Okay,I love to sing and I don't think I am that bad. I would maybe like to become a "singer" when I meet friends. What can I do to help my voice be better? Like what to eat and drink what not to eat and drink, what exercises do I do?

Hi Mark! I am a singer and i hope i can you useful tips. You can extend your breathing by doing exercising your abdominals by inhaling then hissing it out. When you sing, always lift your soft palate so as not to strain your neck. Get support from your lower body and not from your neck. The correct position of the mouth in singing is the position it makes when yawning. Happy singing!

I wish I knew...because then I would be a better singer. Maybe gargling with lemonade? lol...just kidding. Not smoking would definitely help.
