nekosenseiUp until this week, I used to think that my voice was not as pretty after the pulmonary embolism. Yesterday, I turned on the Karaoke machine and played around with it. Then, I got it into my head that maybe I should try recording a song or two on my computer. I chose Bette Midler's "The Rose," which is a relatively new song for me. I think I tried singing it once last summer and gave up on it. Anyhow, I recorded it, played it back, and discovered that my voice was not as bad as I thought it was.
Of course, drinking hot tea while screwing around with the Karaoke machine helped too. One of these days I'm going to have to get my hands on some Red Zinger Tea. When I was in high school, a bunch of us used to drink that with honey and lemon juice whenever we had a cold because it was supposed to be good for you voice and it could help you get through a performance.
And I'm sure that taking out the Karaoke machine and practicing every once in a while won't hurt either. I think that's what's hurting me the most, that I don't practice as much as I used to because I'd usually end up getting frustrated and quitting.
