Waiting,songwriting and playing

For me i am like at one stuck point in my songwriting to where the music needs a boost of encouragement i am like at my 9th song to finish and i got the lyrics wrote down yet i can't come up with the music like i wanted to before i got 2 more left to finish then it should be complete unless i want to write another one then i'll have more to write.

I originally started work on this album like 2 years ago and never could seem to complete it yet now i am like at the perfect time to finish it when the songs seem right for the album and i got the right combination and sounds.To me i am still a work in progress on this thing.I write the lyrics,music and image all by myself.I have idea's for all what i am gonna do with my music image and career that i had it 7 years ago and i already came up with so many idea's and back when i was 12 going on 13 back in 2000 i had started working on my first song i forgot about that and i haven't stopped since 8 years of songwriting makes anybody grow as an artist even myself i only let people listen to the songs i wrote back in 2003 and 2004 and that was like 4-5 years ago and now i am 20 and i have already accomplished success in poetry,photography,environmentalism and getting awards all throughout High School,graduated from High School went to College dropped out.

The first song i ever wrote was "Cross of Love" on piano then later wrote another song and was critically acclaimed a success by my parent's and my peers and the Internet community yet never did release them on any disc or anything for that was back 4 and 5 years ago and now i am writing totally different kind's of music not so much in the religious field yet more in the field that everybody can enjoy.I will reveal more about my music that i am working on yet the truth is the song's i write are amazing and will be released to the public either this year,next year or as soon after i get a record deal or get into the music business or self-publish my work.I am so glad that so many people thought and encouraged me to go try out on American Idol yet i so was like yah i might just do that then again i would be out for all the world to see and yes i don't want to get so known so fast and have the papparazzi after me and what i had done and yes i surely am gonna pursue the music i wrote and the career i am gonna do and my love for Brie even more.I am working on getting into a few movies so i haven't decided which one i want to try out for yet once i do and if i get a role in one then i'll let you guys and girls know yet for right now it's all about timing and which movies fits me best or what i want to do.

Livin' my dreams starting now

I have already had success with winning awards from both m y high school and also on poetry.com and as well offered a record deal at age 13 back in 2000,yet i turned the record deal down,yet guess what don't hold me back i am gonna get into the music business soon enough.I have to admit that i once wrote 100 songs every couple of years,yet i slacked off.I love writing lyrics,music and poetry.My musical aspriations range and vary.i love so many artist's.I will reveal more about them as i get into the music business.My poetry influences vary:In fact my mom is where i first found the inspiration to get into writing poetry and getting into being normal and feeling ok about writing and before i saw her write poetry i never had an interest i nsonsg a nd Avril Lavigne was the one i got writing all my lyrics and songs in a notebook.She is such an influence to me and i have so many varying from the styles of music from the light lcasscal to the upbeat and downhome style of country to folk rock and on.

Poems i won awards for and in fact.When i first wrote the poems i was into music and then i got a penicl i nm y and a blank notebook full of pages then i started writing i have been writing poems ever since 2004 and i kept on writing and i have already worte over 100 poems sicne then.It has been 3 years now since ifirst started.
