Welcome to my Blog. This is Entry 2 of 4 for the event going on now on the IGG Forum: "Build Yourself a Special Blog Show." My topic is about my dream and story of wanting to be a singer. The topic for this article is the art of singing itself.

Singing is not easy. There's a lot that goes into singing. I knew this one very talented singer once. He was a friend of my parents. He once told me that singing is not just with your throat and mouth. Your whole body is the instrument that brings forth the sound. Your stomach, chest and everything works together. In the past I used to sing with just my throat and wondered why I cracked at some parts of songs or why I could not hit those high notes or why I could not get any louder. I felt so frustrated when i listened to these amazing singers in both the Media and in my own school sing like stars with ease. I discovered thanks to him what my problem had been. i hadn't been using my chest or my stomach. The lower stomach is like the base and helps push the sound up. It was hard at first learning to sing with my stomach and change my breathing patterns but it's been getting easier to sing. I still have issues with breathing during songs but I am working on it. Also exercising is important as well. I started doing some Yoga (hey it looks weird but it's awesome >_<) and I noticed my voice had gotten stronger and I could release it out with more ease. I'm no professional but a newbie with this stuff so I am sure there's more to singing then what I have listed here. This is just stuff I have managed to remember from others and my own experience.

Thanks for reading!
