"Can't dance, can't sing, but always feel like you wanna." My mom summed up my life's story with these few words. After going to Greek Sing at Grove City on Saturday, I got to imagining how great it would be to be able to sing well. And I'm not talking Britney Spears level where you can sing enough to get a record deal, but your albums are so electronically altered that you sound more like a robot than a human being. I want to be able to sing like, say, Jennifer Knapp, for instance. I know some people might not know who Jennifer Knapp is, but she is a Christian singer who I've seen live enough times to know that she really can sing. I just think it would be enjoyable to be able to sing along to a song at the top of my lungs and know that it sounds good when it comes out.
As far as dancing goes, I really like watching good dancers. Since my mom is as unartistically talented as I am, I blame my lack of ability on bad genes. Yes, it is fun to flail around to music and dance as a joke, but boy would it be even more fun to dance and know you look sweet doing it. I think I need to clarify something, though. When I am talking about dancers, I guess I'm referring more to hip-hop style rather than ballet or ballroom. Sure, those styles might be just as difficult, if not more, but I like things that have a bit more bounce to them.
So, if I got one wish in life where I could bless myself with a talent, my first choice would obviously be singing. And if the talent Genie decided to throw in a freebie, then my life would be complete when I grooved to the beat. :)
