They always wanted attention, and were always acting! It was gross. I'm like, "do you have to be another character, or burst into song, just when we're talking? Can you have a normal conversation as yourself?"  Uh, apropos of nothing...

Queen Latifah does a fantastic version of Lush Life on the Living Out Loud soundtrack, as does Natalie Cole on "Unforgettable."

It's strenuous to sing. My stomach hurt after I did it.

I'm a very theatrical person, anyways.
I applied for the acting program, not the music one. It just so happened that I had done musicals and taken voice lessons (it was my grandmother's friend who gave them to me, but she died when I was 16 and that was it). I did a lot of community theater, too, along with the college productions. That's why I was hoping that I could possibly get a role during the Williamstown Festival. But, alas, I didn't.
It depresses me to talk about, though, because while I love my job for many reasons, it's not what I
want to do. Given the opportunity to study acting or find ways to incororate ugly duvet covers, I'm going to go with acting. I'm still bitter over all of it.
And I want mass love, anyways.
