Sound of Music audition-- soon!?

I have already asked a question on how to choose a song for my audition, but I'm pressed for time and I have narrowed it down to these, which I am comfortable singing:

I Enjoy Being a Girl -- Flower Drum Song

I Am Sixteen Going on Seventeen (although I've already been convinced you shouldn't sing songs from the show you're auditioning for)

I Know Things Know -- Into the Woods

Tonight -- West Side Story

I do know that the last two aren't very relevant to the character I'm aiming for (Louisa, 13), but I've finally decided I need to sing a song I'm comfortable with. I need help choosing which one to sing... if you have a better idea for me (upper/mezzo soprano) then please include it! :)

Update:

I also have looked at "******** Optimist" and "My Own Little Corner", however not too sure if these would be my age group.

    I Enjoy Being a Girl -- Flower Drum Song

    or

    Tonight -- West Side Story

    Out of those two I favor Tonight because Luisa is a mischievious girl and to an extent so is Maria. Otherwise, you still want to sing something that shows off your voice and leaves a good impression so if you already have something you sing well, go with that. If not, other suggestion are:

    My New Philosophy - You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown

    Astonishing - Little Women

    Gee, I'm glad I'm no one else but me - Anne Of Green Gables

    The facts - Anne Of Green Gables

    Green Finch and Linnet Bird – Sweeney Todd

    How Lovely To Be A Woman – Bye Bye Birdie

    I Want It Now – Willy Wonka

    good luck!

    I'm a massive fan of the sound of song. I've obvious it 1 instances! My thought for the track, is "the sound of monitor" or "my favourite issues." the song "the sound of track" is two mins and 30 seconds. The song "my favourite matters" is one million minute and 30 seconds, provide or take a quantity of. (: I are not able to believe of any monologue's correct now, but when i do, i'm going to support you to appreciate! P.S, which you'll in addition do the track "edelweiss" (said a-del-vise)

    I think 'Tonight' could be a good possibility - you can portray quite a lot of emotion easily in this song and its a valid choice for any age.
