My true passion

I know that almost every little girl dreams of being big,but I feel so passionate about this topic.I have always been known as the smart and talented daughter of Brenda and Larry Loyd that sings in church and never missed a day of school in her life until becoming sick in tenth grade. I made my first B my senior year in high school and was destined to be great. Although I was destined to be a doctor, which everyone knew as my passion my heart has cried for something different for years. I have sang in church since I was able to speak clearly and this has always been my passion to be this great singer. I know that singing in church is totally different from singing in front of thousands of people. Church is like and extension of family that is going to support you and love you not matter what. In church I never had to worry about rejection because HELLO people it's Chruch. The day that I was granted the oppurtunity to sing for Ms. America Erica of 2003 I knew that my passion would be put to the test. It was at a Governor's Program on Abstinence convention in Baton Rouge, La. There were thousands present and believe it or not it was much easier to sing in front of these thousands of people that I didn't know as opposed to the twenty that I sang in front of at church that I knew well. This was one of the most memorable days of my life and I still have this passion and hold it dear to my heart. At one point I gave up on this dream because I thought that was all it was " A Dream" and I didn't know how to break into it. Then I realized that a true passion never leaves and even though I plan to be a doctor my heart has a song that keeps lingering. Who knows I may be the next American Idol. I plan to try out next season. Lets keep our fingers crossed.
