I started listening to Gaga when I was 14 years old, right after my grandmother passed away. I was facing a lot of difficult emotions at the time and all I listened to was depressing songs about suicide. I decided to try Lady gaga because I needed something upbeat, and I heard her songs were catchy. From the first time I popped that cd in my player, I've listened to her everyday. Her songs have taught me to dream and be comfortable with myself. Then Born This Way was released and inspired me to come out to my parents, which was the most difficult decision I've ever made. Two years after first hearing her, I'm a Little Monster and I am proud. I love my life and I love Gaga!
