Dreams...





Hey Everyone! It's Jen again! 
Firstly I want to thank everyone who read my first ever blog update last week, it reached more people than i ever hoped! 

Secondly, just STOP. For one moment.
Look and read the picture at the top. ^ up there.

Read it? Good.
I was a little bit stuck as to what to write about this week (as there has been no new Warped Tour announcements), but I received an anonymous message only earlier on tonight, which told me that my first blog post inspired someone to never give up their dream of making it in the music business, and to put more effort into their music. I never started to write this blog to "inspire" anyone, I wouldn't think little old me could ever do that to be honest, but the message made me tear up and it made me completely speechless. 

So it gave me an idea of what to write about...
MY dream. Of way back probably about 10 years ago now.

As a kid, I wanted to be everything on the planet. I wanted to be a hairdresser, I wanted to be a dentist, then I wanted to become a lawyer, and somewhere along the way, I stumbled across something called "Rock'n'Roll", and my dream became to do exactly what I am now. Living and working in the music industry. 
Then I tripped over "Warped Tour" many moons ago now, and I always thought to myself "THAT is exactly what I want to be doing/working by the age of 30. I want to be working or helping run/organise Warped Tour". 
I'm 19... 
And that's exactly what I will be doing in just a little over 3 months time now.

I am incredibly lucky to be given this chance, and I have worked so hard the past 3 years since I left school at the age of 16 to go and chase my music dreams. So for me, someone who still sees herself as a huggggge kid at times, to actually inspire someone out there, then that is incredible. 

My dreams are coming true, every single day. I am reaching goals that I only thought would be reachable in a lifetime of trying and working hard. I'm doing this before I am even 20 years old. If I can do it, SO SO SO many of you can too! Just BELIEVE in yourself, and surround yourself with people who believe in YOU. Work DAMN hard at whatever your dream is, if it's music then AWESOME, if it's not, then AMAZING! 
No matter what it is, if it's your dream, it's worth something to you, and that is what matters. 
You can do it! I PROMISE. Cause I am.

I'll leave you with this pic this week... Think over it, and I hope that this helps some more of you, or even that one person who has sent me that message even more. 
Mine terrify me... But that's what makes it so much more exciting and makes me work so hard.
 Keep dreaming, and dream big! <3
