We talked about all sorts of things.
Music.
Singing.
Majoring in voice.
Dreams.
Breathing.
Parents who suffocate that.
Rebelling.
Becoming my own person.
Losing virginity.

I kind of wish that I was still that girl who lived for the moments she spent singing with her conservatory-trained manager at Gymboree.

All I wanted
was to learn to sing.

It's funny
the way a dream can look so clear in your mind
and then it doesn't look quite the same as it's happening
you forget that this is what you dreamed about
for pretty much forever,
because it looks nothing like the picture you imagined before,
and you doubt that this is what you ever wanted
because your dream looked so perfect
and all of this is so... not.
