Gonna be famous:)

Okay it is still just a fantasy. But guess what?! I recorded one of my songs today. It is the best song I have ever written because it is one of the only songs I have written for me. I was just sitting in my room listening to nevershoutnever and eating M&Ms and then my dad called up and asked me if I wanted to record!

I was so excited! I have been wanting to record some of my songs for a while but I have never gotton around to it. This is one I wrote on the piano the summer between freshman and sophomore year. My dad has a whole recording station thing in the basement. It is cool. First my dad showed me what I all had to do.

Then he set up a new track for me and I recorded my piano part. It was kind of challenging playing the piano without singing. At part I had to because I didn't know what came next. I messed up once but it wasn't a major error. Then i goofed around with the different sounds the computer did. There were so many effects and diffrent instruments I could choose from! It was great! Then we got it all set up so I could sing along with my piano. It was werid becuase I have never just sang the song without playing with it. I thought it was really neat. I felt famous singing MY song into a microphone! Ahhhh:)

Eventually my dad got it all put together and I have my first recorded song! I think I am going record all my finished songs and then put an actual CD together. Then I am thinking about sendnig it to record companies to see if they like me. I know this sounds alittle cockey, but this is something real to me. I don't have the major brains like my sister, and I can't control any electronic like my brother (though I always manage to majically fix the TV when it breaks and noone else can fix it) but I can sing, and write songs, and lyrics. It's a huge part of who I am and if I can at least try to get somewhere with what I am good at, I will. It's just who I am.

This is the song I recorded, but it is the very first version of it and it isn't complete in this video. This was taken in November 2008 so CHECK IT OUT:)
