Karaoke is not enough - I wanna be a rock chick
I had this strong urge to be a rock chick as I left the house last Saturday to catch a play with a friend. This is something I've always quietly dreamed of, on and off, but it seems like the passion is really firing up now.
I realise that if I can't find much meaning in work (everything about the job is, frankly, nothing much to complain about except for the lack of meaning), I need to find it outside.
I really miss performing, the adrenaline I get before going onstage, and the high when I'm playing with the audience. That high is something I believe one can't get from doing anything else. Fellow actors and singers, you know what I'm talking about. You can feel it rushing through your blood. I remember the days when I used to juggle rehearsals with studies and still managed to do my homework and get the grades I wanted. Maybe I can do that now, except that the circumstances are different. I'm a working girl, I have less time on my hands. But knowing I have that little time will mean I'll treasure every precious moment and use it to the fullest, which hopefully translates into a slick performance!
The question now is, how do I start? Anybody needs a chick in your band :P? I once did Kelly Osbourne's Papa Don't Preach. But no, I don't look or sound like her, thank God!
Am really looking forward to the day when I can fire up the stage with like-minded souls, free spirits who dare to dream the same little dream I have. Till then, I'll keep dreaming and searching for how to make this real.
