    Country roads..

    *sits down and puts my guitar aside*

    So here I am in Dallas, Texas, getting ready for my show for tonight. It's a calm, peaceful place over here, I honestly am at ease over here. Excited as I may be for the show, I'm slightly saddened by something that has happened earlier this week. Dissapointed, maybe. No, hurt and pissed at the same time is more like it. I will be taking.. *sighs* ..a little bit of my time to vent, 'cause I feel I need to. Days ago, I got online as I had some spare time, and read something in the message board at my official site which just got to me badly. It concerns this person saying negative things about my music, not me but my music. First off, I worked hard on my first album, and I do not expect everyone to like it, but I do want people to respect me. I wrote songs on those albums, most of which was when I was 14 too, and I'd like to be given credit for that. "Hotel Paper might sound the same as The Spirit Room" says this person. And once again I don't expect everyone to like it but I do want people to listen to a track off of it and think "I guess she's an artist". All I look for is a little respect and credit as I said before. I write songs, and they all are things I relate to personally, and this kind of music is the kind I want to do, and it's like people want me to do these hooky pop songs.. I can do those, I tell you, but my heart's with the music I do now. That's it.. feels good to get that off my chest.

    *folds arms, looks at the clock on the wall, shrugs*

    So, the release date for Hotel Paper is approaching. I'm really looking forward to that, and the video for "Are You Happy Now" will be premiered on MTV in four days, and the day after that I do the song live. I'm a bit nervous I guess, I can't help but worry about people's opinions on it. It's hit the radio, I'm sure some have heard it, but I've gotten no feedback for now, and, being the curious chick I am, I'm in need of feedback. Hee. Well time's up for rehearsal break.. Time to get off your butt, Michelle.

    *giggles a little and walks out of the dressing room with guitar in hand*
