Introduction 

Miles To Go

Okay, hi this going to seem like a weird place to start, but I think a lot about my

hands. I was born left-handed. My dad is also lefty, but he’s absolutely convincedthat I’m right-handed. I think it’s because he has always said lefties have to “learn

the world backwards” and (www.disneyfrenzy.blogspot.com) I know he has had a

hard time finding a left- handed guitar every now and then...Whatever the reason,

from the time I started to write he had me use my right hand.It worked.In the rest

of my life I’m left-handed, but I do write with my right hand. So if you don’t like

my hand righting-talk to my dad

 

Just to mess with my left-handed self is a little more, I came across a book about

calligraphy and started teaching myself to wright Chinese characters With myright hand. On a plane. I was flying a chartered jet from Los Ageless to New York.

The flight was turbulent, the ink spilled at least twice, and I managed to get it all

over myself, the paper ,the seats of the plane , and, when I tried to clean up the

mess, the bathroom. My mom was yelling at me for spelling ink everywhere, but I

was really into it.

 

The word calligraphy is Greek for “beautiful writing” believe me, people, If the

greeks saw (www.disneyfrenzy.blogspot.com) what I was doing they’d make upa new word for it. But I was immediately obsessed. I drew the characters for “love”

“luck” “life” and “knowledge” over and over again, first slowly ad carefully like a

kindergartner learning to write, then faster and better

  It’s a good thing the plane wasn’t equipped for skywriting, or probably would

have tried to convince the pilot to take a stab (www.disneyfrenzy.blogspot.com) at

the sign “Rock on.” There’s got to be an ancient Chinese character for that, right

Some people believe that your hand writing tells all your secrets-that the slants

and loops and dots of a scribbled to- do list or a note passed in the class revealed

all there is to know about a person. It’s a cool idea, but really I think the only thing

anyone can tell about me from my handwriting is that I’m supposed to be writing

with my other hand. I do almost everything else-brush my hair, open doors, hold a

fork, and carry the reins of my horses- with my left hand. And youknow , my Dad had a point -I do think the world feels a little bit

backwards sometimes even when Im trying to keep everything going

in the right direction

Maybe because I’ve felt so aware of them, Iv’e always been super

protective of my hands . I know, weird* But I just feel as though my hands are

important. My energy comes from them . Everything I do comes from

them

  My right hand is for art. i use it to play guitar and to write. My left hand is for

caring. For combing my sister hair. For holding hands with my friends. Forcomforting Sophie, my puppy, as we fall asleep (and accessional for slapping my

brother Braison upside the head when he’s picking on me. I know-but everybody

has their limits!)

  Am I right-handed? Am I left handed? Am I neither? Am I a singer or a actor?

Am I a public person (www.disneyfrenzy.blogspot.com) or am I a private person?

Why cant I be all these things? I’m on TV I’m writing a book. But I also love

staying home with my family. And I feel alone-in a good way-inside

my head. Am I the person you know from television,photographs, even this book?

Or are we all,each of us, more exclusive and harder to define? Who am I to say?

  Most people know me as Hannah Montana, but Hannah is a Television Character.

She’s (www.disneyfrenzy.blogspot.com) Fiction.Sure Iv’e put a lot of myself into

her.Iv;e tried to make her come to life. But that doesn't make her real, and i doesn’t

make her me.This is my very own book my first chance to tell a story in my own

words . But to tell my story, I have to talk about Hannah. And that’s okay. Becausethats why I think people relate to Hannah Montana And Miley Stewart-My alter

ego’s on TV.There are multiple sides to all of us.Who we are -and who we might

be if we follow our dreams.

 

It seems like I’m always answering questions about myself: I do interviews on

TV, radio, and for magazines: I talk to paparazzi and strangers on the street. Over

and over I tell people(and so far its always true) that the tour is going to be great,

the show is so much fun, and Im so proud of my album. But nobody ever comes upto me and asks” Hey how do you feel about your hands? How are they connected

your art? What do they mean to you?” This book is the place were I can explain

and joke and explor what is truly important to me, and I want to talk about what

music means to me,and I want to show my life isn;t all sunshine and rainbows. It;s

not like Iv’e never been hurt or broke. Iv’e felt pressure, unwanted, sad , Bored,

and lonely.And (www.disneyfrenzy.blogspot.com) Iv’e felt great joy and

gratitude. I want to share who I really am-not the straight edged. Photo shopped,

glossy girl who appears on magazines covers, But a Nashville-born middle child

who loves Marilyn Manroe and hates vegetables and has always had some ratherfunny ideas about her own hands. When I started working on this book I was

fifteen and turned sixteen by the time I was finished. Im pretty young to be writing

about my life. But I’m considered young for plenty of the things I do

and enjoy. Theirs nothing wrong with being young. Young people

have lots of energy! We have lots to say. Iv’e never had a shortage of

thoughts, ideas or opinions. I know i’m still near the beginning of

my life. Im having a incredible journey and its going super fast. So I

want to plant a mile maker right here-at this particular part of theroad-before its starts to fade as I keep moving forward. I hope you can kick back

and enjoy the ride* hang out with me for a while
