Hey guys. Ok, so i’ve been writing this story for a few months, and i finally decided to share it on Youtube. Technicly, The video has the whole information, but i’ll add some more here: Jessica/Jessie: She’s 16 and used to asist to a public school, where she was allowed to do whatever she wanted with no limitations. She’s really inteligent, but super lazy. Hates to study. Her parents work the whole day, and they’re not really intrested in Jessie’s education, so they just give her what she wants. She decided to transfer to a knew private lay school, where her best friends are studing (Valerie and Jazz). What she didnt know was that her life would change in the minute that she step in that building. Paul: He’s the music teacher. He has just finished his study’s in college and was hired to be not only a teacher: a tutor (somebody who helps the students with their homeworks and all that and, of course, disciplines them). He’s not much agree with spankings and he’s really pacifist and pacient. Valerie: She’s one of Jessie’s BFF. She used to go to a religious school, until her parents tranfered her to this new school.

We considered a drum machine for practices, but instead searched YouTube for a drummer. We ended up being extremely fortunate to find a very good drummer living in Finland. He was nice enough to re-record his drums for us with only his drum sound in the recording so that we could jam along with him by hearing just him on the drums and us on our guitars with our own sound.
