I just got back from my voice lessons and boy was it a disaster! Well, sort of. I am having post-lesson pain at the moment. This shouldn't be the case, I know. But my throat wasn't painful at all when I was singing a while ago. Weird life.
Anyway, we finally chose the recital piece! Send in the Clowns won over Memory. I really like the former better since it's easier to memorize and my voice kind of glides on it. Memory makes me want to strangle myself. Haha! However, before choosing and singing the two songs, we touched the ensemble pieces. My part in Firework is too low if I sing it for a long time... and I will sing the entire song. It kind of hurts my throat so my teacher said that I should use a different technique for it. I'll try practicing it later or within the week if I remember it! I have to practice my ears as well. I have to make sure they don't go crazy! She said "okay lang yan" a few times a while ago. That translates to "you can still improve" or for harsher words "mali ginawa mo". I totally appreciate the different moniker though.
I kept on clearing my throat a while ago. Was it the stress? Panic? I don't know but it was really annoying! I had to keep on drinking water (which didn't really help a lot) to try to keep the phlegm away. Acid reflux problems. Boo.
My voice placement kept on changing too! So weird when my vocal cords do their own thing and scatter all over the place. My voice was airy at some parts. Gaaah!
So much to improve on! Not a good day for voice, I guess.
