Just karaoke?

i was singing karaoke with Tai's family a couple nights ago. what's the big deal right? i mean everyone sings karaoke from time to time. the big difference is that i finally felt comfortable. i didn't get the feeling that my face was getting flushed, or feel sweat coming on. my voice wasn't shaky, and i didn't stutter at all. i was actually comfortable, which is a really big deal in my case. i have always been nervous in front of crowds, even around my own family. i was shocked, and proud of myself.

after i had sung all of those songs, i just had an overwhelming feeling of joy. holding that mic in my hand, and hearing my voice amplify on the speakers was such a rush. i wish i could sing all day.

i'm considering showcasing my voice to a larger crowd. I dunno...maybe a karaoke bar, or this amature show that i've been getting emails about. then maybe wedding singing...then maybe i'll have the courage to audition for american idol someday. all i know is to me singing=happiness.
