A new week

Yesterday I got to hang out with this charmy little troll and his beautiful mother. Very recreational. But with every good thing a less good one seems to follow and I sometimes I wish I was better at handling things smoothly. I guess I have come to terms with myself and my workings though. All we can do is keep trying to learn and improve.


I read a very interesting thing quote in the book shop today. Albert Einstein has more to impress with than mad scientific skills apparently. 

"Imagination is more important than knowledge"

the beauty of home

Even the simplest thing can find its way to complicated.

Como tu no hay dos

Have been through two vicious wasp attacks, and gotten away without having to kill or get stung the last 24 hours. It has been mentally challenging to deal with, haha. But summer is definitely here. Wore my dress to church yesterday and it was so well-adapted to the weather and the weather was so lovely, and the trees were so green. And it just cannot be that bad when it is summer. The sun makes me so so happy!

Como Tu No Hay Dos - DJ Buxxi

Don't know why...

Don't Know Why - Norah Jones

I'm sitting here trying to read through a few papers concerning my future job and I've been playing this song over and over in the background. So relaxing! Instead of  thinking about the veeeerryy interesting text I am reading, I thought "maybe the next cover I'll post will be of this song". Maybe...

Okay, DISCIPLINE WOMAN! Back to reading about "Fire in the fryer"!

Ain't no sunshine when he's gone

Yesterday I visited a REAL studio! You heard me, a studio!
It was a really cool experience! The studio's purpose I believe is to educate future sound-technicians and producers. My friend is one of them. I believe he's going to be successful, but the term is a bit vague, don't you think? To me successful in this sence would be that he will be able to produce some really interesting, cool-sounding music and I cannot wait to hear it all! Whether or not he's going to be recognised/famous is, I think, not directly related to success necessarily. Oh well, it all depends doesn't it?

Anyways, it was super cool to see my very talented friends working with their respective specialties in the studio, I actually felt a bit inferior, but not uncomfortable. That's the influence these guys have over me! We're in the process of recording a cover of "Ain't no sunshine" by Bill Withers. Probably one of my favourite songs of all time. It is simple but so passionate and deep. It has all it needs musically. The lyrics are understandable and can be interpreted in different ways, but the music contributes with a relaxed, mellow mood. It's perfect!

Ain't No Sunshine - Bill Withers

What was also cool was to hear my own voice so clearly in the headphones. At one point I started giggling which resulted in a long time's laughing as it was such a weird thing to hear one's giggle in reverb. We didn't have time to record my part yesterday, but my day will come when I come back from my little "vacation" up north. I'm rambling, am I not? Sorry. I'll leave you to it. It's a sunny day - enjoy!

Never realised what your heart was for

Been planning a lot lately, and been doing things a lot lately. I've come to the conclusion that this summer is going to be the most epic ever because I'll make damn sure to spend all my free time with loved ones. At least, that's what I intend to do. The date's slowly but surely moving closer it feels like, it's creeping up on me. The date when I will get on that plane and fly cross-seas. It makes me feel a bit funny!

Finished writing my first song today, now it only needs some slight approvements, but it's all good! I've also done some shopping lately - I bought the most dreamy-looking dress! The only sad thing about it is that it's very formal in a way so I'll have to wait for the right opportunity to actually wear it, but I guess that's alright...

Oh, and also, I'm going up north in a week or so, can't wait! I need some fresh air, a place to think and clear my head. Can always hope for this kinda weather right?
