Be my baby, Santa.

So, I've been sick for the last couple of weeks, with a sinus infection that just won't leave! While I've been given antibiotics that should kick the infection, they've only cleared my nose. Apparently, you can re-catch a cold, I did not know this. I've gotten the same cold three different times in about three weeks. Awesome, right? Well, colds make it awfully hard for someone like me to function properly. You see, I LOVE to sing, and when you're in as many choirs as I am, having a cold tends to throw things off. Choir/voice lessons these past few weeks has been a nightmare! I don't sound completely awful, but I can't breath right and it's just no fun.

At my last voice lesson my instructor, Doc, got a call from my choir director. She wanted to know if I would like to sing Santa Baby in the winter choir concert, as a solo. I freaked out inside. That is my favorite Christmas song, and it is my dream to sing it for someone, anyone! I just ran up to Doc and gave him a hug, "May I sing Eartha Kitt's version?" I asked,

"Only you would know who that is!" Doc replied.

I told him that I'd find the music, and start practicing right away. Even though I can't sing right now, I've been looking over the music and learning the words. The piano part is really interesting, and hopefully I can find a few tenors to back me up.

What a fabulous way to begin the end of a cold streak!
