pretty quiet week this week if you ignore whatever the hell is going on with our bathroom toilet, which has a diagnostic issue we can’t troubleshoot and which has flooded once this week. calling maintenance once again to see if we can figure this out so i don’t have to plunge every third time we flush (ironically it’d be way easier if we just had to plunge every time–but it’s the times we don’t that make this extremely bizarre)

      Ahhh, the self-doubt that drives people who excel in their areas to continually strive to improve even more… I don’t mean to be dismissive, but I think this is a feature of your passion & determination, and these things carry people far further than raw aptitude alone.

      Had typed out a longer reply but Memmy ate it. Apologies if both appear at your end.

      Let us know how it goes.

        Now there’s something I can relate to.

        I know that everything will probably be fine. It’s just that I’ve seen so many people despairing over voice training. I don’t want to feel despair, I want to be happy, so that always makes me worry a little bit. I’m willing to put in as much effort as it takes, so fingers crossed I do well. :)

          Well, I’m back. The first session went really well! It was mostly just boilerplate stuff, but I’m feeling a lot more confident now that I’ve actually taken the first step. Finally, some homework I can be excited about. 😅

      Oh, I’ve been there. I hope you found a good coach. Mine moved away just a few months after I started, but I learned soooo much and he was very inspiring. Saw your first session went well - congratulations!!
