I really enjoy singing. Whether in the car, the shower, along with the television, or just a capella all alone. The only thing I hope, however, is that someone will tell me honestly if I suck at it.
I don't remember ever being told I sing really wonderful or anything. I get really nervous when put on the spot, but feel that I do have a voice and an ear for pitch and tone. In the last few years I've also increased my abilities by learning to sing harmonies. It really is just a matter of tuning your ear to hear the chords above or below the melody.
The Glee Project started up again last month. It made me want to pursue finding a local choir again. In the past, all I've found are groups that meet on Wednesday nights, and I'm already booked then. I did find a particular church that's starting up again in September and they meet on Thursdays. Maybe if I don't find another, I'll check them out.
Ideally, I'd be in a band rather than a choir. Although I get nervous, as soon as there's music put to the words and a group of people playing the sounds out loud, I just get excited and can belt it out. A backup singer would even be okay, I just think it would be a lot of fun.
The next time you hear me sing, please tell me if I'm terrible, okay? At least I'll know once and for all if it's worth the effort!
