Yes, I exaggerated a little. A lot. But still, it suffices.
As I said before, I'm a musicaltheatre student (Hence the drama). And if you know how theatre works, you know actually getting ón stage is not that easy. Well, at least not for me. Believe me, I work hard and I am good enough to be up there, no one ever told me otherwise. But still no internship to show for it, all I hear is: 'Your audition was good! But you're just not the type we're looking for.'
That sentence, right there. It is the one sentence that can bring your mood from a happy, nervous state to a sad, blue, why-me-tragedy. I give myself 10 minutes of self pity every time someone turns me down, that is normally all it takes for me to turn that blue state into a more realistic one.
But lately I've been sinking into a very light, and very dramatic, depression. Not something I normally do, I only cry when I'm watching a sad movie. Titanic, the Notebook, the Lion King, Fox and Hound. The last one is the worst, when she leaves the little fox in the woods! I still cry like the 5 year old me who saw it for the very first time on Christmas eve.
But I'm drifting off.
I (recently) got out of the sad, depressing state of being. Thank God! I was about to kick me in the butt.
This because I have amazing people around me who assured me that sometimes it takes a little time to succeed in following your dreams. And although I am well aware of this, it doesn't hurt to be reminded of that every now and then.
And for some extra inspiration I went to the quote-page on Pinterest. Beause sometimes, a good repinned quote is all you need:
So I'm getting back in there and I will show that I belong on stage! Watch out world, here I come!
(Ok, the sad part is gone, but I'm still very dramatic. Oh well, it comes with the job prescription I guess :) )
Xx!
