Who loves to sing as a hobby here?

jean_rose @jean_rose (415) • Philippines 18 Mar 07

I love singing too even if I can't claim excellence on the field. It does serve as a therapy sometimes when it eases the heaviness on my chest through singing. When this happens, I choose songs with the highest notes and belt out...
