to turn my car stereo to #11 so I can sing along as loud as I can and no one can tell me to shut up or turn it down, and no one can criticize my crappy voice.
When I taught 1st grade the kids were so cool about singing songs and I was comfortable knowing that they can't tell a decent voice from a bad one....as long as it is loud they love it. That was fun for me! We sang a lot of cool songs.
