Eliza has big dreams of being a pop musician that tours the world. This multitalented singer-songwriter is exploring their talents in Creative Writing and Songwriting + Composition courses.
I really like songwriting. I’ve been playing piano and singing since I was nine and I want to be a musician when I’m older. I can write lyrics, but I can’t put music to it. That’s really what I want to work on while I’m here, especially in my Songwriting + Composition course. I’ve always liked writing creatively anyway, it’s really fun for me. I love being able to create anything and knowing that I can make any character and make them do anything the way I want.
I want to be a singer; I’m not quite sure why. I just love the idea of creating music, it’s so important to me and so to be able to create my own music and share it with other people would be so amazing.
I’m actually writing a musical right now! I began writing a book a few months ago with a friend; she unfortunately lost interest, but I loved the characters so much and really felt this need to make it into a musical. It’s so hard, but it’s so fun. We never finished the book, so it’s a bit crazy not knowing where the story is going, but it's great to know I can make it whatever I want.
