WAIT! I forgot!

How could I forget my other secret ambition? To be able to sit around a campfire/bonfire/fake fire/fireplace, strum my guitar and sing popular songs that everyone knows the words to. On second thought, it doesn't have to be near a fire. But times like those are when guitar stringing cover song singers like me fit in the best.

Of course I have a beautiful guitar. I used to take lessons and they were going really well, but the instructor asked me to bring in music that I wanted to learn (which I did - Jack Johnson because I can sing his tunes really well...in my car at least) - and instead, he made me learn some song from the 80's that I had never heard of. It was an okay song, but not really. Not what I wanted. I lost motivation and I let the lessons go. He was GREAT teacher though, which makes this whole thing a bummer.

I've never really let anyone hear me sing. Except for my sister when I was little, and Scott every now and then. But despite us having been together for over six years, I have yet to really let him hear me sing. I'll belt out a tune as a joke here and there.

I want to sing at the top of my lungs! And now I'm at the point where I think I may suck and it's all in my head. No, I'm not awesome. But I have a versatile voice that would rock a campfire song. Come on!!!
