4. You pick karaoke songs based on the keys they're in.
5. Even if you’ve lost it, you once had the ability to translate this, with just your voice, into music.
6. Every now and then you find yourself singing warm-ups in the shower.
7. And sometimes, out of nowhere, that song you sang in sophomore year just pops into your head.

20. Of, if you're a guy, a freshly pressed and brightly colored button-up.
21. Fainting mid-performance was a very real fear you had.
22. And you knew that everyone was going to get a little stir-crazy right before the show.
23. You went on more auditions than you can count, but they never got less terrifying.
