Band of Four

Hi, me again, for those of you who don't know, names Samiyah.
So, I played sports, even participated in track, basketball tournaments and baseball. Go Lions. I also play games and read and listen to music. All this you know.

However, I do have a job, well, a occupation. I'm a singer, I'd say musician, but it's not just me as there are others. Comprised of five members. I'm the only girl in the group. I sing and play guitar and occasionally the violin. I always thought of names but than it was an idea, A evolution really.

"Joyland" was one and it was my first band, same members. There was a story behind them, entertainers from a carnival of another realm that came to the surface as fire streaked through the lands. A carousal and a roller coaster in the back above was our logo/mascot. It was temporarily, the lasting, we had done one album of the name. 13 songs is all it had. We didn't depart, obviously, maybe it was intended to be a single brand album.

I feel I wrote all this before.

"The Lasting" was our next project for a band that told the next chapter of "Joyland". As you can guess it was to be a long lasting band. The entertainers from another realm was to be on Earth for a long time. However, it lasted for two albums and one member would end up leaving and returning later. The two albums each has 12 songs, none had the band name so, know one would know who did them. The first album was called "Diamond Skulls" about the evolution and phase of men's mind or something. The cover was 12 crystal skulls surrounding a red/yellow/purple flower group in the center. Background was a single color of black. The second album was called "Months after Dark", that's all I can really say. The 12 months was the theme thou. Maybe it was the Mayan calander as a icon, I don't know.

Ok, so three albums in, two more to go, yes 2, one is a semi-successor to "The Lasting" and one is the current phase.

The band now took a semi-different turn while keeping 12 as a theme. This time a new member came in and this is his only time. I took the name Beatrice as my stage name as I never had one. I was always just a singer and all. Beatrice was from "Dante's Inferno", and the new album was a prequel to the first album, by "Joyland", a origin. We, entertainers, came from a realm of 12 planets. The album was called "Inferno Space". We took the idea of naming the band "Beatrice", I guess it was to announce my name. We had that one album and we get noticed by an ex-member who came back to take the newbies place, I did say it was temporarily.

But he came back, XD. I'll get to him. Hold on.

The newest band had the original members and we need a refresh. I came up with "Headache", but I didn't want to head bang. We needed a name that shows a resurrection, like a rise from the dead. So I chose "Baby New Year" and one chose to have Father Time as a mascot. This is the first time we had a icon face. Father Time was a skeleton who wore a steampunk outfit; black gloves, a top hat with a clock and chains. He was bear chested, I say was but its current. Father Time IS the mascot for the current "Baby New Year".

Members include(officially): James and Jack(brothers and piano guitar players), Eddie Thomas(the mascot face and guitarist), "Pack-Man"(drummer) and me, Samiyah, AKA "Beatrice"(singer and violinist).

Baby New Years' first album was member titled "Eddie Thomas".

Trans-Reflection: The Body of Two

In one world, there is a boy, 24, male, dark brown hair, and average short in height. In another, there is a girl, 24, female, dark brown hair, average short in height. The male has brown eyes, the gitl has blue. One has no job, lives with his family and not all that out-going. A complete opposite to the girl who is athletic, and slightly punk, both, however are bookworms, nerds. The male is hearing impaired and the female has glasses. Ones name is Ali, the other is Samiyah. Both are one individual being.

"I am on the computer", Ali screams out to his mother

This is Ali, sitting down on a vanilla colored couch, typing away the invisible ink as his fingers clicks each letter one by one in his pajamas. His mother, "Mama", is sitting on the table chair by her sister who is cooking. Ali is in a Superman bottom and  a top of Mario Mario of those "Super Mario" games of Nintendo Co. He is across from the bathroom where a mirror is lifted upon the wall with golden framework on top of swirls and illusions of grandeur.

Mirrors are a one way looking visual of oneself. Looking at it, one sees him or herself in appearance and attitude. if a mirror is behind the looker, than a row of that person appears. Reflections or copies, world after world. The mirror is a door to another world between one and another. Ali looks at the door of the bathroom and pictures himself in front of that window. What he is on the other side.

Samiyah is laying down on her bed, back on her pillows, one leg bent upwards moving her head up and down to music. She is wearing skinny jeans, white socks, a jersey of her favorite baseball team The Lions. Headphones are on her ears blasting rock n' roll. Aaru is her cousin; thin, red hair, acting cool most of the time when he is not.

"...Kings of Amerrrrica", so sings Samiyah

Samiyah has a mirror to, a mirror she only could perceive as anything but. She hardly know what awaits on the other side as she never really thinks it. Yes she spends time reading fantasy but, doesnt look at it like Ali does and goes into it as if it was actually real. Worlds in fantasy are indeed real, the fantasy is just the surface.

"The mirror of normalcy", both say together

American Wizard

So I am in America,
Whatever there is from terminology to schools,
to shops I interact.
I went to Ilvermorny,
my government is called MACUSA,
my wand is from one of the four,
and my shop is in a alley of a kind if any.

Four founders,
Im a Pukwudgie,
My heart guides me,
Ilvermony for 7 years,
an Auror in Detroit,
a professor part time,
Books are specialty.

I think my wand is Jonkers,
A muggle-born you see,
I feel a connection,
but I hope to see.
My wand handle is of a sword,
Thou a knight I am not,
I am a just a wizard you seek,

My store is very mature,
Like Magicians, Witch Hunters,
and maybe more.
That's all for now.

Names Mal Finnr,
Father Durmstrang,
Mother Uagadou,
I know plant magic,
I know animals.
My Animagus is unknown,
A mix for sure.
My guardian is a camel,
Slow but smart.

A watcher of Quidditch,
Go Gryffindor.
Player of Quadpot,
If it still exists.

Gryffindor Pride

Arrogant is what you have to be,
To be on the house Godric Gryffindor.
Bravery and Chivarly is what you gain,
Nervous is what you are,
Daring is what you;ll become.

A lion,
A brave heart Lion,
Full of Fire and Rage,
Orange plus Red,
A burning desire.

To set out on the right path,
Thou you might not care,
Or fear the change,
It take some to push you,
It takes a Slytherin to make you take the leap.

The hat placed me on Gryffindor,
I placed myself in the house of Rowena Ravenclaw.
1,
2,
Till my third year.
Brother one,
Brother two,
Sister,
All Gryffindor after.
Father Slytherin,
Mother Ravenclaw.
Pushers Pushes Push.

I am in the House of Gryffindor.
