The Music-Making Machine!
So I am thinking I might just start a band or try to find one to join! So don't be taken aback when you turn on VH1 and see "Behind the Music: The Julie Penuel Band" or flip to MTV and see "Driven: Julie Penuel." It all started last night when I got home from San Marcas and my dad had left a little "sus" (that's what my family calls a surprise) for me on my bed. It was a little plastic egg filled with seeds or something mysterious. And when you shake it, it produces a wonderful rain-like, rhythmical sound! This morning I grabbed the green egg on my way out the door for work. As I drove the 25 minutes to work, I shook and I shook and I shook that little egg to the radio. Then when I drove from work to Community group I practiced yet again. And by the time I was headed home, I was pretty much a professional. So now I am just waiting to be discovered. Here is the first photograph of me with my instrument! Just think... one day you will be able to say "I knew Julie when she was first embarking on her road to fame!"

my only question is...were you dancing as you shook your little green egg? :)
well as you know my pops is a professor of music at CN so i'll see what i can do for you...i mean he's got some connections in those circles...and as i hear there is a shortage of egg shakers in the industry
I've been known to have "shakers" in my car as well. Two pieces of brotherly advice: 1. Once you master the shaker, try advancing to a tamborine (it works well with Hanson) 2. Never put the shaker in your pants.
