My Big Solo(独唱)
The day had finally arrived: the day of my big solo. Everyone was there; my mom and dad and my little brother. And it was a big event: the Spring Fling Choir Concert. The whole class was dressed up.My name was on the cover of the program in bright yellow characters. I couldn't believe it when I saw my name. Not that it was my name, but that it wasn't Renee's. Renee and I had been classmates since kindergarten. She was always ahead of me. Dance class needs a big finish? Renee was picked. The school plays? Renee would have the leads while I was cast as her mother or sister or neighbor. I even played her dog once. The only time I ever came in ahead of Renee was at roll call(点名).Cindy comes before Renee. I count that as a victory!
The choir concert tryouts were stressful. We waited in the library as Ms. Jenkins called us individually into the choir room. By the time she called me, I was shaking. When I came back to the library, Renee smiled at me. Ms. Jenkins called her name and Renee calmly followed her. She was still calm and smiling when her tryout was over
When Ms. Jenkins announced who had made the special choral group(合唱队), I wasn't surprised when Renee's name was on her list and mine wasn't."So, what else is new?"I said under my breath Sudden clapping brought me out of my bad mood. Everyone was looking at me. I've missed something here, I thought. Ms. Jenkins smiled at me and said,"Cindy, you will have to start practicing with me.The solos take extra preparation." Solo? I got the solo? I glanced over at Renee. She smiled broadly and gave me the thumbs-up sign. Oh, that's another thing. She is always so nice
Now the day had come. We filed onto the stage and took our places. I was front and center. Ms.Jenkins raised her baton(指挥棒)and we began to sing. My parents were smiling at me, cameras flashing.
