Anonymous asked: Heya, Patty! I've been a fan for a year or so now, and I was wondering where you plan on going with this? Are you headed to college? Do you have any other musicians to accompany you?

Hiya there, anonymous! This is kind of a personal question, but I don’t mind.

Honestly, I am getting very serious about finishing my EP right now (you can hear some stuff on my BandCamp page if you haven’t yet) so I can send out a few demos to some labels and see what happens. I’m also auditioning for anything and everything that will give me a chance to perform. 

As for college, I graduated from high school last year and I decided then that I wasn’t going to go. I only intend to be a singer/songwriter at this point in my life and if, God forbid, that changes, then college will always be there for me. I won’t spend money I don’t have on a career I don’t want.

Other musicians are few and far between in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where I’m from. I’ve tried to start some bands with friends of mine and it never seems to work. I have not met someone my age who I get along with who can actually play all the chords and hold their own on the guitar. What I need right now is another acoustic guitarist so I can play mandolin or get all those little guitar parts in at a live show.

Thanks, anon! :D <3

ca6taloo,

I writed a song! :D

**LYRICS!**

Our hands were buried in the snowflakes
But we still do our secret handshake
Your perfectly-sized fingers fill the spaces next to mine, they’re intertwined
And if they froze together, I think I wouldn’t mind; my oh my

I’m so scared of heights, but God damn that view
I feel a chill when I see the bottom
Then melt when I see you
But now and then, I still get a shiver, 
But it’s just the winter, so 
Let’s freeze, say cheese & take a picture

*refrain*
‘Cause ninety-nine point ninety-nine
Percent of the time
My own two feet are the enemy
When I’m walking on the ice
And I’m prepared to fall so would you
Please just fall with me?
‘Cause I think you could be
My evergreen

It’s frigid, but you’ve got me sweating bullets
‘Cause I can’t see what’s up ahead
And looking back, I am so far away from home, my comfort zone
And all our footprints have been covered by the snow 

And I know the avalanche is coming for me
Nature plays its hand indifferently
And so much like branches shedding their leaves,
We all become estranged
When the seasons change
But I’d like to stay the same

When I first heard “Without You” on the radio, it was pleading for me to make it into a mashup. And, of course, the classic U2 song was a lovely fit. They’re even in the same key! Convenient, much? 

I wasn’t sure how to go about this until I heard Lea Michele’s performance of “Without You,” and then I was completely sold on using the piano as the focal point.

“Where You Are”- Everlife Cover by Patty Pierzchala (argusfilks) on YouTube

acoustic, at the love library, cover, everlife, i wanna be where you are, turquoise hair, where you are,

So this is Frankie. She’s a new vlogger and she’s really sweet and sincere and I think you should all give her a chance. It’s hard to start out on YouTube, especially as a vlogger, when you don’t have a guitar or a piano to use as a crutch, and ultimately have to rely on your personality to make an impression. But I really think this girl, who I don’t even know, is a very talented vlogger and well-deserving person.

vlog, vlogging, watch this, please?, i'll be your best friend, cocky, confident, glasses,

Favorites of 2011 and Overdue Christmas Vlogging!

This is WAY late because it refused to upload! Just some good, old-fashioned vlogging to kick off 2012. Expect more vlogs in the future! Maybe give me some ideas to talk about, as my life is not extremely exciting at the moment. 


I still haven’t gotten around to recording any of my EP. Then again, I still have a song or two to write for it. But I’ll let you know when it’s finished! 

New cover in a few days, but I’ve recently become addicted to Firefly and intend to finish it with my friends ASAP, so it could be a while. I think you guys are gonna like my YouTube music plans for the new year. Stay tuned, loves!

Ewoks, Homosexual Stimulation, and Captain Picard”

Chapter One: Time Off

Andrew Wells took a deep breath and did his best to gather his courage. Although Buffy was just his boss now instead of his arch nemesis, she still made his palms sweat, especially with her Slayer, could-snap-a-nerd-like-a-twig powers and all that. Making Buffy mad was pretty much number one on his not-to-do list. But today, he was asking Buffy for a huge favor, and it was absolutely vital that she didn’t turn him down.

He saw her out on the back lawn, training the Potentials, or the Slayerettes, as he’d privately begun calling them. He opened the back door and walked straight up to Buffy, who was right in the middle or teaching one of the girls a jump kick move, or something equally badass.

“Hey Buffy!” he said a little too loudly, causing Buffy to jump and spin around, putting him in a chokehold. Luckily, she hadn’t been holding a stake at the time, or Andrew probably would have acquired an unfortunately placed puncture wound.

When she saw Andrew’s face, she let out a sigh of relief, but still didn’t let go. “Seriously, Andrew? Could you not interrupt me when I’m slaying, even if it’s simulated, please?”

Still in the hold, Andrew nodded, his face turning red. “You look stunning today, Buffy; are those new nunchucks?”

She let him out of the hold abruptly and he fell onto the grass. Instead of sputtering on the ground as Buffy expected him to do, Andrew simply popped right back up, nonchalantly massaging his neck. “Sorry about that, boss. Could I possibly speak with you…in private?” He waggled his eyebrows, and she rolled her eyes.

“Fine. Girls, practice that move I just showed you. Denise, watch out for the other girls’ teeth. I’ll be back in a sec.”

Buffy grabbed his elbow and pulled him to the side of the house, her face still full of annoyance. She threw his arm back to his side and put her hands on her hips. “What do you need, Andrew?”

Andrew could feel his shield of suave disintegrating. Buffy sure got annoyed when she was interrupted pre-slay. “I…well, the house is super crowded, right? I was thinking, maybe if I left for a few days, say from July 12th through the 15th, it would give everybody a little more room to kick and punch and—”

Suddenly, Buffy’s eyes lit up. “Oh my god! You’re asking for time off so you can go to Comic-Con, aren’t you? Xander’s been bugging me about letting him go ever since it was invented.”
