If you haven’t seen my song Anger, yes, I am competing in NGADM this year. I was a bit nervous about joining NGADM because I was already planning to compete in NGUAC this year. I was nervous because of time.

“For me, thinking of melodies is hard. It may take a few days, other maybe weeks, just to come up with one. No matter how long it takes for me to come up with a melody, I will use it. Sometimes I’m humming one day, making up something, and I’m like ‘I want to use that.’ Sometimes it just works that way.” - Description of my song Hopeless.

This is basically why I was nervous. Melodies just don’t pop into my mind in a snap, and I think it’s the same with most people. But what’s different with me is that it may take WEEKS for me to think of one. I probably have shouldn’t gotten ahead of myself because NGUAC starts later.

I’ve made my decision and I’m competing in both NGADM and NGUAC. Nothing’s going to stop me, not even the timeframe!
