DONE!!!

...With the first performance...haha! I loved it! What a rush to stand before people and sing a song you wrote. It is a beautiful thing to have people clap for you after you put the hard work into putting a set together.

This week has for sure been very stressful. I had to figure out what 2 songs I was going to sing...once that was figured out then I had to sign up for practice times. I had to write lead sheets...which I found I am not very good at, and then I had to make sure I had the band I needed as well as back up singers and all. I sang an original I wrote called "Fooling the World" and then a song by Sixpence None the Richer "Kiss Me." It was so much fun to work from the ground up with people to get this together.

The crazy part was writing a chorus to my song in one afternoon. Wednesday in my song writing class I was told that I didn't have a chorus...funny, I thought I did...but Warren thought differently, so I needed to add a chorus. I wrote a chorus, came up with music for it, and had a new lead sheet for my band all in one afternoon...crazy! But we pulled it off...I only forgot a few words...(we know how I am with my own songs right Kev? hehe)

Well, I am tired and kinda on a rush from the show tonight...so I'm going to go. Sorry this is kinda silly/sporadic...

I hope you all are doing well and having a great time in school, at work, and at home! I love and miss you all so much!

Have a great weekend!!! (more updates and pics to come)

God Bless,
