Lately, I've been having a lot of "what if I can't do it?" moments.
I recently got the lead in our school musical, and it was my first time auditioning for this school's performance (I transferred in as a sophomore, and I'm a senior.)
I feel like I'm letting everyone down because I'm having trouble getting the dances. I'm a singer - like, majorly. I sing opera, that's what I'm going into - and I can act rather well, I think. But I don't dance. I can jazz dance and ballet, but not musical theater. It's just not working, lol.
I also have a lot going on. I have a couple scholarship auditions coming up, another performance, and that, and I'm in the middle of two competitions, all vocal. I always worry that I'm letting the cast down because I don't think I'm that good. I can't get rid of any of my obligations. As it is, I never see my boyfriend. I have a date tonight at like 9, after work, and this is the first time I've seen him out of school in the past 3 weeks or so. Any ideas as to how to fix my confidence issue and/or the stress problem?
I think you should try. If you can't do it than just try to have fun. If you really hate it than quit. I don't think you should quit. Try to enjoy yourself. But if you have a lot of other things going on than you have to make up the decision to stay or go. Maybe try to find some spare time to practice or take lessons. I don't think you should quit because than your letting your school and yourself down. Wish you good luck.
(Rating: 5) I couldn't quit if I wanted to. No one else can sing the part, and I signed a contract. Lol I'm stuck. Thanks =)
