Is it normal to practice singing in your apartment?

I feel especially self-conscious going through vocal warm-ups since my neighbors could potentially hear me. Is it normal to go ahead and sing as much as you want in your apartment, at times when people probably aren't sleeping or anything, without hiding in a closet and hanging blankets around you to muffle the sound?

    Just sing loudly and proudly and don't care so much about what other people think.

    I do, usually in the bathroom though. I too am afraid of my neighbors hearing me.

    Yes. But, if you fear instigating their revenge from your sounds, you could try to find another more suitable place to practice.

        Not really a good idea if you like to close your eyes while you sing…

        But then you look utterly ridiculous to everyone outside your car.
        I'm sure you've seen people stuck at a red light with all their windows up singing their hearts out, only you can't hear it so their enthusiastic mouth movements look hilarious.
        I know what I do.
        I flip through all the radio stations trying to find what they're singing to.

          My dear, I am that guy, that's me 90% of the time I'm driving.

          I'm at least listening to music, and at the most I'm changing the lyrics into some retarded freestyle for my own amusement

          And sometimes fate will just do that for me. Like when I was some chunky monkey looking girl dragging trash can in her pjs to the street, while at the same time the radio was playing "American Woman" hahaha priceless, doesn't help there is tons of grunting in the song too
