2011 Already?!?!

I can't believe this year is over! It went by so fast!
So what's your New Year's resolution? Mine is to start eating healthier, cause I ate alot of junk food this past year.

Quiting

I'm quiting Avenue, yep that's right. I haven't told the rest of the band yet, but I am in the next month. A couple days ago I went to Minny and D-Girl's b-day party (they're twins) and it was Me, Minny, D-Girl, Nix and a girl named Michaela. D-Girl kept telling me how great a guitarist she was so I saw it for myself, turns out she sucked soooooo bad, she was playing guitar terribly, but apparently to Minny and D-Girl she was fantastic. But anyways, we practiced for a little and Michaela kinda took over playing guitar. I was kinda like "Who do you think you are??" and "Thanks, your making this easier" but she was kind of a "bad word that I won't say cuz it's a bad word". I'm just really scared, I don't know how the rest of the band is gonna take it. But I just really hope that they don't replace me with Michaela, cuz she sucks.

In the Christmas Spirit

I honestly can't wait for Christmas it's my most favorite time of the year, presents are the least of it, I love spending time with my family and celebrating Jesus' birthday, plus it's a time off school (whoot!) Who's excited for Christmas???

My B-day part 2

My birthday is tomorrow and tonite I'm going with my super cool aunt and my BFF to Forever 21!!!!! I'm SOOOOOO excited!!

My new Electric Guitar!!!!

About a week ago I got my very first electric guitar!!! it's red and I named her Stella =D she is da bomb!!

My B-day!

My B-day's coming up!!!! Woot!! I'll give u a hint of how old I'm gonna be it's between 2 and 100 lol xD

My 2nd Concert. . .EVER!

I preformed Love Story by Taylor Swift on the guitar at my church's Ice Cream Social =) My heart was pumping like crazy, but I had a lot of fun =D

Sayings by Frenchie

"That was pathetic"
"Me have smarticals"
"Stay strong, hun"
"That was fun. . ."
"JB!!!!!!!!"
"Hm. Yeah. Uh. No"
"Que Sera"
"Peace out, homie"
"What up, homie?"
"C'mon homeboys" (it usually doesn't matter whether your a girl, I'll just call you homeboy)
"Hahaha oh life, I love you" (I'll usually say that when something went wrong)
"Well, you know. . .life"

A Makeover!!

Before the Fame got a makeover!!! Whoot! I love the free bird concept, very epic =]

Just Too Fast For Music

Well, it looks like I'm gonna take another break again, there is a lot of stress in my life right now: everything I do that I think will be good for my future, people (my family) keep telling me I have better things to do and right now I feel like my grandparents are ashamed of me just because I don't practice my guitar for 5 hours a day and I don't practice my swimming strokes just because my mom and dad are busy working + I feel like I have to please everybody and I feel guilty when I don't finish all of my home school and I keep feeling guilty when ever I eat sugar b4 lunch or dinner and i really wanna do a fun work out program but I just don't have time and I wish my 9 yr old sister would stop bullying me because it drains all the energy out of me and when ever I tell my parents about how stressful I'm getting I start crying then they start making fun of me by saying stuff like "I'm playing the world's smallest violin" or "Oh, sooo dramatic" and I feel like I'm totally ignoring my friend Morgan and I've been REALLY sleepy lately and everyone keeps getting angry at me and when I do something that leads to a mini disaster or I saying something that's kinda nieve to whats going on or I state the obvious without knowing it my friend wil say stuff VERY sarcasticly like "That was smart" or "That wasn't stupid" or "Durrrr" or "That was the smartest thing you could do??" and I want to do a personal Bible study, but my dad said "What about your school work" so I don't have time for it and I've been lying my head off lately because I feel like my life is going so fast in my life that I don't have time for the truth and I feel like I'm living the exact day over and over and over again and I just really want to scream because I hate this stuff going on in my life so please, pray to God for me that everything will slow down and go like 2 mph. I'm sorry for dumping all this on you, but I needed somebody to talk to about this with out calling me dramatic =[

A Year Without Rain

I would definitely recommend Selena Gomez's new album; A Year Without Rain. It's very upbeat and fun. My favorite songs are

1. Off The Chain
2. Ghost Of You
3. A Year Without Rain
4. Sick Of You
5. Round & Round

Buy it on iTunes now!

NEW ALBUM!

I'm thinking about starting on a new album called "The Eyes Collection", the only song I have right now is Diamondeyes, but I haven't finished it yet. . .I hope to though!

Guitar Lessons

I just started guitar lessons yesterday and I get to CHOOSE what I want to learn, how cool is that?! My first song I wanted to learn was Love Story by taylor Swift since Avenue is just perfecting that song right now and I hope to know by our next band meeting =) Please pray for me that I do know by then!
~Frenchie <3

Shoot for the Stars and A Chance

They're both two new singles I recently wrote and. . .they're da bomb diggity dom tom lol =)

School.

I have a love/hate relationship with school. I'm homeschooled cause I'd probably have hundreds of screaming fans chasing after me like I was Justin Bieber lol (IN MY DREAMS!). Anyways, back to school, I want to learn but I usually feel like there's something better to do, but I honestly don't have anything better to do x]

Maybe I'll meet Justin Bieber (I HOPE SO!!!), or maybe I'll get discovered and THEN I'll meet Justin Bieber! lol, or maybe I'll win a million dollars and I'll go to a Justin Bieber concert and then I'll get a cell phone! LOL well, I hope whatever's in my near future it involves Justin Bieber hehehehe

My Hero Has Let Me Down

As much as what I'm about to say pains me, down to the deepest parts of my soul and it makes me want to cry everytime it comes to mind, I need to make this announcement.
When I watched the video of Lady Gaga in a see through outfit in high heels and crowd surfing, while a bunch of half-crazed men started. . .well, let's just say all of her girl parts weren't safe out in the open.

I couldn't believe my eyes, I burst out in tears the first 30 seconds and immediatly turned it off. I just didn't want to believe my hero. . .had let me down.

As soon as I shut the webpage down, I recalled the before the fame moments of Stefani Germanotta, who now a days is called Lady Gaga. She was music lover. Period. She had a beautiful soul that was crying out for help in the lonely world she was livng in. Her music told stories of love, pain, and wonder.

Then I moved on through the cycle and came to when her dream of fame finally became true. You could tell she was like a little caterpillar bursting from her cocoon into an enormous and colorful butterfly. Her music had taken a strange, but wonderful turn, but then I listened to the lyrics of her songs and finally realized how wrong I had been.

Finally, she had come to this; she had been overtaken. . .by the fame monster. She had changed; she was stressing her power of fame until it was broken. This statement I read to you isn't mad up and I quote: "Lady Gaga debuts at #4 on the Forbes World Most Powerful Celebrities list". As you can see I have a feeling I wasn't the only one who was starstruck with the fame.

So now, I've learned to never count on your heroes, they'll only let you down.

Goodbye Lady Gaga

~Frenchie, the former Gaga fan =(

I'm working on two new songs, one is called "Diamondeyes" the other is "Send Out a Prayer" I'm only finshing the lyrics but, I hope to get them done by next week!

An Announcement!

Well, it looks like Cherries and Chains was not my final album, I'm too addicted to writing my own songs, so I'm taking a break off writing songs for an album then I'll start a new album! I might write a few singles in b-tween, but that'll be it. I hope by then I'll have learned new guitar chords! Then it'll be a whole new side of Frenchie!
Follow your Dreams! You might get somewhere! (And you can quote that, dear)
