Hi, I'm Laurie Maitland and I have a story to tell you all about my own 2 songs, entitled, "Open The Door" and "Somebody To Give My Heart To". For the music video of "Open The Door", I put clips of myself singing in the basement, swimming in the pool, coming out of the water to read the Woman's Day magazine and opening the door with a key, Ruben Kincaid, played by Dave Madden, driving a car to the family house, trying to open the door and asking if anybody else is home, taken from "The Partridge Family", the young Michael J. Fox and his girlfriend, sitting on the back porch, taken from the McDonald's commercial, Kathy, played by Lauren Chapin, coming through the door, taken from "Father Knows Best", Billy Joe Jive, trying to open the door with a key, taken "Sesame Street", Mr. James Anderson, played by Robert Young, hugging his daughter, Kathy, played by Lauren Chapin in the kitchen, taken from "Father Knows Best", Fred Flinstone, being locked outside the house, banging on the door loudly, shouting for his wife, Wilma to open it up for him, taken from "The Flinstones", Mary Cadorette, opening the door to meet her dog after going out shopping for groceries at the supermarket, Augie Doggie & Doggie Daddy hearing Snagglepuss knocking and opening the door, Yogi Bear knocking on the door, calling for the chef to come in to the kitchen and grandma opening the door to let the rest of her family come inside the family home to take pictures from a Polaroid camera, taken from the Polaroid commercial.
Here is a concept music video of that song:

Here are the lyrics to that song:
To Jesus, your son, your gift of love
May be the holy door
God uses to open the heart of a child
Love is the key that unlocks the door
When I'm closing in, your perfect smile
Can open the door to this heart of mine
When Jesus knocks at the door of your heart
Redeemer of heaven and earth
Open the door and invite Him in
He will give you new life and rebirth
He'll give you the spirit to live in your heart
The greatest gift that ever will be
Not only for life here on this earth
But forever in eternity
Don't leave me stranded
Outside in the cold
During wintertime
I need you to keep me warm
Open the door and let me in
'Cause I need you to talk to me
When I'm locked up deep inside
Open the door and let me in
When I'm tied up in a bondage
And there is no [Read More]

I am 17 & I am recently applying for the Hacer Ronald McDonald Scholarship. I've heard many good things of this foundation. I decided to apply to get helped for college. I am raised by one parent, my father. I am actually the only female in my apartment I have two brothers & my wonderful father. I have been through abandonment by my mother. This caused a series of which lead to health problems. Being through all this has made me a stronger person with the help of my father & my brothers. I plan to become a pediatrician I am determined to give my all. Hopefully I will get this scholarship & fulfill my dream. I have faith.
