My mum has a huge scar on her back from when she got a collapsed lung ( conveniently she was working in a hospital at the time). She has convinced a lot of people it is a shark bite, which living in Australia is not that far fetched.

As a young classical singer I have to agree, the fact that I recently went to an audition with 2,000 young singers trying for a few places is comforting. There is a lot of love for the arts out there.

I am in opera so slightly different dress standards, but my stage craft teacher has always said, for women, before 5pm cocktail dress but have knees covered and after 5pm go full length.

I come from a wealthy lucky country, in 2011 I was in Cairo when everything there broke out, I was stuck there for about 2 weeks. I was lucky that I was able to get out but some of the things I saw are things I will never unsee. When I got home I found it very hard to consolidate the two side of the world I had seen, how can I take someone seriously when they are complaining about their boyfriend troubles when there are people in the world being killed by their own government? I don't think I will ever be able to understand that side of humanity and it has taken me years to come to terms with vast difference, but how I see it now is that I am happy that those people have had such blessed lives that their worries are so small.

I am sorry for what you have experienced in your life and your losses, I am glad you have found a place to be safe and start again. Germany is a great country I hope you love your time there.

It really depends on the theme of what I am singing. I do have a met gala like crazy yet beautiful dress but I wouldn't wear it while singing somber songs. It's just a matter of keeping it all appropriate.
