I fell in love with the opera "Carmen" at eight. I listened to classical music & jazz. Being told that I were too timid & shy to be a singer, I turned to writing & it felt so great. My imagination sparked life & I had created a new world for myself. Poetry turned to lyrics, turned to stories which turned into art. My stories were the most important thing to me in my life at ten. I wasn't placed in orchestra, I chose it because I wanted to learn to play the violin. I only watched the History channel. I only read books on mythology & medieval time periods. Was I any different from the rest?
