From Vocals to Computers

Below is a video of me singing one of my favorite songs: I See God in You By: India Arie
I have always had a strong passion for singing. Every day I find opportunities to practice my talent. Whether outside, in the shower, cooking, walking, or in between class I always find time to sing a tune. Perfecting my talent took a lot of practice; I took singing lessons, recorded songs and did several performances. I try to apply singing to my everyday life. The motivation I show when I’m singing is something I am going to use going forward in this program. Even though music is my passion and I.T. isn’t the techniques I used to get good at my craft I know I will find useful in a classroom setting. Even singing out my new vocabulary words or putting them on a CD and playing them back to me to try and make them stick in my memory will probably be useful. I want to excel in my classes like I do with my singing, even though I know it’s going to take much more practice and dedication then it would with music.

  1. I would love to hear you sing! I enjoy singing also but I'm too shy to perform in front of lots of people.

  7. When I tell my friends about Year Up and how it is, I usually end up talking about the people. I tend to mention you and your singing; moreover, I've shown some of your videos to my girlfriend and friends. They all really like your singing. I can't wait to see more videos on your blog and on your YouTube.
