  38. Hello to anyone reading. My name is Arianna. I live in a small town in Arkansas. I just turned 14. I hate it when I go to tell how much I love singing and it starts to sound corny. But I do. Singing IS my life, there's no life WITHOUT singing. I just about drive myself crazy when I'm sick and my voice sounds horrible. I've wanted to be in any sort of music career since I was about 8. I'm in choir at school. In 6th grade I made the first ever Honor Choir in Arkansas. I made 11th chair in All-Region choir last year in 7th grade. I quit choir this year because of some personal issues. But I've stayed with my passion for music and joined band. I can play the flute and piano. I can never really see anyone else having a big of passion for music as I do myself. As for the small stuff, I made 2nd in a school Talent Show singing Fireflies by Owl City. I was also in a group singing in the Talent Show, we sang My Boyfriends Back by The American Dream and won Third place also. I hope anyone who reads this realizes how much I love music. I will never be happy until I am doing something relating to music.

I talk spanish, english, romanian and a little french. I have wanted to be an actress since I was very young. I have acted in school plays and things like theatres. I'm very interested in the role. It's my dream! In addition to fulfilling my dream, would greatly help my family. Please give me this opportunity to change my life!
