Howdy.

Where do I begin?

Grease. I've been watching Grease. A lot.
Why? I'm auditioning for a part in a play (or musical, to be exact).
It will be Grease.
Why? I like to act. Its fun.
One problem.
I. Can't. Sing.
I must practice...
Why didn't I say yes to my mother when she asked if I wanted singing lessons?

But the whole singing thing has tortured me since the 5th grade. I tried out for the elementary school play, and I didn't think anything of singing. I didn't practice at all. Then it was my turn to sing. I started to sing "Happy Birthday", and my voice sounded like a frog's croak, and I begged them to let me start over. They did. They gave me at least 2 tries before I sang the full song. When I was done singing, I just knew how badly I blew it. I ended up getting narrarator. And being the whiney, sensitive child I was, I quit the play because the other narrarators gave me a hard time and made fun of me.

But this year, I tried out for the PLAY (not musical), and got a part. An awesome part, too. (I don't want to sound like I'm bragging.) Lucky me, no singing.

Hopefully this year for my singing will be different. Hopefully.
