New dubs! <3
Recently I’ve gotten the chance to sing duets with some of my youtube idols. :3
These would be none other than Hitomi-chan and Celia-chan.
Hitomimi and I are dubbing Koko ni Iruzee. So expect it soon! 
Celia and I have our own dubbing account. Together, we’re Mirakuru☆Wish.
You can find us (and our dubs) here:

Please check out our voices!
School’s going well. I’ve passed with A’s and one high B in Algebra,
so my parent’s ungrounded me.
Yup.
Hello Again!
My brothers found out my youtube and gave it out to these guys in my classes.
Incidentally, these guys are the trouble-makers and negative-attention-seekers.
So, basically, they went around posting not-so-nice things on my youtube, so I was forced to delete and start a-new.
Here is my new youtube. Please add me as a friend (or subscribe if you like my voice <3).

I’m sick and on tylenol. And my voice sounds like a nasally Yaguchi Mari. High notes are hurting my voice….so yeah.
Today I want to tell the story of why I can never be a professional singer.
When I was 7, I mustered up the courage to sing the Star Spangled Banner in front of my entire extended family. All went well, but I sang it a key too high and my voice cracked. Everyone laughed at me, and I stopped singing in front of people for the next 5 years.
I was afraid that if I sang, people would laugh at me because I couldn’t hit high notes.
I tried so hard. I joined choir in 6th grade, and joined the soprano section, hoping that it would make me vocally strong. It made me anything but. I would come home and lose my voice because my choir teacher forced me to go up to high F.
I’m a mezzo-soprano. Even now I can’t go up to high F.
Eventually I quit. The teacher never gave me a solo, but gave other kids..who were TONE-DEAF (I’m not kidding here) solos. It really hurt my feelings.
I auditioned for several National choirs…but my voice wasn’t good enough.
What hurt the most was that all of my friends got in, but I didn’t
Recently, I auditioned for PureAmbition. That’s “The Best of Sekai no Melody”.
Auditioners had to sing a SUPER HARD MEDLEY that most of the PA members couldn’t sing themselves (so why give it to us?).
We had to sing, rap, and belt in Korean, Mandarin, and Japanese.
What surprised me was that the PA leader posted all her criticism on one post for all the auditioners.
I didn’t even get close to getting in.
“Really, it was bland. Your voice is bland. We weren’t impressed. We can tell you tried hard, but it wasn’t enough.”
I also auditioned for Avex.
Well, I bet I can make it past the first round
I thought.
I didn’t even get a call-back. And they hadn’t even heard my voice, it was just based on my picture and likes and dislikes.
I love singing so much…but it’s really something I can never succeed in. And eventually, I’m just going to have to give up on my dreams. I need to freshen up and face reality: I’m never going to ever be able to record an album in a studio.
Time for me to wake up and accept rejection.
