Have you ever done that thing where you forget that you have your iPod in and other people can hear you so you sing out loud and embarrass yourself?
I did that today. (Actually I do that a lot). And while I very much enjoy singing, I do not have a particular talent for it. Tone-deaf is the word you're looking for.
Have I also mentioned that people here stare at me when I walk down the street? Singing aloud in English really doesn't help me blend on the streets of the village.
Yeah.
So I'm walking down the street singing 2 Become 1 by the Spice Girls and I'm overheard by a group of students. Great!
"Julie! You sing beautiful! What a lovely song!" "Yes! So beautiful! Like you!" "Please sing a song in class!"
Apparently I'm unable to resist the pleading of adorable Chinese teenagers who worship me.
And that's the story of how I ended up singing Spice Girls a cappella in front of fifty students.
