I loved singing. That was the first time I felt a sense of achievement in my life. Cried and scream with overwhelming happiness when we were announced champion. I cried hard when I decided to leave the team to focus on my studies in Form 5. It was a memorable time. I had my first time traveling out of my town without my parents in form 2 because of joining this competition. I get to travel to places and enjoyed singing and performing and dressing up nice and winning some, loosing some and having lots of practices and everything. It was a beautiful time :)
And tonight, I stand in a humble little room singing with my strong alto voice, unsure at first but becoming more stable, stronger as I go. Then I remembered that I was once a singer, once a strong stable singer that holds everyone's pitch well. I never sing out of tune, I remember the exact pitch and will never waver after I really learnt it. Tonight, I sang bass because it was an all girl thing and memories of choir came back. Need some more practice to get the old juices flowing. It has been a long time. I've got a compliment and I am happy :D Might join college choir team if their practice time doesn't go irrational :)
Good times. Aye, Poet? ;)
