I AM.

All my family and friends seem to know exactly who they are and what they want to make of it. I have friends saying "I'm an artist, I'm going to paint my whole life." or "I'm going to be a famous singer by the time I'm 30." I have my coach, my art teacher, my band instructor, my chorus director and my mom telling me different things. I've heard I'm a runner, I'm a singer, I'm an art girl, I'm a musician, all ties into I'm an artist though, not just in the sense of art though. Running is an art to me, you can't just go out and run for the cross country team. It takes training, work and endurance, it's an art, at least to me it's a part of my art. I play piano, sing and I work with art. I draw, paint, use charcoal, chalk, all that fun stuff; that makes me an artist. Singing, playing the piano and running make me an artist too because no one does it quite like me. No one can sing the exact way as me, no one presses keys of a piano in the same manner as me and no one runs with the same movements as me. It's all just an art. It took me awhile to make this conclusion but I'm at the point where I know I am an artist. Everyone's an artist, the problem is staying one. I'm determined to stay one as long as I'm living.
