Karaoke Thursday

All week I had been looking forward to Karaoke night by recruiting others to join Karaoke night.  I promised our group that I would sing a song.  After looking through the songbook, some of us girls decided on singing Wanna Be by Spice Girls.  As other people at the bar were performing their songs, there was a t.v. screen showing who was up next and how many other people were to perform in front of you.  I saw on the screen the name Caitlin.  Everyone in our group went along saying “that is weird there must be another Caitlin here.”  I agreed and kept scanning the crowd trying to figure out who looked like a Caitlin, yet alone, even spelled their name the same.  When it was time for Caitlin to perform everyone started chanting Caitlin and pulling me up to the stage. Wow had I been fooled. It was me that was supposed to be singing.  Some of my friends went and registered me for the song Barbie Girl when I was not paying any attention.  Yes, I said it Barbie Girl.  I knew I would look like a fool if I didn’t go up on stage when the announcer kept calling me up to perform.  What did Caitlin do? I got up on stage and rocked Barbie Girl.  I might say that it was somewhat embarrassing because I had no one to sing Kens part, so the announcer helped me out.  It was also humiliating because I did not even get ready for the night picture this; I had my hair pulled back and glasses on.  I am sure everyone at the bar was judging me as the girl who wants to be Barbie however she is in glasses and not rocking the Barbie life.  My friends did tell me that everyone in the audience was getting into the song.  However, I beg to differ that’s what friends are suppose to say!
