Im keeping my fingers crossed!

So tonight I auditioned for the musical "Oklahoma" with the Pensacola Little Theatre. I had to prepare a song, so I sang, "On my Own" from Les Miserables. I had practiced the whole day before with Aunt Gwen accompanying me, but nothing could prepare me for how nerve-racking it was to sing in front of EVERYONE there...especially when I followed all these women with amazing operatic voices!! I also knew that when I got there, they were going to teach us a dance and we would have to do it...I just had no idea we were only going to be shown the dance a couple of times, and then thrown into the lions den! It was soo scary! Ruco got to stay throughout the whole audition and watched me do everything, so at least I had that comfort. He really is the greatest...never criticizing me, but always encouraging and pushing me. I really am so lucky to have such an amazingly supportive and sweet husband! Well, everyone keep a finger crossed for me, I get a call tomorrow to let me know whether or not I am to come in on Wednesday for what they call a "Cold Read"...I learned so many terms tonight, like who knew I was supposed to also bring my "character shoes?" HAHA! If anything, this is definately a fun learning experience to see what the whole theater world is like!! Good night!

Good Luck Kristi! I'm crossing my fingers for you! I'm still waiting for you to sing it to me! Hey, but look on the bright side...if you don't get a call back, Ruco takes you to dinner and you have more time to spend with him and if they do call (which they will), then I'll be coming to watch you in a play! YAY! Love you!
