Third Post 2-12-15

           This week has been going pretty well. I have started the voice exercises and practicing my singing everyday. I naturally tend to sing in the car with the radio. I haven't been working on the makeup, but I have been finding some different styles and ideas for it. I have found them on Pinterest and YouTube so far. Since we have a break coming up I plan to definitely practice my makeup more and do more singing. I have a whole week to make more progress.
          So here are a couple of the makeup ideas I might do:
     Beautiful Neutral Smokey Eye Makeup - Winged Eyeliner - Lashes - Dark Red Lips
I like this idea but I don't know if it would look good on me.
My favorite would have to be this one, but it is going to take a lot of practice:

Show Your #DisneySide with these Disney-Inspired Makeup of Mickey and Friends #MinnieMouse


Wish me luck!

Second Post
OK so this is my second post and I know it is late but oh well. So the teacher commented on my first blog and she asked me a few questions so I am going to answer them.
     1. What did you accomplish this week?
                       This week I really focused on my singing project. I talked to Ms.Conrad, a teacher that Mrs.Teknipp recommended I talk to. She suggested that I go on Youtube and look up some voice exercises, she also recommended that I go talk to the music teacher. I haven't done that yet, but I have been singing more and it has improved a little.
      2. What are you working on right now?
                      Right now I am working on catching up on my work because I have fallen a little behind.
       3. What do you plan to do next?
                       I plan to start working on the make-up aspect of my project and I am going to try to find out who the music teacher is. I am also going to practice singing more and start recording myself sing.

First Post

             Ok, so this is my first post and I am at a complete loss. I am not sure what to do for my 20 Time project. I have a couple of ideas but I am not sure what to choose. So, I am just going to pitch them out and see how it goes.
            
            My first idea is learning to improve my singing and write more of my own songs.. There is a story behind why I may choose this. I have been singing since I was a little girl.I mean, who didn't sing when they were little. I didn't realize that I had a voice until I was in 6th grade. My problem was, I was to shy. I still am shy as a matter of fact. I would never dare talk in front of a group of people, and I would NEVER sing in front of them. Back to what I was saying though, I used to sing in gym in 6th grade. It was me and like 3 other girls. In 7th grade I decided to sing in the talent show. My mistake, singing with a girl who could not sing. We didn't win, but she was my friend so it was fun. By 8th grade I knew I could sing and I was going to try to sing in the talent show again. This time I sung with my friend that actually could sing. We won first place! That was one of the happiest days of my life. Then, the worst thing ever happened. I couldn't sing anymore! Now, I still cant. So, I might do this so I can get my voice back.

            My other idea is learning to do makeup professionally. Now, I don't wear makeup, but I love to do other peoples makeup. I have been wanting to do make-up professionally ever since I was in the 7th grade. This Christmas I  got a make-up kit and I have been practicing ever since. So far it has not been going so well, but I am making progress. I would have to find people to actually do makeup on.


         I just don't know what to do. I am at a complete loss. Maybe I don't want to do either of these ideas. Maybe I will do both.
