#Weekend Music Share with *Teenage Montage

It’s the weekend!!!!!!

I’m so glad you’ve joined me this week for another edition of Weekend Music Share.

At 13 years old I was sent to a boarding school for bad girls at a convent. It was a drastic change from the wild drug-induced life I was living. Music was one of the only outlets we had to the outside world, especially in the first three month when you could not go home.

I meet other teenage girls of all ages and economic backgrounds, it was quite interesting. Music has been my friend since I was a small child singing along to the radio with my father. We weren’t allowed to listen to the radio but did have a record player and could bring your albums in. Here are a couple of songs we had on constant repeat during the year I was there.

My favorite song at the time was Mercedes Benz by Janis Joplin. We would sing the whole time we were working in the laundry each morning.

The nun’s and my grandparents saved my life.

Have a great weekend!
