It's only been two weeks in school and already I have developed a love affair with my T-Square. Oh T-square, without you and Triangle I do not know how I would survive Fundementals of Perspective and Observational Drawing! (Of course, I'm also in love with my little pot of rubber cement at the moment too.)

"What?" you say, "the hell?"

It all kind of happened really fast. One minute I am working at Target, and then next I'm sitting in the Admin Offices of the Art Institute of Los Angeles/Southern California/Orange County working out the details of admission and getting up to my eyeballs in debt on student loans.

Then BOOM, classes started three days later.

I am ridiculously happy about it all but still weirded out a little. I came out to Cali to find a simple day job, live quietly and focus on my DJing. Life had other plans evidently!

So now I am a first quarter student in Graphic Design, my classes and my teachers are WONDERFUL....and they are quietly burying me in homework... ha ha ha ha! (No seriously, I have about four things to do for each class every week. They told me the homework projects would be about 4 hours for each class but it's more like 8 hours for each class. Zoinks!)

More later (now that I have the interwebs!)

Much love,

Hello again. Screw the "where do I begin" crap. Let's just dive right in. As you know I made it out to Cali in one piece for the most part. Mark, Hugh & Kurt took me in, and they've been not only sheltering me and giving me a bed to sleep in, but they also feed me...and so far have asked little of me beyond what family would ask of another family member. I've been treated exceptionally well. They are wonderful and I am incredibly grateful. In other news, the DJing. Because of this unemployment stint I've been able to practice and practice and practice my little heart out every single day. I'm getting better and better. And more confident in the areas I felt I was lacking in. I've also been walking nearly every day in the morning, really breaking a sweat and bringing my heart rate up. I can tell I've lost about 10 pounds so far. I've got a lot more work ahead of me, and like the job hunt I am not giving up or slowing down. So anyway, that's the basics of what's been going on lately. A few weeks ago the guys took me to Vanguard in Los Angeles to see James Zabiela do a gig there. The night was really wonderful and kind of surreal. I'll tell you more about that later. Right now I want to walk down to the little antique store/second hand store about three blocks away and see if the lady that owns/runs the place will buy an old brooch from me. If not, ebay! Life isn't perfect, but it's been a lot better than it could have turned out. I'm blessed, I'm safe and my worries are manageable. And I'm really REALLY grateful for that. -em

I'm no longer living in Champaign-Urbana Illinois.

I left for a variety of reasons. If you are hot to know, email me.

Meanwhile, I drove 2,750 freakin' miles and I now reside with very dear friends here in Long Beach California. Currently job hunting, so if anyone knows of anything, drop me a line please. Much appreciated.

Meanwhile, life is sweet, kittens are awesome, the night jasmine is amazing, and I'm over joyed to be near the ocean again. =)

And all I can say is "WOW". It is simply GORGEOUS Tech House/Techno.
Each sample of each track is an incredible treat with these rich deeper sounds and clear quality beats. I must have this entire release.

Go to beatport and listen NOW. You will be just floored with how wonderful it is!!

If you ever wondered why it is EXACTLY that you love me, here it is:
It's because I am your music pimp mama and I always lead you to quality.

And because I love you so much and because I want you to be part of "The Next Big Thing", I bring you this.....because people will be talking about this two CD set for years to come. This is like Sasha's GU 13 Ibiza. Like BT's "This Binary Universe". Classic electronic music CDs whose quality lasts for years. And it should be in your CD collection or on your MP3 player because even if you aren't into electronic music, you're gonna LOVE this.



The first CD is lush and ambient with a gorgeous flow.
The second CD is more club/dance style.

There is an interview with James about them here with samples of what is on the CD: http://www.renaissance.com/eflyers/zabiela/JZinterview/JZinterview.htm

Then click here and listen to the first 20 minutes of CD one:
http://www.renaissance.com/eflyers/zabiela/zabielapromo/zabielapromo.html

Don't worry, I won't say "I told you so". =D
You can find the CD on iTunes (though I don't have a link for that)
or on Amazon:

While you are checking out his CD blog Part 3 has a link to FREE TRACK from the 2nd CD:

Also because I love you,

Things have been busy around here. I was up in New Hampshire for family reasons in January. Since being home I've been wrapped up in all manner of this and that. Hopefully March will be more exciting!
I have a confirmed house party that I am DJing on March 21st and possibly another public event in March as well, but I'll have to withhold those details until I have them all.
I hope everyone's Valentines Day was excellent. I know mine was.
Until later! Much love to you.

GAME RULES:
Step 1: Put your iPod MP3 player on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 35 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING! Oh what-ever. Denied. Go ahead and have fun.
(If you want to do this, post this in your blog and I'll see if I can guess your songs.)

