Show choir and choir had always been a big part of my High School career. I lived for performing. I got my first solo in seventh grade for the song "Seasons of Love" from Rent. In eight grade I was in a sextet with girls from my class and performed our song at our Sing into Summer concert were I also performed in the show choir. Up until this day i still love to sing. I had solos and duets all throughout High School. At the beginning of my senior year a really good friend had asked my to sing in her wedding. My family is a very big musical family. In three weeks I will be going back home to sing with my soon to be step-sisters for my mom's wedding.
Getting solos in High School has made me a more confident person. I know that not everyone is going to have to same tastes in things and that has made me more excepting of people. Just because one person doesn't like it doesn't mean someone else won't like it either. I have learned not to let the little things in life bother me because everything happens for a reason. No matter what anyone else thinks it's how proud my parents are of me and how i feel about everything that really matters.Being the confident person I am today makes a difference in what there is to come in my future.
Amy: I bet your singing will be beautiful at the wedding! Great story- I'm looking forward to reading your next blog posts as well. -Allie
ReplyDeleteAmy, that is neat that your family is musical, it sounds like show choir was fun.
ReplyDeleteSounds like your comfortable at performing in front of people and are used to being successful at it.
ReplyDeleteAmy that is a good life lesson to be learned and way to show off your talent that you have been blessed with.
ReplyDeleteAmy, it's awesome that you are so comfortable performing in front of people. That's a great skill to have in life. Also, it's awesome to have such a supportive family too!
ReplyDeleteAmy, I envy your ability to perform in front of people. I would definitely be too nervous.
ReplyDeleteWhenever I have to perform in front of people I tense up at first, but then relax as it goes on. As for singing, I keep it to the shower lol.
ReplyDeleteYou sound like you really enjoy show choir, choir was one of my worst grades coming up through elementary because I always hated it and wouldn’t sing.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you are very comfortable with who you are and how talented you are! That's is great
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome. Performing live in front of people is always such a blast. It is completely awesome that you still get to perform and have an outlet for singing. I really wish I still had one. (By the way, singing at weddings is awesome.)
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome. I remember high school choir and show choir and I can relate to your feelings about them. It was always so much fun!
ReplyDeleteThat's great that that you can perform like that in front of other people. I wouldn't be able to do that.
ReplyDeleteGreat story! I like how you have many events that you still sing at, keep doing what you love!
