Creativity - Hiraeth

A couple weeks ago, me and my classmate - Adrian, decided to set up a band. Both of us really like music; I sing and he plays the piano, so we thought that a music band will be a great way to develop our talents, hobbies and become more creative.
A month ago there was our first serious rehearsal, so we met in his house and began to work.
As we're going to paticipate in a band competition in November, at first we decided which two songs we want to perform. It turned out we will cover "Can't help falling in love" by Elvis Presley and "Stay with me" by Sam Smith.
After that, we divided the parts of every song, decided about the arrange and... started to sing!
After a moment I thought to myself; "What a disaster, we will never work it out.". But I didn't say a thing and kept trying. It was really hard. It turns out that singing together is way harder than doing it all alone.
Happily, we decided not to give up and practice regularly. After a couple of rehersals I can say that we sound like a real band and I'm proud of it! Of course there's much work in front of us, but we're motivated enough to keep on working and developing ourselves.
I've learned that you should never give up without putting much effort into something you really want, even if at first you're convinced it's not going to work.
