Annabelle Says…
- Prince Edward was very nice, I still can't believe he heard me sing...
- I loved New Years Eve at Birrarung Marr the fireworks were awesome.
- I love performing and to perform for the people of Melbourne makes me feel proud.
- Singing on the same stage Marina Prior and Peter Brockelhurst has been a dream come true. I saw them sing on the Carols and I was wishing I could be with them!
- To be able to sing is my gift and I like to share my gift with others.
- I have a great singing Teacher, it’s David Jaanz. I love him a lot!
- Lots of people love me and help me. I am so lucky people give me a go! I always try my very best. That’s all I can do! I love performing so much!
- My favourite saying is “we are shaped and fashioned by what we love” I think people should be who they are and feel proud.. The world needs lots of colourful things. I am just one colour. I might write a song about that!
- My brother makes me proud he has had many brain operations, he loves to help people and he never gives up. Everyone can make a difference in a positive way.
- My dream is to help people to be accepted and be treated with the respect.
- I love to help charities especially Variety because they help other charities too! The people connected to Variety are people who really care about others! I’m proud of them!
- I have sang with Cosima twice,I met Guy, Delta, Miranda and sang with Marina Prior and so many people who inspire me to try harder. I can do it, I know I can if people keep supporting me, I can!
- Being a singer is not what I do it’s what I am!
