When I was in the sixth grade my teacher asked everyone in the room what they wanted to be when they grew up. Now being as shy as I was (and still am) when I said I wanted to be a singer everyone. And I mean everyone, I think even my teacher gasped. It may have been a surprise not only because I was shy but because at that time I was the school bully.

In high school I was in a few plays and musicals and I was in the all 4 of the choirs. But at some point in time I became realistic about fame and life. I realized that I might not ever get my chance at fame and I can't waste my life just wanting to be famous.

After I graduated I got a real job and enrolled in college. But now that dream is coming back. I love to sing I always have, my mother told me that when I was really little I used to sing and dance to tv commercials but when the shows would come back on I would walk away from the tv. I still have fear of performing but I also love the adrenaline that comes from fear so I suppose that goes hand in hand.

I guess to prove to myself that I still have the chops, I am in the midst of phonetically teaching myself Habanera from Georges Bizet's Carmen. Before I decided to do this I thought the opera was in Italian and not French. The whole idea was a bit on the ballsy side but I have faith in myself I am really good with audio anyways through repetition I can learn almost anything. I have also learned that French is really really hard!
