I was inspired and encouraged this evening when I actually had a deep down desire to practice my Strauss Lieder. I was even more encouraged when, after an hour of singing the same notes over and over, my voice was not tired, and I had actually made some pretty sounds.
I overwork the poor thing...when I work it at all. I'm trying to be so careful, but those damn vocal folds are just too sensitive. Usually when I'm done practicing I can't talk in the correct register for a good hour or two. That's not a good thing.
I am a little disappointed in myself because I just spent the last hour editing a stupid slideshow on myspace, INSTEAD of translating music. Good Lord, what is the point of this myspace crap? It's just so easy to get sucked in.
I'm so tired. My last couple of nights have been late ones, so I should probably go to bed soon. Mmmmm. That sounds kind of delicious actually. So nighty night. I'll translate German tomorrow.
