Robbed

My friend was supposed to be the champion in a singing contest in school, but the wrong contestant was "declared" and they're too ashamed to admit it to everyone so they stuck with their decision which I think is BS! The supposed champion was not deserving at all. He sang easy songs, yet he never did justice to those songs, and his voice even cracked trying to desperately reach the high notes, when in fact, it wasn't that high at all.

I am outraged by this since the same thing happened to me when I was in college in the same school. They declared my contestant number but announced the wrong name, and was informed afterwards that I indeed won but it was "too late to correct it."

Livia was the brightest star tonight, and hands down, she was the best singer in the whole competition, but was robbed by the irresponsible organizers. Yes, organizers since they made the blunder and not a single one was willing to admit and correct it in front of everyone. I was running to catch the competition after our rehearsals, and though I was happy to see Livia, I was very disappointed with the results.

Singing

Day 19 of the 30 Day Challenge - A Talent of Yours

Singing.

I don't consider it a talent, but a gift given to me by the Divine so I can share it with others. No, I don't think I'm a good singer. I don't even consider myself a singer, just someone who loves music and who loves to sing.

I've been singing publicly (it started in school) since I was 5 years old, but started coming out of my shell when I joined theatre in high school. Ever since, I've been blessed to have been invited to sing in weddings, parties, company events, variety shows, TV shows and concerts. It's also because of singing that I've met a lot of new friends, some of which are from show business. Singing, though not really something I can make a career of, has given me a lot and made me what I am today, that's why I consider it a blessing.

There are also a lot of regrets I have had with singing, but those are things in the past that I can't do anything about anymore. I believe in second chances, and I believe that if something is really meant for me, it will be mine in His own time.
