I have always had a passion for music since i was a child. I sang until I picked up guitar in my late teens. I learned how to play guitar upside down because i am left handed. I have been in many bands over the years but things never seemed to work out even when we were playing big shows and getting paid well. I do not feel like I am good at anything else. The last album I did I wrote the songs mixed, mastered, and produced the album myself at Tree Sound studios. It was then I realized I wanted to be a producer one day. I never imagined I would be able to afford it... Yesterday I got my acceptance letter from Full Sail University which is one of the top 25 music schools in the country. I also got a $20,000 scolarship. I start classes on May 29th, 2017. Unfortunately, the laptop i have is not nearly powerful enough to run the programs that are required to do the assignments and projects. I have a couple hundred dollars I can spend but its not going to be enough by a long shot. I wont be able to save enough from my paychcks between now and then to buy one in time to start. If I do not get a good computer before then, I will loose my conditional scolarship and I dont think I can handle knowing I had the chance to make my dreams come true and blew it because I dont have enough extra cash to simply buy a computer... I am so good at what I do and it really makesme happy. I live less than an hour from Atlanta which is becoming the new Hollywood so there is no  know where I want to work when I get done and I know I will do very well and I will be able to quit living paycheck to paycheck and can afford to put my daughter in school when she graduates.  This is a desperate cry for help and I appreciate any donation. You only get chances like this once in a lifetime and I am turning 36 in two days. There is a link to my bands reverbnation.com profile which hasthree tracks I wrote all of the music, nixed, mastered and produced and played guitar on. It was my first time mastering and producing  on professional hardware and I know much more know than I did then. I will be forever greatful fr any donations. Thank you in advance.
