About a year ago, I had to spend a week in a hospital, because of the deadly food poisoning. There I met an elderly woman, who1to be a professional musician. That time when I met her, the idea of learning to sing didn't2my mind. I thought it was something3and not meant for me, like being an airplane pilot.
And only recently, I suddenly decided to learn singing.1 was4my dog early in the morning. I sang5to myself and it made me feel so wonderful. At that moment I6I had known more good songs and how to control my7better. And then I thought, why didn't I take some singing lessons? Of course, it was not a (n)8skill that I could use at work, but not everything in this life is about actual9and income.
It was easy to find that woman. I remembered her name and there was only one 10college in our city. I was11she would reject me because l was a terrible12. But she took my request very13. She understood how important music was14one's soul. In my first lesson, she sat at the gorgeous big piano and15some rising notes that I had to repeat. At first I was terrified to16because I feared being judged and criticized. But my teacher was kind and professional.17, she was strict when she knew I could do better.
Learning to sing was like learning to walk. It was like18that all your life you had some superpower but were not aware of its19. Singing taught me more than just being able to take some high or low 20. Most importantly, it taught me to be braver about expressing myself and my opinions.
