It's been awhile since I last saw you

Good song ("It's been awhile" by Staind.)

BUT That's not what I'm surrently listening to. I'm CURRENTLY listening to "Come Together" by The Beatles.



So...I haven't posted in a while.

And, I've been thinking a lot lately. (Using up the time that I would otherwise be using to post on my blog.)
And doing homework, but that's besides the point.

School is amazing this semester. Just being here puts me in a good mood. So far this year I have met a few new people that I really enjoy hanging out with. New musicians, theatre geeks, singers, writers, and a couple dancers. You know the drill. College "artsy" people.

Anyways, I've been doing a lot of "jamming" and I've even written a few new songs lately. Good ones. I think the more songs I write, the better they get. Which is obnoxious because I keep having new favorites and I can never deciede which songs I want to perform. So unless I want to play for three hours straight (I have enough material to do so) I have to pick and choose. Something I have never liked doing. Go figure.

I am playing a show October 31 (halloween! Yay!) And I have a set list planned, but I am having trouble figuring out what order to play them in. They don't make sense "chronologically" in ANY order. They are all over the place, so I guess it really doesn't matter. What I NEED to figure out though, is what song to start with (to get people's attention) and what song to end with (To leave my voice and melodies in their head forever more. HAh.) So....If you have any suggestions, gimme gimme gimme......please.

For now, I'm done. But I will post later on (When I have time after homework) more about what I've been thinking lately. And what I've realized. Just a preview.

Never drink Soymilk before trying out for a solo in "I Will Always Love You" by Dolly Parton. Just a Tip.
