self-promotion

I’ll soon do another photoshooting. I had a very nice evening yesterday with an old friend. I know her from my singing teacher as she used to have the lesson before me and it’s been three years now that we didn’t have contact. But we found each other and it fit right again. So we warmed up our old project to take some pictures – she’s very into all this visual stuff and she really loved my ideas I have for this shooting. Now we are both very motivated to do it. I can’t tell too much, only one thing: I’m not a bird, but I have wings ;-)

The blues’ pouring out of me

WTF! Live seems to hate me these days.  As I woke up this morning, I was highly motivated to finish some songs and do some hard work at the piano. As I sat there and pushed some chords, there was absolutely no sound.  No sound! What the hell! First thing I was thinking that the speakers were broken so I ran into the city to buy an adapter to my headphones so I could test them with the piano.  But still, no sound… :-( So I was really depressed. Damn, I want to play that thing, how can I work on my songs when I don’t have a piano? So I unpacked the self-made woman within me and unscrewed the planking to take a look at the heart of my piano. Twenty screws! What a work. Nothing to see. So twenty screws back in. And, all of a sudden, there was music again! Ha! It helps not to give up at the first problem… Have to go working now :-)

I want it all…

I’m getting very impatient. Last week’s singing lesson was very intensive but I just want more. I know that my voice needs time to grow but I’ve come so far now, it’s so strong that I can hardly keep me back from giving full power. I know it’s dangerous. But I want more – I want it all and I want it now…

help wanted

in anticipation of my participation in the world wide web – yes, I’m gonna have my own homepage – I’m doing a research. I’m checking different artists homepage to find out what pleases me, how a homepage should be built and what it should contain…

Do you have any suggestions?

my light

I see light on the horizon! After life has played real hard on me for the last two months, I’m pretty confident that it’s getting better now. I had a real great meeting on Monday with a friend who offered me to help me with the homepage. He also gave me a link where one can find musicians. I’m going to register there and soon, my band will be complete :-)

I’m really motivated right now. Let’s take this flow into the next months!
