Haven't written in a while, well maybe a couple of days? Mainly because I have had a pretty hectic weekend, which is a good thing, so much better than doing nothing. I moved rooms with the help of my friends the other day, trying to move a big bed from one room to the other in a narrow hallway, without scraping the walls proved to be very difficult. We managed though. I know have a walk in robe in which I have a section dedicated to my "Razzle Dazzle" pieces ha ha. I'll have to take a photo so you know what I mean.

Also, I have been working through mixes this week and I have to say it's going super well. You always get a bit scared in mixing, I find it's a process that can really shape songs to what they are going to be, but because I have been living and breathing this album since January pretty much it's difficult to let go of things to embrace new. I think I've listened to these songs SOOO many times, so I am used to them the way they are, even though I know things change down the line. 

I leave for LA next week to finalize and finish everything, which I am super excited about. I know that I have been saying the album is coming, the album is coming and singles are coming, just know they are but it's taken longer than expected. We want to make sure that this album is exactly how we want it before putting it out there. Quality over everything. I wouldn't dare put something out that wasn't exactly what we want. Quality over everything. It's coming, just making sure it's right. I am so excited though. New songs, playing shows, new set list ha ha. It's one thing hearing the songs back but it's whole different feeling being able to play those songs. I never though this 2nd album process would be as weird as it has been. 

Well, not weird just different, of coarse. You don't think it will be like that but it is. You go into it and come out different, well I did anyway. I've said this before, but it's the time when you question EVERYTHING. What you want from this. The one mistake I made with this record was spending too much time worrying when I should have just embraced things automatically. Once I did embrace the new it became natural. I've always been a big believer in not forcing songs and this record has taught me to believe in that even more so than before. In the beginning process I was trying to write, even though it is something I am against and once I stopped freaking out and trying to write, it all flowed through. 

I've been inspired by so many people with this record. People I worked with, hung out with, met and they were all from totally different worlds to me. Was good. Anyway, I am listening to mixes now and smiling. I am seriously so excited. I've got excitement butterflies ha ha. I'm lame. 

Which reminds me: I watched UP yesterday! It is the most adorable movie ever. I cried at least 3 times during the movie. Bless, it's seriously SO good. I think I'm going to watch it again and again. I think it might even be my new favourite movie. My current favourite is Rattatouille and UP just so happens to be directed by the director as Rattatouille ha ha. Trust. I have to go though. I am busing it to the ocean today, I need to de-stress a little bit, be outside, away from my work place which is my house. 

Love to you all, hope you are all well.
