Playing music

All my life (since I can remember) I've been good at drawing. Then, when I was about twelve, I became good at writing (because I wrote the scripts for my comicbooks and enjoyed reading books all day long). Nowadays I'm great at both, specially at writing. So much, that people read my 'novels' and are either delighted and want more, or are dumbstruck out of the complexity of the words, since I mostly write in medieval and fantastic contexts.

Yet, I've always wanted to play music. My older brother once borrowed me his acoustic guitar for several months so I could learn, with the help of a guy I met at a drums store. I learned a few things but became frustrated easily. Instead, I started playing the drums, and even became the leader of my own band, along with three other friends. The guy from the drums store knew how to play pretty much any instrument AND he could sing, so he coached each one of us during the rehearsals.

Still, besides the guitar and the drums, I've always wanted to sing. I don't have a nice voice and I never asked anyone to help me (they just kept saying 'your voice has to come from your stomach' or something like that), but I sing everyday while designing, writing, drawing, tidying, etc. I'm terrible, but I'd love to be good someday. And the picture I posted is because I like the high pitch tones that Edu Falaschi can reach in Angra's songs (and Almah's, too). I also enjoy practicing those tones in Iron Maiden's and Helloween's songs, for example.

A girl can dream, right? I want to be a singer.
