Once Upon a Time, There Was a Girl Who Wanted to be a Star ★

How many people can that title fit to?
Millions. 
I used to want to audition for American Idol when I turned 16.
Then I realized how much of a joke American Idol actually is.
Now I just resort to singing publicly whenever someone will let me. 
Music is my life. 
Don't be sold by my preppy facade. Along with being obsessed with Glee, Beyonce, Adele, the Script, and Natasha Bedingfield, I listen to hard core rap. 
Yesterday I sang two verses of 'Wild Horses' to my American Lit class. Someone told me to audition for Wayzata Idol after I finished. That was the best statement I could ever hear.
I've realized that the only thing I actually do during my free time is hide in my bedroom with my ear buds in and belt to music. It's actually the best stress reliever you could ask for.
Isn't music amazing?
Way back when (aka, last year,) I couldn't ever sing in front of anybody. My body physically would not let me. But now I sing in front of anyone who asks. 
All it took was a bus riding merrily along in St. Louis, MO.
Yay for confidence! 
What wannabe-famous-person doesn't have a YouTube account of them singing?
Not me.
Ok, maybe click on that once Bridget and I actually upload a video of us singing.
Which will happen...someday
Speaking of singing and music, come to Brigadoon! (the Fall musical, for all you kiddos that are not in tune with/refuse to acknowledge the theatre department). I have to sell 24 tickets by next week, so if you want one, come find me. 
Here's my plea as a thriving singer/star:
1) make me a star
2) if you can't physically make me a star, become physically able, and then make me a star
3) if neither of those are applicable to you, find someone who is physically capable of making me a star, and then tell them to make me a star
4) if 1-3 are not in your hands of coming true, come to Brigadoon
5) otherwise, you can actually just cut a star out, and say that you made me a star. 
I would laugh if you actually did that.
