The Good, The Bad and The Helpless
In Time
I clutched my boarding pass tightly in my hand as the flight attendant announced my row. I stood up silently with my ninja turtle bag and went it to the line, having already said goodbye to my family at security.
I would have thought that would be the hardest part, considering I'm moving for the first time to a completely different country. In fact this was the hardest, I couldn't bring up the nerve to move my feet into the runway were everything will be different.
Eventually I moved with tears prickling my eyes, clutching my scarf more securely around me as I walked to my plane and took a seat in the way back. I sent a last minute goodbye text to my family and before I knew it we were in the air and my life as I knew it would forever change.
If you asked me a month ago if this would happen to me I would have laughed right in your face. Me, Rosella having a multiple million hits on YouTube just cause I sang a cover of Little Things? I can't exactly laugh now though because its true.
For as long as I have been alive I have always wanted to sing professionally. Being little and singing in front of my family I believed was as far as I would ever get, and quite frankly that was enough.
My best friend Emily was the only other person besides my family who had heard my voice and she was the one who convinced me to make a YouTube channel. I'm naturally a shy person so I resisted at first but after awhile I gave in. Once a week I posted a video with me and my guitar just signing in my room, my bright pink curtains as the background.
Let me start now that One Direction are one of my inspirations, I love them all so much and I found it appropriate that I would sing one of there most beautiful songs.
However after I posted the video I noticed more and more views from people I didn't know. Before I knew it I was on You Tubes main page and I got an email from a record label in London that wanted to sign me. How stupid would I be to say no?
So I graduated high school and instead of hitting the beach with my friends I am going to be spending the next year getting signed and recording my first album. Sometimes I have to pinch myself to make me believe its real. I just hope all goes well.
"Attention passengers we will be making our descent into London." I sucked in a shaky breath, I am finally here.
Lets just hope all goes well.

Haha It's starts off slow but I promise you will see a lot of them. The first couple chapters have a lot of Rose cause I want to set her up good before I start with Harry and the boys.
