When it comes to being rich and famous, I would have to say one thing - it is all an utter lie! You would think that you would have a better life if you were rich and famous, but whoever told you that would be is lying out of their ass! In fact you have to work harder and you have a more secluded life. For you, it is a simple thing to run to the corner for a pint of milk and bread. For myself, it takes either completely changing my appearance or being surrounded by tens of people who know who I am and want something to do with me, even if it only lasts 10 seconds for them.

Who am I and how do I know all of this? My name is Lucy Heartfillia and I am the lead singer and lead guitarist of an all girl rock band called 'The Mages'. A few months ago I could have done all of this. I could have walked around the corner shop and I would have been fine. I could have stayed in school and no one would have batted an eye lid. Instead, my friends and I decided to come up with the ingenious idea of being in a band. It's not everyday that your friends and yourself decide to do something like this and keep to it. Believe me. I have been in many bands in my time, I've played with so many people and at so many venues, I should be known by everyone in the industry by now on first name basis! But ever since The Mages came together, we've always stuck together and we actually hit the ground running! It started off with a few battle of the band nights and a few birthday parties/ home made gigs here and there, then suddenly after one upper scale battle of the bands at a massive venue in town, we're the next best thing to watch with a record deal and a manager!

Don't get me wrong I love being in a band with my best friends and all, it is an absolute dream come true. But the fact is that you can not have a love life when you are in a famous band. You're either paired with someone who is a random guy of the opposite sex that you happen to be friends with or the person that you are dating at the time is stalked by fans and journalists until they break up with you due to the stress - and that's even if you manage to bag yourself a guy in the first place! I would love to say that I am one of those people that will get a guy and keep him until the day that I die, but the truth is….. I hardly ever see a guy that is worth my time. The only guys I see other than family are the stage, lighting and sound technicians of the gigs that I do and they just perv on me the entire time we are touring! Not helpful at all when I'm trying to get into a relationship.

A few months ago, my manager Mira-Jane came to me with the best news! We are going on our first tour! She managed to bag us a support slot with all boy rock band All Fired Up! I am a massive fan of theirs ever since I was introduced to them by my guitarist Levy. She loves one of them in particular, but I've always had a soft spot for the lead singer Natsu Dragneel. When we all first got told about the tour, we all were jumping around my apartment screaming in delight for about half an hour. Poor Mira-Jane's ears probably were bleeding by the end of it. This was the big break that we were looking for and she managed to do it after being our manager for a few months! We have only just signed our contract with the record label and was introduced to Mira-Jane a few months ago and now we were going on a world tour with one of the biggest bands right now! Things could not get better for us!

"Lucy! Hurry up! The guys are waiting for us!" I hear Levy screaming at me from my living room. I've just been finishing packing for our tour and I am so excited! I've just searched my room for any spare guitar leads, picks, microphones, clothing, gadgets, anything at all that I could missed in the next few months. Looking around my room after finishing my final check, I take one look at a picture of all of us together that sits on my bedside cabinet and a picture of my mum and dad together next to it. I kiss the picture and whisper to them 'Wish me luck' as I always do, and turn the light off and shut the door.

"Finally. Come on Lucy let's go! Erza was threatening to break one of my guitars if you did not leave within the hour." Levy said to me exasperated. I just giggled to myself. Poor Levy. She loves her instruments so much. She would hate to see any damage come to them. Especially by the hands of our drummer Erza. Erza may be lovely and one of the most loyal people I know, but she can be very scary at times and she genuinely keeps us mostly in line and goes through with any threat she makes to us. No wonder Levy was moaning for me to hurry up.

"I'm coming, I'm coming. I just wanted to do one last check. Remember how I left my bank card here last time we did a gig that was far away?" I reminded Levy and I shuddered at the memory, remembering that I had no money to get home so I had to busk my way back from Edolas to Magnolia!

I take a deep breath, grabbed my hiscox case carrying my pride and joy - my acoustic guitar that I use on stage - and my laptop bag and nod my head to Levy signalling that I am ready to leave, who leaves my apartment so I lock the door.

I smile to myself thinking that in a few short hours, I am going to be going on a tour bus with one of the biggest bands on the planet leaving all of this behind! Man I am a lucky girl.
