am such an effing dork. Really. Who gets excited like this over opera?
Rachel= loser
BUT
Rachel= happy loser
