                     "CAN'T GET THE HANG OF THIS"


     Well, not many people know this about me but im a singer. The reason no one really knows this about me is because i'm still lowkey shy to just open my mouth and sing. But if you known me for a while you would know that i've came a long way. I always sang on my own in my room and stuff, i didn't let not even my family hear me. But my dad would always hear me and he would tell people like omg how embarrassing. But i am grateful he would do that because people would tell me "sing sing please". One day i finally was bold and posted a cover of the song "titanium" on my instagram... i instantly deleted it after 2 minutes because you know me, superrrrr shy. But then i got a DM from my friend named brian and he basically hyped the heck out of me and said i sang soooo good and to post it back up.. and i did and that day i had gotten so much support from a lot of people. 

      What sucks was that it was a start but also the end. I never pursued with it, i just stopped there because i was so worried about other people's opinions i didn't realize that i already sounded beautiful to the man above. It literally took me 3 years to finally get over my fear and put my voice to work. But before i finally committed to it there was a lot of trial and error. I would go on stage and not feel it and just quit. Or i would get so nervous that my voice would not come out right and would  sound like a dying chicken. But thank God it all changed on August 2019, my Pastora gave me a mic and pushed me onto the stage and told me "sing you can do it, God gave you this gift because he knows you're more than capable" and well i sand and i felt so so so good. My voice came out nice, i was on tune and beat with the band, it was like meant to be. 

    Ever since then Me, Tony, Val, and Alex worship on Wednesdays. We are the worship leaders at my youth group. And don't get me wrong, i still get so nervous, and my voice still cracks or goes off beat or off tune but it's okay. Why? because i overcame the fear i had within myself and now i still go on stage to sing because it's my calling. I also started the piano to help my voice out, i even recorded a bit of me playing and singing and my crush swiped up LMAO. But yea, its weird to say this but im a singer, and i have nothing but room to improve and become the best version of myself.
