I am going to tell you about three things I have been successful with in my life.
- Learning How To Play The Violin
About four years ago, I started taking classical violin lessons. I had a really good teacher, and did pretty good. About a year ago, I auditioned for a scholarship, and won first place. Now I play the violin in a adult orchestra.
2. Cooking
My Mama had me in the kitchen with her when I was just a baby and she taught me how to cook and bake. It is one of my top five favorite things to do.
3. Buying My Own Asset (money maker)
I have my own candy machine that I bought with money I had earned. I have peanut M&M’s, Skittles, and gumballs in it. Right now it is at a printing shop, but I need to move it to somewhere that has more people coming in and waiting around for their turn for something.
Thanks for reading my essay!

What color is your candy machine?
Mine is red and black. What style of violin do you play?
I play Bluegrass and classical. I am going to start taking fiddle lessons via skype with a girl that lives in north carolina. Here is a link to her family band. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfI7-E2nhkc

Skype is a computer program that is kinda like a phone call, except you can see the person live. Does that make any sense?=)

I am so proud of you, Odessa. You have been very successful at many things. I remember seeing you in the kitchen when you could barely stand up! Your Mama has taught you a lot about cooking and you are a great cook! And I could listen to you play violin all day long! I didn’t know you had a candy machine. How cool is that! How much money do you get from it every month? Have you found a new place to put it yet?
