When you do Show Choir, you will inevitably get plenty of questions. Here are a few of them.
1. "So, is it like Glee?"
Yes. But no. Not at all.
2. "Do you guys dance?"
Yes. Hence the "show" part of show choir.
3. "Are you really singing or are you lip-syncing?"
Nope. We're really singing.
4. "Do you like your outfits?"
I look like I was drowned in Pepto-Bismol and then rolled in sequins. Would YOU like this outfit?
5. "Do you really need all that makeup?"
Do you want me to look like a sheet of paper onstage?
6. "What do you mean you have practice again?"
What do you mean you have practice for your sport again?
7. "Do you all get along?"
Sure, because any time you put fifty people in a room together for an extended period of time, it's always going to be sunshine and rainbows.
8. "Do you only date Show Choir people?"
When you're with them 24/7, it makes sense to date people who understand.
9. "Do you like your choreographer/director?"
They're like our second parents. I repeat. Do you always like your parents? But do they know what's best for you? Do you love them? There are your answers.
10. "Do you want to be a singer when you grow up?"
Just because I'm in Show Choir doesn't mean I want to be a singer. Could it have something to do with the leadership skills, group work skills, self-confidence, and many other skills that you gain by being in Show Choir and could transfer to any job? Probably.
