so i will start over.
things have been crazy busy (although i guess i always say that). i am still waiting for that day when i wake up and things have slowed down and i have time to get around to all the cool stuff i want to do. somehow i maintain the belief that it will happen, haha.
despite my crazy hectic life, i have decided to keep one of hugo and jasmine's adorably cute offspring. i named her belle starr. she was the one i named from the get go when all the puppies were born. she is all black except for a white star on her chest and a few white hairs on the tip of her tail (the border collie white tipped tail). she was always my favourite. i have wanted a dog for quite some time, but i have never had the life to accommodate one. for those of you who don't know, belle starr is probably the most bad ass female outlaw ever. she was stylish, well educated, and played classical piano. she has been called the female jesse james. look her up.
i decided it was time for a change.
my plans have changed around a few times in the last few months (like i guess they always do). i realized that if i really took off to europe for a few months that my career would basically start over. when i came back i would have to start at the bottom of the pile, back in vernon where i didn't want to be, working somewhere that doesn't give me a chance to fully spread my wings and do what i am good at. don't get me wrong, i have been appreciative to have the opportunities that i have had and to learn the things i have learned. but i am starting to feel really restless. i have a goal and i have been actively working towards it. i want to be in vancouver and working in a major market.
so i am working towards vancouver in the spring. that's my goal. and being locked down (with a dog). and i feel pretty good about it.
and i am also stuck on the idea of a music blog again, but i don't know how to angle it. like a direction. i guess i am still working on that. i've also been working on using my social media (facebook and twitter) to share cool stuff that i find on the internets like a good radio personality should. i am trying to be more in the know of whats up in pop culture. it has actually been kinda fun. i have come across some really cool stuff.
for a good listen on this thursday afternoon, check out my current song obsession.
for those of you who didn't hear, i did my very first open mic like two weeks ago. it was the first time that i had gotten up in front of completely strangers and played guitar. i was REALLY nervous. i played this song (and stumbled my way through it... but i was determined. because i love it).
hope you love it as much as i do.