I did omit some tracks that came up on my player, simply because they were just instrumentals or where it was just sounds or random chatter, OR it was in Japanese and I couldn't find the proper spelling. One track I did look up the lyrics for, only to make sure I got them correct as they are in Macedonian. (I know, what?!?) A few are obscure but I've got a lot of known songs in there. Promise. =)

1. "Move yourself, you always live your life never thinking of the future. Prove yourself. You are the move you make, take your chances win or loser."
2. "There's a war goin' on, outside your door, some freedoms been failed, the rest soon to fall, don't worry bout that if you want that shiny car, if you want to succeed, if you want to go far.."
3. "Well the first time I saw lightning strike I saw it on the ground, sixteen feet below the street the sky came crashing down"
4. "All I wanna do is to thank you, even tho I don't know who you are, you let me change lanes while I was driving in my car."
5. "Wanted to feel the joy, happiest girl I ever knew, why'd you smile the smile you do?"
6. "Baby baby I feel this sweet sensations, honey honey looks like a superstar, she got a promise of love struck facination, what am I to do? How am I to know who you are?"
7. "I have burned my tomorrow and I stand inside today, at the edge of the future, and my dreams all fade away."
8. "Everything is good, and well, I'm here again with a sunshine smile upon my face, my friends, are close at hand."
9. "Dali znaesh mila majko, shto sum ne srekjna. Cel den doma sama sedam, nadvor ne smejam."
10. "Morning lemon!"
11. "Like the crack of a whip I snap attack, back to back in this thing called rap...I'm the lyrical Jesse James."
12. "Sometimes when this place gets kinda empty, the sound the breath fades with the light. I think about the loveless facination, under the milkyway tonight"
13. "John the Revelator put him in an elevator take him up to the highest high"
14. "I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears, the sweetest dreams of you, I look into the stars, I look into moon."
15. "..give it...back...how can we dance when our earth is turning..how do we sleep when our beds are burning..."
16. "Do you wanna go party? We'll get funky there, party! Drink a little wine, party! Have a funky time, party! Come on baby, sexy lady let's go out tonight."
17. "I don't care for much. Got no time talk. I reason all that I came to find,
and it fuels desire..."
18. "You don't need your name up in bright lights, you're a rock star! And some tin foil with a glass pipe is your guitar - now yes it is"
19. "I don't want excuses. I don't want your smiles. I don't want to feel like we're apart a thousand miles. I don't want your attitude. I don't want your things. I don't want a phone that never rings..."
20. "Help, I have done it again. I have been here many times before. Hurt myself again today and, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame."
21. "Dinner in Soho. Hotel in Hyde Park. See the city by the day and nightlife after dark, dance to club tracks, eat vindaloo. All the plans we made, they went away with you."
22. "We don't like it when the city lights start fading, when the city lights fading then we can't get down"
23. "My mother loved it so she said, sad eyed pearl and drop lips, glancing pierce through writer man, spoke hushed and frailing hips"
24. "City's breaking down on a camel's back. They just have to go 'cause they don't know wack."
25. "The pebbles you've arranged in the sand, they're strange. They speak to me like constellations as we lie here."
26. "Like a sentence to death, I've got no options left. I've got nothing to show now, I'm down on the ground I've got seconds to live and you can't go now."
27. "..I'm grateful to you...I'm grateful to you...between the music...(followed by MC chatter)"
28. "Breathe in...now I took what I want, but you find that, everything has gone. Follows to my shadow, you wont follow in my plateau."
29. "You couldn't even bring yourself to stay, oh no. You had to go spoil it all. I know you had to go, now I find these endlessly colourblind days to fill. You never will."
30. "Days like this are sweet, I'm talking in my sleep...I think you're goin' soft, I know it's there for me...And saturdays are short, I'm walin' with my dog..."
31. "You didn't stop to look round. You were gone before I hit the ground. You went on you're way and no prayer was said.."
32. "I would...give it up, give it up...give it up, give it up...I would...treat me good, treat me good...give it up, give it up in the way that I should..."
33. "Foolish...makes no sense to me. Wasteful....where fear breeds deceit. Bullets...screaming
from out of nowhere and tanks roam the streets.."
34. "Warrior....show me the way. Warrior, show me the way. Show me how you got to be so strong. Want you there, if ever I'm wrong. I've been thinkin' about you since I began. Give me time, I'm doin' all I can. You've been stealin' my attention all day. I hope to get you comin' my way."
35. "Pandas...are Chinese. They like bamboo. They're very cuddly looking. Many attempts at breeding pandas in captivity have proven fruitless. However, when in the wild...they do it PANDA STYLE. Ladies and Gentlemen, PANDA STYLE."
 
Whoo-hoo!
