week

This was a really hard week. Wondering if I would be laid off, if I would be able to still take a trip of a lifetime, if I wasn't laid off , which of my friends would go?

People I really liked working with are gone, like they disappeared into thin air. Layoffs are a strange thing, there is no closure process. People are just gone.

I tried to take the impending doom the best that I could by doing the following:

I had my first Karaoke experience (pictured) at a local Korean Karaoke house called Feel. It is one of several karaoke houses in Koreatown. Read more about Koreatown here . I love places like Feel, there are several in the area, because it's you in a room with your closest friends, singing away WITH NO STAGE. Think the karaoke scene in "Lost in Translation".

I have always been too shy to sign the karaoke, but I figured hey, why not? I sang Oasis' "Wonderwall", "Sweet Caroline" by Mr. Neil Diamond and back up on "Twist and Shout" I thought it best to start with the classics that everyone will sing along, so they could drown me out. Next I'll try the hard stuff.

Karaoke is good for stress.

I also attended a comedy/music show put together by Asher and some friends. I'll save that for another post, as this post is getting a bit long in the tooth.

What is your favorite song to sing at Karaoke? You know where to email me at.
