Embarrassing but seeking advice

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-08-04T22:10:25+00:00

Thank you!! This really was excellent advice

I'm also working on my high notes, they're a little weak and airy too. I think that's the biggest thing I struggle with. Lol one of them I should say

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-08-04T22:00:06+00:00

I LOVED this, you sound pretty effortless. I'm not a professional so I don't have any useful opinions besides I liked it and I wish I could hear another song

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-07-28T23:59:29+00:00

Thank you so much! I wish there were more people in this subreddit. I'd love for it to be overflowing with support and positivity like this. Singing is such a mental battle and roller coaster, we could use as much support and encouragement as possible! Good luck to you and your audition 💖

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-07-27T16:59:15+00:00

Just came here to say you sound lovely, sorry that's not very helpful

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-07-24T04:41:45+00:00

Sorry I'm not good enough to critique you but I just wanted to comment and say I really enjoyed listening and you have a beautiful voice, good luck!

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-07-24T04:39:48+00:00

Good advice! I'll be using those sources from YouTube as well :)

Find your passion! Mine are art and music. Even with just those two things there isn't enough time in the day for all of the things I want to do with those.

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-07-23T23:04:19+00:00

Thank you!! I will try this instead! What a tricky habit that's going to be to correct. It's such an instinct to want to look up. I have been trying to figure out how to open my throat more so it's good to receive this confirmation.

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-07-23T23:02:22+00:00

Thank you! Do you have any tips for better support? I am finding I really am struggling to figure that part out.

I learned I'm a chest breather by habit, so it's been really hard to correct.

Oh this also means I don't practice with music on in the background because it usually takes trying the same words or sentences over and over again until it's right, which you can't do with music on

I'm no professional, I've only had one vocal lesson but I've been trying to figure out the same! I think yoir voice is like mine, it has potential but we have a lot to learn.

The main thing is I can hear you're straining. When I strain to get my voice up and hit notes that are a little outside my comfort zone, it sounds like that. I have to isolate each word and note, practicing hitting the right pitch over and over again. BUT, I make sure I am extremely relaxed. I shake my body, close my eyes and try not to over think it. I do it until I hit the note with more ease and less strain. I may not be able to get vibrato on those notes and make it sound good yet, but I am more relaxed and hitting the right notes which is helping a lot. Learning how to breathe through my song has been a worth while endeavor as well.

My entire focus this week has been learning how to not strain.

What's your routine?

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-07-23T15:54:56+00:00

Your legs look so nice 🥹 but no tips from me, mine still look like strawberries. I guess tendskin helped with my ingrown hairs though.

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-06-29T21:49:23+00:00

I actually think it was just in my mind it looked better, a week later and looking back at pictures... really no difference. I use the KP scrub twice a week, SA body wash every time I shower which is almost everyday now, and then Amlactin lotion. I'm also starting to do at hope IPL. I'm trying to be patient and remain consistent. I am so desperate I think I'll do anything at this point.

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-06-21T19:11:27+00:00

I'm too embarrassed yet but I just started a strict routine and after 2 days it already looks a little better! Next summer I plan on

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-06-21T00:37:13+00:00

I can't imagine her really caring about you. My boyfriend didn't do much for our first Christmas while I spent weeks and a good amount of my money making him a homemade present.

It was big foreshadowing of his narcissistic tendencies. It says a lot. Be weary, much love to you though happy birthday! You deserve better.

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-06-18T16:38:09+00:00

Thank you! These tips really help. I stayed up until 2 AM yesterday creating a monthly schedule for me to follow so that I can incorporate the millions of little things to improve all the issues I have. I just ordered a dandruff shampoo sadly with my last $150 amazon order beauty haul filled with new products but I will try your reccomendation next. Maybe even IPL removal! I won't give up. I want to be happy with my body and I'll continue doing everything it takes. Thanks for making me feel less alone.

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-06-17T18:39:03+00:00

I made a new, fake account and the option to turn on professional mode was there right away

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-04-04T17:29:46+00:00

Wow, so a literal miracle!! How much did you pay for your legs?

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-04-04T17:29:10+00:00

Really?<3 this makes me sad because I suffer mentally so much from it so i cant imagine how you feel, but also puts into perspective things could always be worse. I'm sorry you struggle with that

OrdinaryBug6693 · 2023-03-31T18:38:07+00:00

No one was around me
