Resolution!

I'm not a big fan of New Year's resolutions. Mostly because people make them about trying to be less fat. Perhaps, I'm jealous. After much thought of what I'd really like to accomplish this year I think I've finally got it. I want to learn to sing.

Yep, you heard it from me. I want to learn to sing. While I was growing up I always linked singing with prancing about on a stage and all the stuff that went with that. The people involved in choir at my high school, were, not my type of people. For some reason fun, to them, was dressing up in a costume and singing some weird song with the hopes of kissing a girl or boy that was also prancing about in a costume. Because of this I've always thought singing was weird and never really have tried to sing.

I think this Christmas was also an eye opener/unspeakable abomination. I attempted to sing for our family talent show it was bad! I even have proof. It was recorded. Admittedly, it was half in jest. However, there was more truth to my performance than I would like to admit. Hence, my motivation to stretch my vocal chords and a new found burning desire to find and destroy that tape.

Going to church has helped, I know what music is suppose to sound like. Not enough, but it has helped. I figure if I try to sing one song and maybe even start going to ward choir, I might get better. I think I might even have a pretty good singing voice if I train a little bit. Here's to 2010 and Tyler "Dylan" Smith.
