I'm Still Standing

Chapter Two

June 09, 2020

I was talking with my friend Ally, after work finished. I started to work part time at this coffee shop called 'The Little Sunshine' after I left Brian. I still sing and do some performances here and there. After I left Brian I had dropped out of university. A few months later I decided to apply for a different university, one with a better music program. I now live with my two cats and my roommate Ally, who works in the same coffee shop with me!

The coffee shop had just closed and we were cleaning up to head home. When we finished and were heading to the parking lot at the back for employees. As we were walking I noticed a poster was on the side of the building. It was a poster saying that Lady Gaga was holding auditions for backup singers for her Triumph Tour. "Oh ya I was gonna tell you about that, but it slipped my mind!" Ally said when she noticed that I was reading the poster. "Are you gonna audition for it?"

Am I? Can I really sing with a famous singer in front of millions of people? 'It's a tour about triumph Cassie. You should do it', said a voice in my head. "Sure I'll audition, but I can't say for sure that I'll be one of the lucky people to get picked", I said while taking a picture of the poster.

As I get into the car I think about everything that happened in my life so far, from Brian to now. My life is back on track. I definitely feel better then I did before. If I had to say something to Brian I would say that, I'm Still Standing.
