A 18-year-old girl having a funky time on her guitar. Raw, amateur but endearingly inept.
Well i'm a college student and over the past year i've been learning to play the guitar, like my old man. I've always been an avid singer, but without the backup of an instrument i was a bit stuck and couldn't progress. At first it was hard and annoying and down right frustrating, but now i love my guitar so much i can hardly spend a night without picking it up and giving it a strum.
I've recently begun writing my own material, which is something i thought would never happen because i've never been too fantastic when it comes to lyrics. I'm a story teller, i write what matters to me. Right now what matters to me is being a teenager growing into an adult, so that's really what my music is all about. It's probably very simple to everyone who hears it, because let's face it i'm no Jimi Hendrix, but it matters to me because it's something i've created and want to share.
Some of this stuff is pretty damn random, and anyone who knows me will probably have full-well expected it because i am quite the random girl. I hope you get a sense of me in what you hear, if you would be so sweet as to listen :)
And i wanna give a special hug and a kiss to my best friend Liz who was so amazing helping me get this profile set up, and for inspiring me in my music and to all and all be a better peep! And of course, a nudge and a wink to Jen who is my personal roadie/groupie/super lyric listener.

“It’s all happening!!” All girls sounds like fun and perfect for a bit of back to chess :P Wonderful I can’t wait to hear what you’ve written and I’ll try not to get too blown away this time. I’ll ring just incase you and Jen don’t get my text (after all I wouldn’t want to interrupt anything). I’m quite sleep deprived at the moment so it would be appreciated if we could skip the early morning game of monopoly this time and turn in much much earlier. xx
You know... when you type this ":P" I can just see the expression you pull after you make a joke. :) Anyway Rosie. I am coming and I'll bring Rocky Horror sheet music. What time should I turn up...? I'm thinking early evening as I'm running my little sister to wigan in the afternoon on what some might call a date LMAO. xx
EEEEEEEEEEEE! *huggles and cuddles you* Babe, we're gonna celebrate! I'm gonna buy you the best male and the best female whore at Pierre Précieuse and a good bottle of whatever you like, love!
