Last night was the start to 1 week off with convention being this weekend. Which I am super excited for. I have been working without vacation since January and haven't made a sunday meeting this whole time. Which has been very taxing on my spirituality. So I am COMPLETELY looking forward to this weekend. It will be the boost... Nay the Push I need right now. I have been doing by best to study and make all my Wednesday night meetings and praying a lot. I have been doing much better in the last 3 months then i have done all of last year. So heres to a fun weekend.
Karaoke! What else is there to say. My dads side of the family has always been very musically talented singing wise. I have been around music and singing my entire life but have never really been into it that much. Since the beginning of March however since discovering Karaoke at the local Tavern I have been enjoying it more and more. Using this time to hone in on my musical ability passed down in bloodlines from my dad. Every opportunity to go and do Karaoke I will take. Realizing I don't just go sing for just the enjoyment of the atmosphere and because I know people won't make fun of me there; I go as a release. Singing is a window to yourself that can only be discovered this way.
Since discovering my love for Karaoke I have gone to a few different places and usually get a pretty good response form people. There is The Tavern in Duvall where karaoke is run by Dj Zube who is a really cool guy. Then there's Tiki Joe's Wet Bar in dowtown Kirkland. Karaoke there is ran by one of my uncles long time friends Tiger, so I have a blast down there. Finally Last night thanks to my friend Izaac, I discovered a place that does Karaoke every night. It's in downtown Redmond and it's called Palmers. Karaoke there is run by this guy named Big John. I guess he has been doing it for a long time. Not my favorite place, but still another place to go sing at.
I am now getting to the point where I need less and less "liquid courage" to jump up on stage and sing. It feels great when people cheer and clap for you. I do admit its kind of a confidence booster for the rest of the night, and keeps me going. When I'm done singing I cant wait to pick out my next song to sing. Finally when the night comes to a close i say my goodbyes and head home and start counting down to the next Karaoke night.
