Life in April

Hey Guys!

What can I say?  April was an awesome month for me.

I got a scholarship for my achievement in writing lyrics, I wrote and produced my first original song, I attended an amazing music expo, I went to New York, came back, and  I organized my bedroom inside and out and donated bags overflowing with clothes to goodwill.  Phew!  And now it's May...

I cannot wait for what lies ahead.  But before I dive into tomorrow's beginnings, here are some things I took away from April 2013:

Be yourself.
"The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are." - Joseph Campbell

Embrace every moment.
"There are only two ways to live your life.  One is as though nothing is a miracle.  The other is as though everything is a miracle." - Albert Einstein

Make use of your God-given talents.
"If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you.  If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you." - The Gospel of Thomas

I'll leave you with this food for thought.  Here's to April, here's to you, and here's for everything tomorrow brings!  Cheers ;)

ASCAP EXPO

Hey guys! It's day two of the ASCAP expo here in Hollywood, and I'm trying to keep up with the flow around here. There's so many fascinating panelists and seminars that it's hard for a girl with big dreams and a little notebook to keep up! I've decided that at the end of the weekend I will go back and try to re-live all the highlights from the expo on this blog, but it's going to take me a couple days to sort through all of my thoughts. My mind is spinning with inspiration! Everyone I've met and all the panelists I've had the honor to listen to have definitely made a huge impact on my musical mindset and perspective for the better, and I can't wait to share their wisdom with you. Stay tuned!

Love you guys!
