My first time singing on a stage...

My first time singing in public was the biggest challenge I've ever had in my entire life. It was at night and there  were a lot of people so, I was totally scared and nervous because I'm kind of shy and it's not easy for me talk in front of lots of people. I went to singing classes for 6 months and then the FINAL CONCERT! 

I was the 12th one of 24th students and when the student 11th finished her permance I thought: "I'm the next one!!!!!" and I felt something so weird, like I was exited but totally scared at the same time and I was shaking when I was upstairs and my teacher said: "Everything will be alright just relax and do it if you were alone!" but I was still shaking and really nervous.

Then when I start singing I was so afraid but going good and I sang till the end of the song. When I finished I returned to my sit and I wanted to do it again, it was one of my best experiences in my whole life.

The video that I attached is about me singing the song "The Climb" in a presentation the last year in my "Singing Salon". x)

Halloween

Meaning

Halloween means "All hallow's eve". Time ago it was used to celebrate the saint's day eve but things have been changing by the years and now people celebrate this like the day of the witches, ghosts and things related to them.

Origin

It started with the celtics customs and now the anglo-saxon culture celebrate Halloween as a holiday. At the beginning people used to celebrated as the Saint's Day and nowadays some people still celebrate it thinking about some dead people but other people are always thinking and relating this day with witches, ghosts and thigs like that.They look for some costumes days before the main day, also kids go house by house asking for candy.

I didn't know anything about Halloween but I consider it like a holiday that its meaning has been changing by years and know people are confused and don't know the right meaning but they still celebrate it, most of the time in USA.
