Once in a while your friend comes inside the room and says 'hi' with a voice so hoarse and croaky you wonder if there's some sort of tractor running up and down his or her throat. It may even be you sometimes.. Personally I love sore throats. At least when I get one. You're probably thinking, "And I thought I'd heard everything..." and shaking your head... but it's true. I love sore throats... not because of the constant itchiness about your throat or the continuous coughing or the colourless or greenish-yellow phlegm that's coughed up. No, I love it because of the voice. I've always had this thing about hoarse voices...probaby being one of the reasons for the music I listen to or the guys a "check out" (I never liked that statement. Can't a girl stare at boys who look cute/hot and not be someone who's checking someone out? That's so...tacky!).

I usualy hate my voice.. Not when I speak but when I hear myself through a mic or a recording or a video.. I've always wondered if that's how I sound. I sound like a little baby.. Anyway. When I get a sore throat my voice becomes all velvety and different. Different most of the time is good. And good is great! Problem is when I want to sing (And I like singing so much more with a croaky voice.. yes, I'm...unique) I end up coughing and coughing up phlegm at that. (Picturesque isn't it?) But I've always wished I could get a croaky voice for life, without having to stop every two minutes to spray infection everywhere. Just a thought..
