  How I started my music life  In the age of aroud 5, I started to sing. That time I never wanted to sing any little piece of a song but my mother wanted me to sing even if I hate that. Due to her insistence I reluctantly got used to singing little by little.I think the main reason I didn't like to sing at that time was I was very shy and very quiet. I cried but she eagerly tried to take me to several music classes but I did not like any of them. But one day the music class of only one teacher accidentally caught my attention.Somehow I automatically came to the path of music.From then until today I have been studying music with great passion.
