Songwriting

You guys would not believe what happened to me earlier today! Okay, so I have 3 songs that I've written, one's very rough and not I'm currently writing my 4th song. So, I've been trying to find places on the Internet where I can put out my songs to see what people think of them, and I found this one place, Paramount Song Publishing. I sent them my lyrics, but now I realize that they're not the best because they'll take your lyrics (by take I mean use them with my permission) and record them. Sounds good, right? Wrong. They said, after I asked, that they can't schedule a time for me to come in a personally be there. :( And I want to be the one singing my songs if they're going to be on the radio! So anyways, on the way to voice lessons this morning I was telling my mom all about it. I asked her if I should play and sing them for Lori, my voice teacher, and she said yes I should. The reason I never sent in a recording of me singing my songs to Paramount is because I'm scared and I don't think I have a good enough voice yet. So anyways, I played them for Lori, the first person I've played these songs for, and she loved them! :D It made my day. And then I told her about the situation with Paramount, and she was like well hey I know this kid, Kaleb Colinson, and he's up there in all the music business. I can facebook him about you and your songs, and give him your email. He's more Christian type music but he has a lot of contacts, so do you want me to do that? And I was like YESYESYES!!!!!! Isn't that so cool?! He's even from here!! Lori said that he, Lori, and this other girl that's local wrote this broadway sort of deal, and they're going to preform it at Ellis Island this next march, so obviously he's really good!! I am SO DANG EXCITED and he hasn't emailed me but hey I just talked to Lori this morning!! I am so excited! Hahah just know guys that one of your best friends might be a celebrity one day!! And I will still love and hang out with all of you! But I'm getting ahead of myself. Just please, if I do get my songs on the radio, please please please treat me the same! But that guy probably doesn't even know about me yet, but if anything else exciting happens I'll be sure to let you know!!
