Why 2012! Didn’t see you there… | My Singing Blog
https://sokkysinging.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/why-2012-didnt-see-you-there
The highs and lows of my singing journey. Didn’t see you there…. Disclaimer – I’m not going to make brave promises about updating this more frequently, because clearly I suck at keeping those promises! Last year I was very pleased with my uni year, and my outside of uni year. In uni, well, I:. Met great new friends. Got some excellent grades (2 A s and nothing lower than B ). Outside of uni, I:. Got to sing in the chorus of a gorgeous Handel’s Messiah. Settled down into my new city. I love new choirs!

Welcome 2011 | My Singing Blog
https://sokkysinging.wordpress.com/2011/01/05/welcome-2011
The highs and lows of my singing journey. Back for my first singing lesson of the year today – fortunately both my teacher and I remembered! I am going to miss my singing teacher – she was the one who got me to from the point of quiet mousey singer to someone who is now going to study singing, and in just three years🙂 Check out her website. For info on her teaching, and also upcoming performances. Here is the song, performed beautifully by Josephine Goddard:. In our lesson we talked about someone who wa...

I don’t know where to start | My Singing Blog
https://sokkysinging.wordpress.com/2011/06/27/i-dont-know-where-to-start
The highs and lows of my singing journey. I don’t know where to start. Do I apologise for lack of blogging first? Or do I come up with some excellent excuses first? It’s hard to type on my ipad! My fingers are too cold because Christchurch is cold! WordPress sometimes crashes the ipad browser! Those are pretty good right? Or do I breeze right on by those and just summarise the first semester? Christchurch is gorgeous still. Yes, shakey, but still awesome. And freezing. Did I mention freezing? I am sure y...

End of the year is nigh | My Singing Blog
https://sokkysinging.wordpress.com/2011/10/19/end-of-the-year-is-nigh
The highs and lows of my singing journey. End of the year is nigh. I have just my singing exam to do, and then my first year of this degree will be finished! I’m startled at how short the time seems, but also how much has happened this year. In terms of things to not do while you are trying to finish your year’s work, if you’d like some free advice, I would suggest:. Have your parents in law to stay. I am really focussing on my back muscles at the moment. The slackers. These are the same ones you...Blog ...

The highs and lows of my singing journey. I’m sure you know already, as I just had to facebook it, but I will be moving to Christchurch in February! In Christchurch I am going to start a MusB – Bachelor of Music (I just love how they put the Mus in front of the B! So I went with the first two. I’ve spent all morning trying to figure out what courses I have to take, and what courses I want to take – unfortunately a couple I wanted to do aren’t available this year (Chamber choir! I would LOVE to link these...

Sarumata: Vistaprint - small Mansfield with Monsters banner
http://sarumata.blogspot.com/2012/09/vistaprint-small-banner.html
Thursday, September 13, 2012. Vistaprint - small Mansfield with Monsters banner. So apparently I can 'share' a design from vistaprint. Not sure what that means exactly, but I really like my $9 Mansfield with Monsters poster (printed on lightweight vinyl), so here goes:. I don't know if this will let other people order one, just show off the design or what, but I'm happy to have one of these hanging on the wall in the office at home. I'm reading: Vistaprint - small Mansfield with Monsters banner.

Quick post… | My Singing Blog
https://sokkysinging.wordpress.com/2011/01/07/quick-post
The highs and lows of my singing journey. If you haven’t seen this yet, have a watch! Alfie Boe (awesome tenor) singing Nessun Dorma in Matt Lucas’ (Little Britain) kitchen. Makes me smile and squee and wish (not for the first time) I was a tenor. Damn awesome tenor arias. OOH and as Jenni has pointed out the singing part is MUCH LOUDER than the talky intro, so turn it down or your ears will fall off🙂. Laquo; Welcome 2011. Before you’re perfect…. Date : January 7, 2011. Headphones. Now deaf ;p. Is it ok...

First lesson at uni | My Singing Blog
https://sokkysinging.wordpress.com/2011/03/03/first-lesson-at-uni
The highs and lows of my singing journey. First lesson at uni. First singing lesson that is, as classes haven’t gone back yet after the earthquake – which was terrifying and each aftershock leaves me full of adrenaline I can’t use! I and another new voice student had our first lesson together, and we went back to basics, just trying to control our breath and make the right sound. So my exercises for this week are: (let me bore you, but I need to record them somewhere, and why not here! Now, I should prob...
