00:00 I wanted to be big, like all my life, and now that we're here, I feel like being so
00:08 young and being on a huge stage like Carnegie Hall, it is definitely nerve-racking.
00:15 You know, even though I'm in a choir, am I good enough for this and am I
00:22 fit enough to be able to be in my shoes?
00:28 So I'm missing prom.
00:34 I didn't know what to do at first, because I didn't know how big Carnegie was at first,
00:38 and people were telling me, "Go to prom!
00:40 Prom is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
00:42 And I'm like, "I should definitely go to Carnegie, because that's what I want to do in life."
00:48 So I had to make some sacrifices, good sacrifices too, because I love doing what I'm doing.
00:54 It's like, I'm so excited to perform.
00:57 I just can't wait to see people's facial expressions when I turn that stage up.
01:02 I can't, ugh, I cannot wait.
