Much Needed Update

Wow, its been a while. I'm a little sick so this will have to serve as a quick update until I'm feeling better. Two weeks ago Camille and I went to Karaoke night at Dave and Busters in Santa Ana. It was a blast!!! We started the night off by stealing someone's table. They were saving like half the room, but its first come first serve so we plotted down. Some lady got in Camille's face while I was in the bathroom. No worries though. We ALL know Camille. She didn't back down one bit and we ended up sitting with a really nice couple from San Diego the rest of the night. How the Karaoke competition works is for the next few weeks two winners are picked each night. Then, there will be a sing off for all the winners. The Grand Prize winner gets to record a few demo songs with people from the music industry.

Well, that night Camille sang a warm up song and it went all right. She sang well and it was awesome to see her perform, but it wasn't a great song choice (all you American Idol fans will understand this). After watching other people's warm up songs, Camille decided to change the song she was going to sing. She was going to try and practice it to make sure it would work well before the actual competition, but time ran out. So, Camille was something like the eighth singer to sing...and she KILLED IT! I wish I could remember the name of the song she sang. She did amazing!!! She couldn't have done any better. You could tell she was enjoying herself too because she was dancing up there and getting the entire room into it. The night was a blast. The competition is a little screwy in that the top two winners are chosen by how loud everyone cheers. The top two people were having birthday parties and so, in spite of my thunderous applause and yelling, Camille wasn't chosen as top two. It was cool though because I could tell that the Karaoke DJ thought she should have one. He gave Camille more than one compliment about her voice. Needless to say we are going to try and make it back with a force of friends so that Camille can make it to the final competition!
