I have put some thought into my life, and have decided that if I could have a do-over of the entire thing, I would pursue my dream of becoming a singer. Other than my obsessive love for music, I am not really a musical person. I don’t particularly have any outstanding vocal talent, although I can hold a note. A weak note, but I can hold it.
No, the reason I feel that I could pursue this dream is that it has become apparent in recent years that vocal and musical ability just isn’t a requirement to fortune and fame anymore. You’ll have to forgive my bitching on this matter – I guess I’m just baffled as to why certain people are even on the charts. I have no problem with different genre’s, don’t get me wrong. I’m not talking about taste, I’m talking about talent.
In fact, I have just now changed my mind: I will not become a singer. I will become a rapper – this is where musical standards are the lowest. One rapper I admire for talent is Eminem. While I’m not a fan of his somewhat distasteful lyrics, that boy can rap. Respect, with a capital R.
But since talent is no longer a requirement, I would get my bling on and become a rapper… if I could have a do-over, that is.
All right, that’s all I had to say.

P.S. Inspired by a conversation I recently had with a friend, who we shall name Ms. Toast
