About Me

ok.... honestly, i have no memorries of ever not singing. they tell me i was doing that before i could form full sentences. and who ever lead me to full sentences... created a monster. (for real) Words are entertainment. The fact that you can take 26 letters and group them togather in an endless amount and then switch those letter groupings around at your leisure is soooooooo fascinating to me. If it wasn't for this type of fascination, I don't think I'd still be doing poetry and writing songs and what not. um.....( what els...) I'm a designer by profession ( both jewelry and clothing). I'm an artist in the true form of the word. I try to put my hand in multiple areas of creativity...... and do them all to my level of perfection. So when asked " what do you do?" i can honestly say " just short of everything" put it like this...... If you cook raviollie, and that's the only thing that you can cook........ can you realy call yourself a chef? so why are people so quick to badge themselves as artists " in general" and they only have one area of expertise? (just some good ol junk food for thought) but anyway.... back to me as a singer...... music is relief for me. when in sing , I do it 'cause it feels so good. Those notes in that moment make me feel better. like.......... you know the feeling you get in the pit of your chest and then you feel it in the base of your throte(sp) and then that makes you prolong you exhale while you're cry'n real hard...... that's the feeling i get when i sing.... crying ( i think that feels great... how bout you?) what your cry? touch me in my message box and leave me a not. i'd like to hear from you peace. i realy don't think you care all that much 'bout this info... but for those of you who do by chance... just send a message -sa'alek
