          So This Is Me

I play guitar everywhere, and this is a picture from my yearbook with me playing guitar in the art room. That's my friend Hannah behind me.

          Somewhere Over the Rainbow

This is one of my favorite songs to sing, and was espicially fun to perform at my school's version of "American Idol." The three judges were actually three of our school's interns immitating Simon, Randy and Paula. Needless to say, there was no true winner, since all the students performing that day were very talented, and no feelings wanted to be hurt.

          The Reason

Ani Difranco;my musical inspiration. I first heard her as a freshman off the record, Living In Clip. I was instantly wowed by her guitar playing abilities and her captivating voice. I've also come to know more about who she is and find we share common ideas and opinions about the world.
