you know what? i'll be honest about something. . . . .

i started singing when i was 6 years old. honestly. i dont know how to sing those days.
but my dad and me really wanted me to sing. so. he enrolled me to center for pop. singing lessons.
my first day there. i had NO IDEA what im gonna do. the first thing coach kiko asked me to do is to belt out. i had a hard time. the coach was nice. he never laughed at me when i did bad. :)
but. after a few belts..say..10 above..i finally got it right. so he told me to go to the stage and
he gave me the mic. the first song i sang there was "to love you more". but the first song i ever sang was "pagdating ng panahon" :)). after class. me and my dad. we practice everyday.

as time goes by..my coaches and family, noticed that i was getting better. :)
so. i continued the lessons. then. i had my first practicum. me and my classmates. we are
required to sing 1 fast&slow song. then i reached level 2. then i had my first recital. like my practicum but we had to sing more songs. then i reached LEVEL 3. this level was hard for me.
this was the level where i actually had my first concert. it was so hard. we were only three.
and i was the only girl. so. i sang like 13 songs. every song. i had to change my gown! then i had to run to the other side of the stage. after the concert. i saw a big "blue magic" gift in my dressing room. i read the message. it's from my family. it was a teddy bear! its big :)). they also gave me flowers. then. we ate at kfc :)). know what? the day after the concert.
i lost my voice. but it was no biggy. i just drank luya and everything was ok.
i stopped lessons. because of school. :(

grade 4. lasalle idol. i was super happy. it was ok for me if i didnt win. the important
thing for me was to have fun. i didnt expect anything :o.

honestly. after grade 4. i lost my singing voice. :((
my dad was super disappointed and sad. coz i didnt sing the whole summer.
he made tampo to me. :(
i kept on telling myself.. "what the heck am i thinking? why didnt i sing the whole summer? why did i ruin my dream? why? why? why?"
but then. i realized something. i realized that. .
my parents specially my dad. they payed so much for my singing lessons.
he really wanted me to become a singer. i wanted to become a singer.
its my dream. my dad's dream. my parents payed a lot just for me to develop my voice.
so i told myself. i had to get my voice back. now. everyday. i grab our magic sing.
and i sing for 2 hours. i dont want to make my family disappointed again.
i had to follow my/dad's dream.

im not shy to post this here. im not shy to tell you i lost my singing voice.
so what? its the biggest mistake of my life. and its my fault. so i should not be ashamed of it.

if you're dream is like mine. to sing. dont mind what people say about you. at least you
had fun ;). i dont want to sing because i want to be popular. i dont even think that i want to be popular. its hard. the reason i want to sing is because singing for me. . , , singing is love. :)

we all have dreams. and you should do everything to reach it.
me. even though im having a hard time to get my voice back. i do everything i can.
coz. if you really want something to happen. you'll really do everything to make it come true.
i dont give a damn if i look stupid or if i sound horrible right now. coz i know that all of that will
give me what i want. coz i want to follow my dreams.

there's beauty in the breakdown
