Rachels pov :
Today is the day we fly to New York City for Nationals and I couldn't be more excited or more nervous. I'm also in New York because I'm going to go and try out for NYADA Performing Art School . I'm so nervous I haven't thought about anything but it. I want to kill it so bad that Carmen Tibido takes me right on the spot . I've never been this nervous about anything . "Okay everyone here?" Mr.Shue asked . "Yes." We all said. "Alright Nationals here we come!" He said and we all cheered with excitement. I turned to Quinn and said , "Hey I'm going to get some sleep wake me up when we reach New York. " I said. "Okay. " She said. I took my pillow and got comfortable and closed my eyes and started to dream.
(Rachels dream )
I was in the auditorium sitting with someone and this slow sentimental music was playing. It sounded like My Man from Funny Girl. I looked around me and I saw nothing and then he came out . "Finn?" I said but he didn't answer me . He looked different than he usally does. "Hello Ms.Berry." A woman voice said out into the crowd. I looked out and said , "Hi Ms.Tibido ." I said nervously. "You can start now." She said uninterested. "Okay I'll be singing Don't Rain On My Parade from my favorite musical Funny Girl. " I told her and started :
( Rachel )
Don't tell me not to live,
Just sit and put--ter,
I stuttered and the music stopped .
"I'm sorry let me just try one more time. " I said I looked at Finn and something didn't feel right. I ignored it and went on :
Don't tell me not to live,
Just sit and putter,
Life's candy and the sun's
A ball of.... butter.
I stuttered again forgetting my word's and I had a huge lump in my throat . "I'm sorry Ms.Berry but you are an awful singer and a failiure at this business you will never be anything. " She then looked at Finn and said , "I want my 200 dollars now." She said. "This can't be happening ." I said.
(End of dream )
"Rachel, Rachel, Rachel wake up!" Quinn said. "Huh? What just happened? " I asked her. "We're here." She said . "Oh okay come on. " I said and we got off the plane.
