Karaoke Night!

The idea of a Karaoke night with friends was exciting! I was nervous because I knew I would want to sing, but would feel intimidated by my friends, who sing in professional bands! But what the heck! A shot was totally worth it!
We got dressed for the night and my efforts were channelized towards looking slim, I even chose black for the night...
Upon reaching, the place seemed a little dull and I did not know most people. The Christ College times anxiety was slowly creeping in my brain. Most people knew I was a shy and quiet girl. Bah! If only I had the guts to shed all inhibitions in college and show people who I actually am...But, better late than never!
I ordered for a cocktail, which my friend made a bet on. If I chugged the drink at a go, he would buy me any drink of my choice; call it greed, or the excitement of taking up a challenge, but i took the bet. Not to mention, I wont it too! I was honestly surprised at myself :P And my friend was too! He bought my favorite Cranberry Breezer!
The party was just about to kickstart and they were calling out for Karaoke registrations. I registered for Titanium. I had had the dream of performing that song since ever! I think, it began when an ex-christite, performed it at the Hard Rock Cafe`! I was in love with the David Guetta number ever since!
Turned out, that my Imbroglio friends had registered me for Mama Mia too! It was four of us at the mike, so none of us could really be heard :P Someone pointed out that one of us must do the lead part alone! I don't know what came over me, but I totally grabbed the mic and sang it all by myself! Music gets me going like nothing else does! That's why Karaoke is so special an act in itself, it makes you a star, it makes you feel like the performer you have always wanted to be! And last night, was simply amazing. Dim lights, spirited yet behaved crowd. People were enjoying creating as well as listening to melody! It was all so gorgeous.
Titanium and Mama Mia totally rocked and I felt as though the bathroom singer finally got her much yearned for outlet!
Somewhere down the line, last night also proved to be an outcome of the noetic science theory of attracting reality through thoughts. I had dreamed of such an evening a number of times and every time I screamed TITANIUM, I saw a huge crowd before me, cheering for me! Last night's reality was close to my imagination.
Karaoke night taught me the power of positive thinking, the ability to believe in oneself and never to feel intimidated by anyone, be it the most successful person in your field. You are unique and you are loved for being so! Amen.
