[Insert gigantic scream of frustration here] Sigh. Sometimes I wonder why I kill myself for an audition, when the directors always seem predisposed not to give me the part. I love singing and I love my chorus, but it's a major bummer when the solo parts are announced (less than 6 days before the concert no less!), you didn't get one, but everyone comes up to you and says you should've gotten one.

Of course, the director himself is the target of part of my angst -- not because he didn't pick me, but because he waited until right before the concert to tell us who got the parts. Ok, rant over. I think. I may rant a little more later, probably privately. Rant rant. Heh.
