I just came back home from a very tiring day. First I woke up at 6 in the morning because I was feeling really nervous and couldn't sleep. I watched a bunch of YouTube videos on singing and copied the warm up exercises and ended up waking the entire house. Then I decided since it's an audition and it was getting filmed, I wanted to cover the 'chicken chilly tenders' on my face (a.k.a. Pimples). So I used my Revlon Colorstay Foundation mixed with Garnier BB Cream and finished with some powder, blush and lipstick.
Sheree came to pick me up and off we went. When we got there, there was already a lot of people even though it was still earlier than the official audition time. Everyone was so fashionable and talented looking and here I was looking like I was in my pyjamas.

Sheree already had a number so she went first. I decided to sing 'Defying Gravity' and she sang W by JYJ. I've been helping her for the past week and she has improved a lot. I'm sure she sounded amazing and I hope she gets in because it's one of her dreams but I'm really gonna miss her if she ends up going to Korea.

After finding some schoolmates and lining up in the hot sun, I made some friends while I was cooked to a 'well-done' steak. One of the guys I met came all the way from Melbourne without telling his parents. He's 17 and has blonde hair even though he was Chinese. It was pretty interesting to talk to him and some other people and I realised something amazing - I don't get nervous around guys anymore.
When I went inside to sit to wait for my turn, I felt really nervous. My friend Jojo was next to me and she must have been pretty annoyed because I kept humming. When it was my turn I went inside the hall and there were 6 people who were auditioning seated down, one judge, 2 film crews and 1 video camera. I positioned myself on the cross we were meant to stand on and sang, off-tune. So I had to start again and because I was so nervous I forgot to smile :( and I forgot to tell them to bring Big Bang to Australia. I got cut off at the end of my first chorus and that was the end of my audition.

Afterwards me and Sheree had lunch, took some photos and went shopping. Overall it was a really fun experience and I'm glad I decided to try something new thanks to a very inspiring speech at camp :)

Hey there! I recently found your YT video's and then started reading your blogs. Im happy to find someone thats my age and is from australia.
ReplyDeleteAlso I cant believe I didnt know about the YG auditioning in Sydney! Im a HUGE 2NE1 fan! Im glad you got the chance to audition though. Hope all ends well.
Dont foget to make more YT vids
Thank you for taking the time to comment :) I love 2NE1 too! And dont worry I will make more videos soon!
Deletehello! i was googling to find out some more info on the auditions and i came across your blog! i auditioned too! do you know how long it will be until they'll start making calls to those who make it through to the next round?
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure but I guess they will have to look through the audition tapes and then discuss it? Only the people who get in will know so I guess you will just have to wait :) hope u get in!
Deleteis it true someone got signed on the spot? were they really young? boy or a girl? wow so lucky..
ReplyDeleteYeah I overheard her friends talking about it :) she must have been really amazing
Deleteso do you know if anyone has been called yet?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, no. There's no one I know who have been contacted. And since they only notify those who passed the audition, the rest of us have no clue :( but Sydney is the first stop so maybe they need time to finish all the auditions before they decide who goes through to second round in Korea. All you can do is wait :( Hope you get in!
