Some of you may know that I run a little. Very little, but still some. I did manage to train and run a half marathon once. It was hard. Running takes a lot out of you.. What could be harder?
I'll tell you what.... it's singing.
I use my running muscles everyday. But I'm beginning to think I've never used my singing muscles a day in my life. Did you know that you have to use your hoo-hah, not use your head and be able to exhale for like ten minutes straight- from your belly, not your lungs?
I know though, if I can run (almost) 13.1 miles, I can get a hang of this thing. It's my secret little secret, singing well is. I've wanted it ever since that heartbreaking day many years ago when my Sunday school teacher made a blatant implication that I stunk at it. So I must do it. And do it I shall.
Even though it's harder than I had thought, it's incredibly fun. It helps that my coach is such wonderful company. You da bomb, Kelli! Ka-blooey!!
I'd ♥ to Sing Well! Well enough that people want to listen.
No - You're the bomb!!! I LOVE teaching you and hanging out with you - and YOU WILL GET THIS!! You are getting so much better each time! You're an absolutely wonderful student and I am so glad that you are patient with me! :) We make a great pair!

I wish you would have mentioned this in Okinaway! I could have given you lessons! Then we could have gone to Dona Maria or Obbilgato and gotten crazy full on Japanese Mexican food!
ReplyDeleteThis is AWESOME....you have grown SO much--spiritually, emotionally, and with the running-physically. You are such an inspiration! To read how you are doing something that is, especially to me, intimidating, is so uplifting and wonderful to see!! I hope you know that you are an exceptional person and again, I know Ive said it before, but, I love, love, LOVE reading your blog!!
