Singing.

If you know me, than you know I love to sing. I sing to anything and everything: commercials, the radio, sounds outside, other people singing. My friends, mostly Eleni and my sister, use to tell me to stop singing all the time when we were young. They was just jealous! Ha. I remember my cousins making fun of me because they said I sounded like I was singing in a gospel choir, but none of that ever stopped me. I started to sing in some school plays we did, but I would never sing alone. Once I got in high school I joined my church's teen choir. The girls were all so talented and seemed so much older than me so I would hold back afraid that I wasn't good enough. As I got older I became one of the "big kids" so I started singing louder and my choir teacher started to notice that my voice had grown and developed. They would always try to get me to sing solos, but I never did because I was to nervous. I don't know what it is. I can sing in the car with all my friends, or sit at a restaurant and sing but once I get in front of people on a stage or pointed out I freak! Well for some reason this weekend I sang in front of people. Actually I sang at a bar in front of a lot of people. I went to the lake with Jami to see her parents. We went to Shorty Pants. There were 2 guys singing and playing guitar for people. Jami's mom had a few drinks and started messing with the 2 guys. They called her "mom". Well I guess he wanted "mom" to come sing and she didn't want to so I told her I would go sing with her, but it some how turned into just me going up there. Let me tell you she and the rest of the people we were with had never heard me sing before so it made me even more nervous because I could be really bad. Well I got up there and sang What I got, by Sublime. I didn't know all the words, but I new enough to have people hear me! I guess I was good because some lady came up and gave me a high five a few times, and Jami's mom was going crazy, but who knows they all had more than a couple drinks in them. I honestly can not believe I did that. I would have to say I am very proud of myself, and apparently in 2 weeks we are going back so I can sing again....oh great.
