A few years ago I became very interested in contemporary a cappella music, so I started to learn how to beat-box. I went online to learn some basic sounds, including a vocal delay effect that sounds like a very convincing echo. Then, I just listened to music and practiced mimicking drum sounds. Since I've been at this beat-boxing thing for a few years, I now enjoy using it for a cappella music or even as an "interesting fact" when I introduce myself. I have a lot of fun putting smiles on people's faces when I make convincing drum and echo sound effects with only my mouth and voice.
Today, I am grateful for this random skill. I am grateful that I've been able to learn it, develop it, and use it to brighten someone's day.
