ABOUT

*ANOTHER EDIT*
Hey everyone! I just wanted to let anyone who reads this know that while I still can't become committed to a band at this time that I do want to help you out in a different way. I own a Casio WK3300 keyboard. I bought brand new in 2007 and I have barely played it all. In all actuality, I do not know how to play the piano or keyboard very well, but I was trying to learn. I bought the keyboard right after I graduated in May of 2007 and it wasn't until July that I actually bought it. I bought it for about $700.00. Like I said, I have barely played it and it looks brand new. I also have a stand for it and a bench. I would really like to sell it, since I can't really gather any use from it anymore. I would like to sell the Keyboard, Stand, and Bench for about $400.00 dollars (but I am negotiable). If you are interested please email me at
whispering.sweet_dreams . com or call me 251-979-3736 (If I don't pick up, just leave a message and I will return your call). Please if you are interested at all, please give me a call. I really need that extra money...

*EDIT*
Hey there!
I just wanted to say that at the moment I can not do anything. My mom recently left and my dad lost his job and I am trying to raise all of my sisters and take care of my grandmother and work. Plus, my car is a piece of crap and I can't go very far in it. This was something I really wanted to do, but once again, life has ruined my chances of ever achieving my dream. I am so sorry.
*END EDIT*

Hi there! I am twenty years old and my life is really going down hill. I am trying to get my talent shown, not only for me, but for my family. I have wanted to be a singer ever since I was a little girl and I will work very hard to make my dreams come true. I am very flexible. I will try to sing anything that is given to me, but hard rock is really not my strong point. I was in choir in elementary school (of course, my talents weren't really showcased in a elementary children's choir like that) and I also was in choir all four years of high school, two of those years I was in the auditioned ensemble that only included 16 girls. I won 5 medals for my solo performances (although that was classical, broadway, and opera music) and I will be very happy to work with anyone who will give me a chance. I am not going to say that I am the best, but I will work hard and I will try anything. Thank you for showing any interest in me!
If you would like to talk to me a bit more, please e-mail me at

Thank you once again!
