This morning, I accompanied the high school choirs at large-group contest. The school we compete at is a pretty large one, though it is not nearly as big as some of the Indianapolis schools! The point is, I always arrive a bit out of breath as I follow the choir to the warm up room, through a locker room and down several hallways, up a few steps, down a ramp... I have learned to leave a little before the choir to reach our destinations so that I can walk at my own pace. After all these years, I at least know the way so I won't get lost.
Today I realized that, next year, I will hopefully not be out of breath! I may be able to go up and down the same steps on the stage as the choir without worrying how much longer I am taking! And I wondered: Will the other directors wonder where Kelly found that new accompanist? ;-)
Bucket List Goal#2:
A year from now, I want the audience to think I am a new accompanist.
Bucket List Goal #3:
Theater! I want to be able to try out for whatever part I want and not worry that I am too fat for the role. Too old, maybe-- Wrong voice part? Definitely a worry. But not my size. Never again.
