KARAOKE
A lot of my friends say they
feel embarrassed when they sing in front of people, but I don’t think it’s
embarrassing at all. People are so worried about what other people think that
they can’t have fun anymore. I think it’s crazy. When I get up on stage, I just
forget what people think of me.
Last year I entered a karaoke
competition in my home town, Wicklow, and I won a place in the national
championship. I was excited! I went up to Dublin with all my friends and family,
it was fantastic. There were some brilliant singers there from all over the
country and I didn’t think I had a chance, but in the end I won second place. Was
I embarrassed? No, I wasn't !!!!

Commentary :
Based on article, I thought
that Shania Brady was right. We shouldn’t be embarrassed to sing in front of
the people. I mean, I know that almost people shy to do that. The reason is
maybe because their voice isn’t good enough. Is it guilty if we could be able
to sing for expressing ourselves? With doing karaoke we’ll be able to sharing
fun times with friends, or cheering up our friends who sad or upset about
something. Karaoke is all about having fun times with yourself, your friends
and of course to let off your steam. Who cares about what people think of you, there
are always people who always talks behind your back, all you have to do is don’t
think and care about it and just have fun. What’s the point if you do care
about the people think of you and because of that you can’t just have fun? Shania
Brady taught us to be ourselves, confident and believe to ourselves, and of
course don’t think too much about the people take opinion on you. So look at she,
she conquers her embarrassment and won the second place of national karaoke
championship.
