Recording comes…quite slowly.

29 11 2008

Well, I had a friend come and help me and we figured it out. But now I’m starting to get frustrated with the recording process. It’s very slow and it gets frustrating when I make a mistake. Hopefully I can finish without compromising the quality.





:-(

28 11 2008

Well I hope you all out there had a good Thanksgiving. I didn’t really. I wanted to start recording yesterday but the recording software decided it wanted to be dumb and stubborn. Oh well, I’m having a friend who knows the equipment to help out. Can’t wait to get started recording, I’m just itching to finish it and listen and critique myself.

Yesterday I was thinking of a song: He Didn’t Throw the Clay Away. The song can almost be a Thanksgiving song. Thanking God that He didn’t throw you or me away. It’s so beautiful.





Recording Starts!

26 11 2008

Well it’s time. I have everything to start recording. Yikes! I have lots to record in a little bit of time. Hopefully most of the songs will go smoothly. I’ll have some pictures up later of me recording.





Gas Prices!

25 11 2008

Well it’s officially a miracle. Gas is $1.99, how amazing! It hasn’t been this low in forever. I must admit that I am quite mad about the prices. When I was workin two years ago gas was at about $3.40. Ugggg. How much money could I have saved? Lots! Oh well.

On the lighter side I have a good chance at a job at iHop. Stalkerz!!! I kind of want the job because I know someone who works there but I don’t really know if I can do it, since I’ve never worked a job like this. If you pray I really need a job.

Well hopefully recording will start soon. After it starts it should be easy.





Well, Last Try

I think this is the one I’m going to go with. I love the picture because of the simplicity and mystery. The text is simple…trying not to detract from the picture. I chose yellow text because it was a little hard to see black text down there. There will be a poll somewhere I want to know which picture you think is best.

Alternate CD Cover!

Here’s my second choice. But maybe you guys can help me put the best qualities of both pictures. I’ve found that the other picture doesn’t have enough to create a better cloud cover.

Here’s my proposed cd cover. That’s all I need to say. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I took the picture myself.

I also have a way to record with someone’s keyboard! Thanks.

I’m sorry. I uploaded it onto the internet then I forgot to put it in the blog. I feel so dumb.





Boring Christmas Party

22 11 2008

Well, I though it would be fun, but my family went to my mom’s work Christmas party. Some Christmas party. The food wasn’t very good, actually it was kind of dry. The music was blaring, it also happened to be rock and rap. What kind of music is that to play at the Christmas party. They had two singers, the first one has a great voice but the key was horrible for him making it hard to understand a word he said, the second one was good to but had the same problem. I heard a total of three Christmas songs that evening, they claimed it was because people don’t like hearing Christmas songs to early but if I’m going to a Christmas party I want to hear Christmas music. Over all the whole thing was hoirrible. Other than that I liked it, I think the best party was getting a $1.50 coffee mug. How do I know the price? They left the price tag on the bottom. Uggg.





Goals Being Met

20 11 2008

Well, goals are being met. My piano teacher says I’ll have the Mozart Turkish March ready by Christmas time. I’m so happy. Classical piano has actually been getting better for me. Although I must admit that it is still a challenge.

With the progress of the cd my piano teacher has shown me a better arrangement for a song. I’m so happy! YAY!





Mele Kalikimaka!

18 11 2008

jones-sodaMerry Christmas! Well I guess it’s just a little to early for that. Well if you didn’t know mele kalikimaka is Merry Christmas in Hawaiian. My sister and I went out and bought jones soda! Love it…it’s a little bit too sugary but it’s really good. It was fun trying to say that over and over again. I can’t wait for Thanksgiving. I found out last year that I love turkey stuffing. Which now that I think about it, it sounds really nasty but it tastes really good. There’s a lot to be thankful for. You can read more when I post my Thanksgiving post. Bye!
