“I'm taking drama classes, they say I'm a natural actress. I think it's just because I talk a lot. I'm also learning how to play guitar and piano. Piano is really hard though.

It adds a different color to the musical palette.” WellsHas BeensStillsIdeasDifferentHardSeemsAgeAblePlansHavensColorLateSittingDifficultyAddGuitarMusicalOld AgePianoJapanGood IdeasGearsSpotlightSitting DownPaletteBanjosDifferent ColorsWorking Very Hard Author:Livingston Taylor
