Pre-Vegas Thoughts

I packed up all my bags, and started my 7 hour plane ride to Vegas. Before this trip I had never been further than New Hampshire, or Rhode Island. I was trapped in Massachusetts and I was so excited to not only see my dreams come true, but also see the country in which I lived. So I jumped on a Southwest Flight and was on my merry way. I was ecstatic. Completely and utterly out of my mind happy. My dream ever since I was a 4th grader, was to be a performer. To feel that passion and self assurance, just like the talent shows, the christmas shows, and recitals. Or feel the inner rock star just like the New York Audition. My mind was buzzing and my heart was skipping a beat every time the pilot would update our location. As we approached our destination, I remembered my journey in the making. Only a 4 years ago, I was in my elementary school auditorium singing the national anthem. Now I’m one of 160 contestants on a National TV show. Who knew I’d make such a big step in my career at such a young age? All I did know, was I had my work cut out for me.
