Singing-->> More than a passion


Hi friends!!.. There are ppl who jus sing for time pass, bathroom singers and so on, well i am one such who belongs to this list.. But of late singing has turned out to be more than a passion for me.. I started singing when i was 9 yrs Old.. My parents used 2 send me 2 carnatic classes and in my part i was so sincere in attending those.. But i was unfortunate not to learn it properly and ended up just learning it for a year(I don even remember now what I learnt :P), i find it now to be the greatest mistake which I have made in my life L.. Though I stopped learning singing my passion towards singing has never been down.. Wherever I go and whatever the place be, I used to hum some song or the other and always on the touch with music and loving it totally..


School days are never forgettable J.. This incident took place when I was in my 6th std, I went for my school choir band selections.. Actually don’t remember what is sung, but the ultimate comedy what I did was I got selected and then came out without joining the choir & finally ended up getting scolding from my friends for what reason I went for the selectionsJ.. Then during my 11th &12th std my main pass time during our chem and phys classes were, myself singing songs 2 my friends of their choices(Sorry ppl I know how much u ll would have cried inside :P).. We used to go to inter college culturals but hardly there were singing competitions, but I did sing a few in some schools..


College has been one such place which has helped me in bringing out my talent.. Though I didn’t get enough opportunities to exhibit what I know, I got a nice set of friends around me who are always there to back me up and encourage me in whatever I have done!! [Thanks a lot ppl!! :)].. College has been the one beginning place where I was appreciated a lot for my singing.. I used 2 be so happy when my own class mates used 2 stand by my side always.. My 1st venture in my college was when I sang JUNE PONAL for my super seniors FAREWELL which I was appreciated for( well most of the occasions I used to sing the same song, sorry ppl just a reminder I can sing other songs too :P).. I sang in my College culturals, dept symposiums and Inter department competitions which has made me think singing more than a passion for me now.. I started thinking over to take singing as a new goal in my life.. I have attended many competitions like Airtel super singer, Athiradee singer, Top singer all ended up in vain.. Then I knew I was not up to the mark (Infact Zero :))..


These small small appreciations though they bought happiness in my life, something or the other made me re-think that i missed something big.. Yes the gr8 mistake I made was not learning carnatic properly, because when ppl say my normal singing was acceptable it would have be far better when I have a sound knowledge about the ragas.. There is nothing like a person has learnt everything.. Though I don’t know anything I have the thrive to learn it.. These shows have made me thing that learning and practice will make ppl achieve gr8 heights.. This is the initial stage of my life, I have started taking this seriously and I am very determined to achieve something in this field and started working on this to achieve something.. With full confidence and with u ppl’s blessings hoping so I ll become a singer in d nearby future :)..
