Why Stevie means so much!

That story also made me really sad. Tears definatly welled up in my eyes.

My story also isn't very inspiring either, but here it is...
It was September of last year. I was stuck in traffic with my dad on the way to his house and Tusk came on the radio. My dad turned the volume way up and since I didn't feel like going deaf I paused my ipod and listened to the song. I really liked the song and my dad kept talking about it and how the USC marching band was on the song. I knew my stepmom had a Fleetwood Mac cd so I decided to put the song on my ipod. It was The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac. I ended up just putting all the songs on and I sat there and listened to them all. I was hooked. There wasn't a song I didn't like. After that I did some research on the band and I came across the Seven Wonders video form 1987. I fell in love with that song and whoever was singing. I thought she sounded amazing and was absolutly beautiful. I found out that that person was none other than Stevie Nicks. I just kept researching who she was and getting her music.

Throughout these months I found a role model in Stevie. She has allowed me to find myself. My real self. The first thing I started was writting in my journal every night. I haven't ever done that. I got really into music that I actually liked and I didn't care. I was always kinda ashamed of the music I listened to because I've never liked the type of music everyone else liked. In the 4th grade I loved Cher and Celine Dion and everyone made fun of me so I forced myself to like what everyone else liked. Eventually I just gave up music. Now I don't care what people think. You ask me who my favorite singer is I will tell you it is Stevie Nicks. She also got me back into my art. when I found out she drew and painted I just started back up again and she is my inspiration when it comes to my sketches. I got a keyboard and I'm learning how to play it.It's something I always wanted to do. I started wearing the clothes that I like. She taught me to embrace who I really am and I don't have to change for anyone.

Her music also got me through the ton of stress I have been feeling this year as a senior in high school. All the college stuff and constant homework kept me stressed pretty much all day everyday. Just going home and listening to her music just made me feel so much better. She has gotton me through so many hard times this year because she is always there if no one else is.
She is such a strong, unique, beautiful woman and I've never found anyone like her. There is no one like her. That is why she is my role model and I don't care what anyone says. I will forever dance around my room like a complete idiot to her music and I don't care.
