— 1 month ago(March 03, 2026 04:43 AM)After like 20 years of like not knowing what to do trying to do like singing, being a good dancer, being really good, an instrumental, instrumental, music, always having been pretty good at art and keeping up. Like I actually took singing in college. And when I came home at the end of that year or a half year, my dad was showing me a magazine article and it was of an opera singer who is not very old maybe in her 40s And her parents were good singers and they taught. So she was born around 1960. She’s from a nice place in the US. So she’s really good at singing. The funny thing is when I listen to her. It always sounded different every time in a good way. Like I guess some girls can copy old records. Some girls are just in the system of being a good student in college and happy. Maybe they sound old to me though. I’m guessing they just didn’t sound like the records. Maybe some didn’t even play piano or something. So like it seemed like it was all about people like her, you know the very famous Sarah Brightman., And then like there was this violinist I found you might know possibly Petra Mullejans. I mean when I was in college there was so much of a rush like even in high school to RDB like in high school a really really good advanced student in music supposedly and not just like maybe played more than most people. Like someone you’re in college there was a rush maybe not to be the only one in magazines, but like to be in. I know I saying and always wanted to take lessons. In college I learned it was about translating songs and just pretty much practicing it over and over. And you’re supposed to bring in dance. So it’s not like aside for my exercise. I guess I would be learning two more instruments a lot. So like me not really doing opera now at age 39. It’s like why would I start now? I even gave a piano for singing and looked at stuff on iTunes. Like I was always about these ladies in their 40s when I started college. But like this dream fantasy was soon over. It was about like people working hard who were like slightly younger. Harder and harder and looking cute in that way instead. And then the kids of the ones in the magazines and just may be a little older and more nourishing maybe coming out as a replacement. Mystery indeed. So it’s just ironic that I wanted to do this and like my whole life it’s been about them coming up and maybe just seeing lucky ones not real people who just like it. Like it’s like for me. It’s nothing. Also, I have a big competition and along the way I feel like I’m being watched. Like you can’t be like I did try harder. I was the better student. I had good taste in music. I had some experience. Like there’s like no shot. And I know like I couldn’t be like her and be seen all these angles for old classical music. So I thought about I was just interested where I stood and it seemed like it would never be talked about. No one talk to me about it much. I have to become a voice major first. The only reason I didn’t like it was because I did things like dancing I guess. But the funny thing is I also play the piano. I just can’t focus with these people. I mean, I don’t know what I picked was more like a job. It wasn’t academic life. I don’t know if I’m gonna stay. I just wanted to get in Hollywood. So that got in the way even more. Wasn’t that funny I was in music and like even ballet as a minor in all these years I couldn’t figure anything out and specific things happen. But what I like most is just enjoying life online. I do still wanna be someone by kind of put Hollywood is number one and I still do all this other stuff but like I’m also looking at majors now I’m in the Northeast. What am I actually gonna do? Actually I don’t know. I’m kind of not wanting to go back to college yet. I just feel safer so I mean, I don’t know I might take a general studies class just to get out of the house.
